Trauma overwhelms us with lasting stress, manifesting as protective behaviors; by fully processing these physical sensations, we can free ourselves from the burdens they create. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Cedric Bertelli. Cedric is the founder of the Emotional Health Institute, a non-profit organization that aims to create communities where individuals, children, and families are thriving emotionally, free from the otherwise long-lasting effects of fear and trauma.

He began his training in Emotional Resolution in 2009 in France and has continued this work in the United States since 2011.
