It's time to take what you've learned to the world.
Receive cutting-edge INTEGRATIVE training.
What is included in the Advanced Professional Training?
You will receive the Advanced Professional Biology of Stress, Rest and Resilience module. This is where we take the information from the Professional level and give you what you need to directly implement the materials into your practice through handouts, protocols, guides, and assessment forms.
What you get:
- The step-by-step process to organize and assess information about a client
- The process and support to put together a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses biology work, as well as somatic work and parts work, to specifically work through stress and anxiety.
- Dr. Aimie’s actual assessment forms – Dr. Aimie will be giving you the assessment forms she uses to identify, to address and to assess stress and anxiety. Not only will she be giving you these forms, but helping you know the relevance of the questions on the assessment forms, how to interpret them, and how to create a comprehensive treatment plan from these assessment forms.
- Step-by-step case studies – Dr. Aimie will walk you through a real case study showing you all of their assessment forms, how to identify the best starting place, and how to pull it all together for a comprehensive treatment plan.
- New content specific to Advanced Professionals that shows you how to recognize a true physiologic stress pattern in your clients/patients versus what many practitioners mistake as stress and is actually a freeze response.
- A model of exactly where to begin in addressing a true stress pattern and persistent anxiety with your client/patients.
Who Is This Journey For?
This is for Advanced Professionals who:
- Have already started their own journey of working on their own stress and trauma patterns and harnessing the power of their stress response.
- Desire to learn how to implement Dr. Aimie’s protocols and the Biology of Trauma® Framework to help their clients by supporting the stress response, completing the stress response and restoring rhythms of rest, readiness and resilience.
- Are passionate about bringing the Biology of Trauma® Framework to the world and helping get their clients unstuck by bridging the worlds of biology and trauma work.
- Please see specific eligibility requirements below.

- This is an additional cost to be a part of the Professional's Network. Learn more about the Professionals Network HERE including information on cost and how to become a member.
- One of the main objectives of the advanced level program is to network with and learn from other advanced providers who are trained in the Biology of Trauma® (BoT) approach. We facilitate this objective through our Professionals Network (hosted in the Mighty Networks platform) where we house an exclusive, dedicated community of BoT advanced providers where collaborative discussions can take place. This is where we have the opportunity to deepen our exploration of the program’s content and where your assignments are posted as part of the requirements for completion.

What the Advanced Professionals Are Saying About Stress, Rest and Resilience Training
“And the answer to the question, what will be changing?
... Absolutely everything from the way I assess as to the need and the recognition of where they are in their stress response and the tools that I have for them to help them resource. Every everything will change as a result of this module. So thank you very much.”
– Kathy Truslow
"And that just reinforces for me how possible changes excites me when I can share with others to thank you. Thank you for how well this curriculum has been put together so that I can grasp it.“
– Deborah Burnham
“Can I just say that it's so exciting to be in such a multilayered group of people. Can I just say I love hearing from people a little bit about what they're thinking about the case, as well, and just how that applies, because that's so much different framework going on for different people. And sometimes hearing how you're conceptualizing the case as well has is so interesting."
– Janette Dunn
Topics We Will Cover:
Learn how to harness the power and energy of the stress response. Incorporate an understanding of neuroinflammation, biochemical imbalances, and neurotransmitter imbalances into your case conceptualization and treatment plans. Learn how to personalize the repair tools and strategies for your clients to transform stress into resilience at any age.
The most commonly missed biology factors and exposures that affect stress physiology:
- Completion of the stress response
- Vagus nerve dysregulation
- Neuroinflammation
- Biochemical imbalances
- Resources and energy
- Neurotransmitter imbalances
- Stress hormone imbalances
Other factors that impact stress physiology:
- Oxidative stress
- In-utero factors
- Epigenetic factors
- Nutrient factors
- Neurotoxin factors
- Attachment and neurodevelopment
Learn from Mastery and Advanced Professionals.
Sometimes we can feel alone in our work and our passion. Not everyone understands your desire to help others work through their stress and trauma responses. On the Advanced Professionals track, you will rub shoulders with some of the most cutting-edge professionals around the globe.
There are so many advanced professionals, from a wide variety of fields, who are eager to learn, share, and grow.

Your Biology of Trauma® Instructor,
Aimie Apigian, MD, MS, MPH
Dr. Aimie is a double Board-Certified medical physician who specializes in trauma, attachment, addictions and addressing trauma on a cellular level. She earned her medical degree at Loma Linda University and has a Masters in Biochemistry as well as a Masters in Public Health. She trained for over three years as a general surgeon before changing her career path to help people and train practitioners how to address The Biology of Trauma®.
In addition to her medical studies, Dr. Aimie has trained in trauma therapy modalities. She studied with Dr. Allan Schore on Attachment Regulation Theory, trained in Somatic Experiencing, NeuroAffective Touch™, Internal Family Systems (Parts Work) and the Instinctual Trauma Response Model™ and Psychodynamic Drama.
Her initiation to trauma came from Miguel, whom she adopted from the foster care system during medical school. Because of that, she is not one to sit back and talk about problems. She is a solution-focused action taker- always looking for ways to improve our approach and accelerate the healing journey back to our best health and our best selves.
