Online Workshop Series - Rewiring Pain: The Neuroscience of Trauma, Stress, and the Power of Play w/ Barbara Collier + more

Join occupational therapist Camille France, MD Bennet Davis, and LPC Barbara Collier for a dynamic 3-part series exploring persistent pain through a somatic and trauma-informed lens. Designed for clinicians, therapists, and curious individuals, each 90-minute session blends science, story, and embodied practice to illuminate pain as more than a physical symptom — but a nervous system response shaped by lived experience.

Session 1 unpacks the neuroscience of pain beyond tissue damage, exploring neuroplasticity, immune responses, and threat physiology.
Session 2 dives into how trauma, early adversity, and chronic stress influence pain pathways and healing capacity.
Session 3 brings it full circle — highlighting the healing potential of joy, novelty, and play as powerful modulators of chronic pain.

Discover how attunement, curiosity, and creativity can rewire the pain experience — and walk away with tools to support deeper integration in yourself and your clients.
