Patricia Celan
Trauma

Trauma is universal.
Research has found that 61% of men and 51% of women experience some form of trauma in their lifetime, and 90% of people with mental illness experience trauma by the end of their lives - usually some form of abuse.

Growing up in an abusive environment as a child predisposed Dr. Celan to developing complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD). However, the illness did not manifest until she experienced a series of traumatic events as an adult. The effects of delayed onset CPTSD derailed her life for years.

As a result of these events and her awakening that standard psychiatry is inadequately trauma-informed and can sometimes cause more harm than good to traumatized patients, Dr. Celan embarked on a mission to create a new integrated approach to heal the effects of trauma.

Dr. Celan independently sought certification as an Integrative Trauma Practitioner (ITP-2) and became certified as a Yoga Teacher (YTT-200) and a Laughter Yoga Leader (CLYL) after training directly with the founder of laughter yoga, Dr. Kataria in India. She is currently undergoing additional intensive training in mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), somatic techniques, inner family systems (IFS), sexual trauma healing, and integrative eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). These experiences have shaped her own recovery and her dream to heal anyone else who has suffered.

Dr. Celan's custom trauma coaching program is currently under production and will integrate all of her training in psychology, psychiatry, yoga, and trauma-focused modalities. It will include several modules, including creating a foundation of stability; fostering community connection; finding purpose amid existential crises; mindfulness and embodiment through laughter, yoga, and music; and harmony with the natural world. This program is evidence-based, neurodiversity-affirming, and will be available for clients worldwide.
