About

Rissa Mohabir R.S.Hom, Cert.Ed. draws on post gradualte studies of Healing Trauma with the Somatic Experiencing Trauma Institiute,USA( Peter Levine) 
She has  22 years of practice as a classical homeopath as well as teaching extensively in the UK, Czech Repulic, Serbia, Croatia and Japan.

It was during  the 2000-2007 training medical doctors and homeopaths in Serbia and Croatia where I witnessed the impact of war on civilians that led me into a deeper enquiry as to why trauma occurs, not from the event but how we respond mentally, emotionally and physically.

Trauma Awareness endeavours to ask and answer questions about the effects of trauma and our unique individual way of responding to threat, shock and accidents with short presentations, workshops or individual sessions.

Trauma Awareness offers a therapeutic approach which focuses on the sensations and body memories and  resources occurring  here in the present ..  Unresolved trauma will be stored in the body as bound energy and manifest as trauma symptoms.  This energy should be released gently, to avoid activation.  Trauma Awareness will assist this process and holds the attitude that the body mind is designed to heal intense and extreme experiences.

For the past 16 years Rissa has been activley participating in theatre and movement practices which informs her unique style.

In August 2009 she faciltated a workshop at the Asha Center, Gloucs, in collaboration with an EU commission.  A group of young men and women from Eastern Europe were invited to participate in  a Council Speech Meeting in relation to gender issues both from a socio-politcal and psychological perspective.  The topic “Violence against women – Rape and the Price of Silence”.

She has been been facilitating workshops for women for the past 4 years in the UK and Germany.
