Independent (Michael Sapp)

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and CEO of the Trauma Resource Institute (TRI), which is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that is dedicated to empowering individuals, communities, and organizations in their journey towards healing and recovery from trauma. With a commitment to trauma- and resiliency-informed care, TRI offers innovative training, resources, and support to promote resilience, self-regulation, and community well-being through our two models: the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM)® and the Community Resiliency Model (CRM)®. While TRM is oriented toward mental health professionals, CRM takes on a public health focus and has been taught to professionals and natural leaders of communities. TRI's models are evidence-based and emphasize the importance of self-regulation, sensory awareness, and the integration of mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. They equip individuals to develop practical skills for managing stress, improving emotional well-being, and fostering healthy relationships.
