Executive Function is the set of skills which develop at about puberty that  allow us to think so as to accomplish these functions:


  1. Analyze a task
  2. Plan how to address the task
  3. Organize the steps needed to carry out the task
  4. Develop timelines for completing the task
  5. Adjust or shift the steps when/as needed to complete the task
  6. Complete the task on time and on budget.


This test looks at how we may experience that breaking down.

Each Client's brain & experience are unique. 

April observed changes in her first session - a little faster than average. Some will attribute this to how hard she was working to address her symptoms before starting her sessions, others simply that the timing was good for her to be ready for progress. We suspect both played a role.

It was a year later she traveled to Europe. A year of significant progress supported by positive actions supporting her progress. 

Europe was a huge transformation where she could pursue her dream (that had been on hold) to travel in retirement.

We have monthly seminars with people who have been through the program share their experiences and answer your questions or click below for stories from other clients. 

Trauma is how our nervous system responds to the events rather than the events themselves.


To protect us from future traumatic events, our brain and body store "protective" patterns in our minds and bodies as throughts and behaviors. We observe these in others and experience them ourselves as "stuck" patterns that replay repeatedly and "knee jerk" responses that trigger faster than we can choose an alternative.


Healing from trauma occurs when we release these patterns and choose alternate thoughts and behaviors more in allignment with who we are becomming rather than who we were.


Patterns can be released by working with trained talk therapists. They can also be released through work directly where they are stored and used in the body and the brain.  At HOPE we use tools that address the patterns where they live in the body and brain.

How Long does it take?


Trauma is stored and experienced in our neurological system. Science has studied this and found that while we may feel that we have replaced one behavior with another more quickly, it generally takes from 21 to 120 days (average 60 to 90) of consistently choosing a new behavior and not using the old behavior (pathway) for the new neural pathways to become strong enough to become the preferred pathway.


It is in the consistent repitition during that time the new pathway is built, strengthened and "hardened" to become the preferred pathway. It is also during this time that the brain begins to diminish the strength of the old pathway by pruning it's neural connections.


One factor in the length of time is stress. It is observed that as stress levels rise especially stress levels related to the original trauma, the likelyhood of triggering the old pathway increases - even years later. So, reducing stress during the integration of the new pathway is a critical component of speed and success.
