Amy Rebekah Burkett

Amy’s scholarship and embodied practice of trauma - informed leadership has been a holistic exploration through personal, professional, and academic development.  She practiced over twenty years as a holistic health practitioner, working as a licensed massage therapist, childbirth educator, birth doula, yoga teacher, community herbalist, and group facilitator, all with a committed focus to supporting trauma healing through the body and relationally through the collective, while cultivating skills for resiliency.  Advanced trauma educational trainings include Somatic Trauma Resolution, Somatic Experience, Neuro Affective Relational Model, Shadow work, and Community Resilience Model from the Trauma Resource Institute.

Amy has been pursuing her passion for emerging culture change and is passionate about supporting the people who are supporting people, especially inside of healing containers. Specifically, Amy is passionate about supporting leaders, and those who support others, in learning to self-regulate their nervous systems in service to co-regulation as a leadership practice. Amy is an avid supporter of all people doing the work to heal from trauma, individual and collective, and she brings warmth, humor, compassion and much passion to the groups that she works with.
