I want to help you get incredible results with your clients

You've been running your business for years, whether you coach executives and founders, see clients as a therapist, or work somatically, and you're getting good results. But the thing is, there are still areas where what you're doing could be even more effective. We don't know what we don't know, right?

The problem with most coaches is that they're following frameworks and methods, but they don't actually have the tools to really read their clients. And this isn't your fault. Everybody out there is teaching another trick, another method, another thing, and they all come with the same issue, which is that you're working in the head and not in the body.

I've spent the past 26 years studying human behavior. I've studied psychotherapy, physiology, and the work of obscure early pioneers in the field. What I've come to understand is that a person's attachment system works together with their nervous system to form their personality. This shapes every relationship they have, including the one they have with you.

If you want to get better results and be more effective with your clients, you have to help them get beneath the stories they're telling about their experiences.

Learning about attachment and relational dynamics makes you better equipped to help them in every part of their life. It's a common misunderstanding that attachment theory is only useful for helping people with romantic relationships. The attachment system is foundational to who we are. It affects what your clients do, how they see themselves, and how they see the world.

You can't think a body out of a pattern it learned early in life. You have to help it experience something different, and that happens inside a relationship.

What it actually looks like.

Let me give you an example from my own work. A man hired me to help him take his business from twenty million a year to forty. He was an A player, as driven and disciplined as anyone I'd worked with, and he did it all with ease. But underneath it, all of that effort was to prove he was enough. To his team, to his family, to his father. It was subtle. He didn't even see it.

About two months in, it came to the surface, and I gave him one of the simple practices we teach. It had nothing to do with talking, or with his business. Within a couple of weeks, his marriage changed, and the need to control everything at work fell away. He kept his drive, but what changed was why he was doing it.

This is a great example of how a simple somatic practice can create a massive shift for your client, no matter why your client comes to you.

What you'll walk away able to do

Work the pattern under the story

Attachment patterns are the base layer of a person's personality. You'll learn to work with the early imprints that became someone's way of seeing the world, the ones running the show long before they had words for any of it.

Pace your sessions so that you get better results

Your pacing has a direct impact on the outcome you get with your clients. You'll learn to read exactly where someone is in their body and their life, and know what to do to help them.

Observe behavioral changes in real time

We'll teach you exactly what moves and directs human behavior. You'll learn how to observe it in the person in front of you and know what to do with it to help them change.

Repair the pattern

A change in thinking only works for so long. You'll learn to help the body organize in a new way in response to their life so that they can finally experience the changes they've been longing for.

You earn a professional certificate documenting 40 hours of training: complete the six modules, attend the ten live classes, submit your weekly homework, and pass the final exam.

The practitioner you become

Through this training, you'll understand exactly what's moving a person's deeper behavior. Most practitioners never learn how to go this deep, and your clients are definitely going to feel the difference. This will set you apart in your field, and it's what will turn you into a world-class practitioner.

  • Your clients feel understood, so they stay. Your client isn't thinking about their nervous system. They're thinking about the stress they're in and the difficulty they're living with. When you can describe their inner experience back to them, they think: this is the person for me.
  • You become known for getting results. When you can recognize the developmental pattern under somebody's behavior, you're going to know exactly what to do to help them change that behavior.
  • Your business grows. The best marketing you'll ever have is a client who got great results. We'll teach you exactly how to do that using our methods.

It's extraordinary work. If this is the kind of business you want to build, book a call and I'll show you more.

Will Rezin

Will Rezin

SEP, CPC · Founder & Lead Facilitator

Founder of Trauma and Somatics. In private practice since 2014, mentoring coaches since 2016, and founder of the training company in 2020, with more than 500 practitioners certified across 28 countries. His private clients are largely founders and executives, among them people at NASA, Boeing and Google, a 16-time Emmy-winning producer, and business owners with net worths in the hundreds of millions. Therapists and supervisors come to him for consultation on their own cases.

Will and Kate are mother and son. There were a lot of ruptures between us growing up. That we can teach this together is a testament to our own repair, our own growth, our own attachment work, given some of what we lived through as a family. It makes this a rare thing to be part of. Kate is in her seventies now and is beginning to pull back from this intensity of work, so we're genuinely uncertain when we'll teach it in this configuration again. If you can be in this one, be in this one.

What our students are saying

"The pace and sensitivity of the teacher, Will, and the insights into how we as humans are imprinted and hence relate to life. The course material is golden, and taught in a way that is practical and integrative, not just theory."

Richard LubnerIntegrated Development Coach

"What truly makes it special is the way Will and Kate hold space. Even in an online setting, I felt deeply safe, seen, and supported. They manage to create a container that feels both grounded and transformative."

Sanja StankovicRelational TA Psychotherapist

"It's a worthy investment, and will help any practitioner wanting to deepen their knowledge and skills of both the early attachment cycle and somatic embodiment."

Kate HartmanC-IAYT, SEP

"A+S could be the missing piece if you often find yourself intellectualizing in sessions, or want to increase your capacity to contain your clients' emotional journey rather than giving them instant tools to fix their behavior."

Faezeh DirminaPsychotherapist

"This course brings the experience and language for working with our physiology: attachment imprints, character strategies, and how we grow more attuned to them in ourselves and for our clients."

Your questions answered

Who is this for?
Coaches, therapists and somatic practitioners with established businesses and real clients. A lot of the people in our programs coach executives, founders and high performers. Some are therapists, some work through bodywork or breathwork. What they have in common is that they already get results, and they can tell there's a layer underneath the conversation they aren't reaching yet.
Do I already need to be working with the body?
No. Plenty of coaches arrive having never thought about their work that way, and they tend to move quickly, because they already know how to run a session. What matters more is that you have clients to practice on and you're willing to learn experientially rather than conceptually. If you'd rather have the nervous-system grounding first, Trauma & Somatics covers it, and we'll tell you honestly on the call if that's the better place to start.
How is this different from Trauma & Somatics?
Trauma & Somatics teaches you to track and work with the nervous system. Attachment & Somatics is where you go deeper, into how to apply this to more complexity: the developmental process, the relational patterns, the early imprints that formed the person. Most people come to this from T+S, and it's the natural groundwork. It isn't a prerequisite. If you're already working with clients, I'll tell you on the call which one to start with.
Will this help me grow my business?
So much of our growth comes from people who had a meaningful experience and told someone else. Better results with your hardest cases become referrals and longer engagements. There's also a live business series included, Build Your Somatic Practice, because getting results and knowing how to talk about them are two different skills.
What happens on the call?
A working session, not a sales pitch. I'll take you through the work applied to your business and client work, name where your training has gaps, and tell you honestly whether this cohort is the right fit. If it isn't, I'll point you to what is.
How much time does it require?
Ten live three-hour classes on Mondays across twelve weeks, plus your weekly homework and integration. Plan for the live classes and a few hours a week around them.
What if I can't attend every class live?
The work is live, and that's where the skill grows. We record the classes so you can catch a week you miss, but this is a live training, not a self-paced course. If you can't make most of the live classes, this isn't the right cohort for you.
Do I get CE credits?
No. This is a professional certification in its own right, earned on completion, not a CE-accredited course.
Will this qualify me to treat trauma?
No, and it isn't meant to. Unless you're a licensed psychotherapist trained to do that, resolving trauma is outside your scope, and staying inside your scope is part of what we teach. But it is always within your scope to help a person build the capacity to be with more of what's happening inside them.

"I'm so glad that you're here."
