How Polyvagal Theory Can Help Clients Regulate A Trauma Response

As we know, after trauma, a client's body often holds on to fear.
This can make it difficult to be around others as their nervous system is on constant high alert.

To change this, we need to help clients become aware of how their body is responding to threat. According to Stephen Porges, PhD, polyvagel theory can help the brain modulate the body's reaction after trauma.
