Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is trauma?
Trauma is more than the event itself. It’s about the way the brain processes and stores the experience.
When a distressing experience overwhelms your ability to cope, it can leave a lasting imprint, showing up as anxiety, avoidance, emotional triggers, or even physical tension. The Cortina Method helps your brain reprocess those memories so they no longer have power over you.
How effective is The Cortina Method?
The Cortina Method has an incredible success rate, with about 90% of clients experiencing relief from emotional distress tied to past trauma. Every person’s experience is unique, but this approach is designed for deep, lasting change.
What kinds of issues can TCM help with?
This approach is effective for a wide range of concerns, including PTSD, anxiety, phobias, grief, guilt, anger, chronic stress, physical pain in body, and more. If trauma or emotional pain is keeping you stuck, this method can help.
Can I do sessions virtually?
Yes! I work with clients both in person and online, so you can experience this process from wherever you feel most comfortable.
Do I need to do anything to prepare for my session?
No preparation is needed. Just come as you are, with an open mind and a willingness to heal.
What happens in a session?
We’ll have a conversation where I guide you through the process, using brain-based techniques, calming methods, and movement to help your brain naturally reprocess trauma. This is a gentle, safe experience. You won’t have to relive painful memories to find relief.
How long does a session last?
Most sessions last between 90 to 120 minutes, depending on what we’re working on. The focus is on real results, not rushing through a set timeframe.
How many sessions will I need?
Many people feel a significant shift after just one session. Some may benefit from additional sessions, but this process is designed to create results quickly.
How do I get started?
The first step is a discovery call where we can discuss your needs, answer your questions, and see if this is the right fit for you. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to help.
Where can I learn more about The Cortina Method?
If you’d like to dive deeper into the science and philosophy behind The Cortina Method, I encourage you to visit Michael Cortina’s official website. He’s the creator of TCM and offers helpful information, videos, and success stories that explain the method in greater detail.
