The Three Phase Model of Trauma Recovery

The page on the Three-Phase Model of Trauma Recovery explains the process of healing from trauma, which is broken into three intentional stages:
 
  • Safety and Stabilization: Establishing emotional and physical safety.
  • Trauma Memory Processing: Addressing and processing traumatic memories.
  • Reconnection: Rebuilding a healthy sense of self and connecting to the world again.

This model, developed by Judith Herman, uses various healing methods to support each phase. For more details on each phase and related healing modalities, visit the full page here.
