Why This Trauma Training?

Trauma doesn’t just live in the mind—it’s stored in the body, shaped by relationships, and often stuck in unspoken patterns. Traditional therapy approaches can fall short when clients need more than insight.

This training gives you the tools, support, and hands-on experience to integrate experiential therapy techniques into your clinical or coaching work—so you can help clients process trauma in a more powerful, embodied way.

Whether you're new to experiential work or looking to deepen your trauma-informed approach, this cohort-based training is designed to be both clinically rigorous and deeply human.

How the Training Works

  • Closed Cohort Model – Build trust and accountability with a consistent group

  • Live, Experiential Learning – Engage in group process, real-time facilitation, and embodied practice

  • Systemic Focus – Explore how trauma impacts the entire system—not just the individual

  • Creative Integration – Learn how play, movement, and expressive techniques support lasting change

  • Supportive Feedback – Receive supervision-style guidance in a learning environment

This is more than a workshop—it's an immersive experience that will change the way you show up in the therapy room.

Sheila Maitland, LCMHCS, CSAT

With over 30 years of clinical experience and a deep understanding of team systems, I bring a rare blend of therapeutic insight, leadership strategy, and experiential facilitation.

I’m passionate about helping people move from stuck to connected—from high-functioning to truly thriving. My approach integrates structure with soul, theory with embodiment, and professionalism with heart.

Because real transformation is relational.

Testimonials- gifts about shiela

  • “Every conversation with Sheila is a masterclass in growth.”

    As a director overseeing multiple programs, I needed a coach who could hold

    complexity while cutting through the noise. Sheila did exactly that. She challenged me

    to lead with integrity, regulate with intention, and empower my team with authenticity.

    She has an uncanny ability to see what’s really going on beneath the surface—and to

    help you rise to meet it.

  • “Sheila Maitland is the coach you want when you’re serious about transformation.”

    Our entire practice underwent a shift after working with Sheila. She blends

    neuroscience, relational wisdom, and practical leadership tools in a way that is both

    visionary and deeply usable. She doesn’t just build better teams—she builds resilient

    ecosystems of people who want to do better work together.

  • “In a field where burnout is common, Sheila rekindles the fire.”

    Our mental health facility was struggling with morale and turnover. Sheila came in with

    warmth, curiosity, and laser focus. Through targeted coaching and team alignment

    sessions, she helped us name unspoken tensions, reframe challenges, and return to

    our mission with renewed energy. We’ve never been more connected—or more

    effective.
