What an insightful and informative course! Whether you want to learn more about the impact of someone else’s trauma, or your own, Kerri is a great instructor. - Colleen Esposito

I have always felt a disconnect within myself, an emptiness that I never fully understood. I was in therapy previously, to no avail.  I was tired. I needed to understand ME and why couldn't I progress forward in my life mentally/emotionally? Why did I carry so many residual feelings from childhood and trauma that I just couldn't shake off? What was wrong with me? Do others feel this way? When presented with Kerri's Certified Trauma Specialist Training Program, to be honest, I thought to myself, I don't want to coach others when I, myself, am struggling so badly! I secretly and with embarrassment felt defeated that there was NO way I could continue in my professional life to coach, supervise, or counsel anyone. I was crumbling apart and quickly! I needed to do something. Kerri was recommended by a counter partner, and I tried so many other things but never took a course.... so I did! After 51 years on this earth, I FINALLY had clarity! I have FINALLY connected the dots and filled in the empty gaps in my life that now make sense. Kerri truly was put in my path and taught me to understand myself, so that I am able to be more patient, tolerable understanding, and empathetic of others. Kerri's constant motivation and encouragement pushed me to heights I never thought I would reach. All thanks to Kerri for inspiring me to be excellent in all that I do. Thank you for seeing and bringing out the best in me. Thank you for teaching me the skills to be a better human! - Laura Silva
