Rebekah Wheeler
Trauma Healing Specialist, Birth Processing Coach
ABOUT reBEKAHI have sat with countless individuals, holding space as they faced and healed their traumas. My training is as a Certified Nurse Midwife, sitting with people as they went through the arduous journey of labor, and supporting them in grief related to fertility and pregnancy loss. Several years ago, I expanded my practice to begin supporting new parents to process traumatic births. Through that work, I developed a method based on Hakomi, Somatic Experiencing, Grof Breathwork and other trauma healing modalities that helps support people through healing all kinds of traumatic wounds. I know that it is possible to heal trauma, be it from difficult births, sexual abuse, fertility grief, pregnancy loss, and more.
In just a few sessions together, you can begin to come through the trauma and re-enter your life feeling whole and confident again.

How Common is Trauma?30% of people report that their birth experience was traumatic
1 in 3 women and 1 in 5 men experience childhood sexual abuse.
Trauma imprints on our memory and our body, getting in the way of everyday life. Unresolved trauma can have a lasting impact on many aspects of everyday life and relationship.
What is Trauma?Emotional trauma can occur when you have an experience that overwhelms your ability to cope
A traumatic event has the following elements:
A feeling of overwhelm
Loss of control
Fear for your safety or the safety of someone you love
An inability to get out or leave the situation
True healing is possible
The good news is that when we are ready to face and sit with our trauma, processing the experience with an experienced professional can help relieve these symptoms and shift the way the story is held in your memory and body.

The Alembic
Berkeley, CA
September 13th
Originated by Stanislav Grof, the pioneering psychedelic researcher, and his late wife, Christina Grof, Grof Breathwork draws from time-honored techniques for shifting consciousness. Through an immersive practice that uses accelerated breathing and evocative music, one can access the healing potential of these states.
This approach is grounded in the skillful support of each individual’s intrinsic healing intelligence and capacity to move towards wholeness.
