Triggered & Trapped—It’s not you, It’s your Brain: An Online Course

Deb Lang Licensed Psychologist

Stop blaming yourself.

Regain your momentum.

Break free from triggers

That have you trapped and

return to peace.

Are there times when you get triggered or something

pushes your buttons and you

  • can’t think or figure out what to do?
  • get stuck in overwhelm or anxiety?
  • have trouble controlling your temper?

And while you’re in that

triggered place,

do you say or do things you later regret,

or waste time

  • stewing, eating,
  • plotting revenge,
  • or staring into space,

when wasting time is the last thing you need?

Do you blame yourself and maybe wonder

  • what’s wrong with me that I can’t let it go or “get over it?”
  • why I can’t think or figure out what to do?
  • will I be stuck forever?
  • why I can’t be “normal?”

I know I sure have, and so have so many of my clients.

It’s no wonder

In a world filled with shocking news, unending expectations, and ever-expanding demands, it’s no wonder we get overwhelmed and trapped in our emotions and reactions.

It can feel like being in quicksand—pulling you deeper into distress, while you desperately seek a way out. And to make things worse, we often act in ways we regret in the process.

It helps to have a Guide

Most of us don’t realize that our capabilities change when we get triggered—I know I didn’t. I simply blamed myself or the situation.

That changed with my training in emotional regulation from a neuroscience perspective.

Now after years of helping clients learn these skills, I want to share them with you.

I’ll guide you in learning how to move from feeling stuck and reactive to regaining your momentum by understanding how being triggered changes your brain and your capabilities.

It helps to have a roadmap

First, you’ll learn how changes in your brain change your capabilities, perceptions, and worldview.

Then, you’ll learn how to identify when that change has happened, or when your brain has fragmented.

Finally, you’ll develop a plan to bring your whole brain back onboard.

The Benefits

By the end of the course you will have learned how to

  • recognize when your capabilities have changed so you can intervene quickly and not get trapped
  • reconnect with capabilities unavailable with a fragmented brain—allowing you to problem-solve while caring for yourself.
  • regain your momentum—move out of what feels like quicksand to take action.
  • avoid the damage we often do while triggered.
  • reconnect with the strength and wisdom that have always been with you—equipping you to navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience.
  • return to peace.

What People are Saying

being trapped takes a toll

  • Being trapped in reactivity can take such a toll on our lives and on our confidence.
  • Without an understanding of what is happening in our brain, we can end up spinning and doing damage in the process.
  • And we often blame ourselves and feel all alone.

The cost to your life

What has been the cost to your life?

Has it eroded your confidence? Damaged your relationships? Paralyzed you in fear? Or, maybe kept you turning to food or other substances for relief?

Would it be worth the time and effort to learn a way to turn that around—to stop letting triggers get in the way of being the person you want and were meant to be?

Don’t wait until you are stuck in fear, anxiety,

overwhelm, or anger.

Imagine knowing how to regain your momentum, reconnect with your strength and wisdom, and return to a state of peace.

It’s a skill most of us have to learn.

This course will teach you how.

An advantage

The skills you will learn in this course typically require six months of individual therapy at a cost close to $4000.

Individual therapy, of course, is more tailored to specific needs and is a possible option if you live in Montana.

And one thing I hear over and over from clients is the desire to have what they are learning in writing so they can refer to it as needed.

You will have lifetime access to this information, something my clients only wish for. And you will be learn these skills at a significantly reduced cost.

Hopes for a more peaceful world

I created this course with a grandiose desire. I want more people to have these skills so there is less reactivity and more peace.

Each of our brains take cues from the environment and from the emotional state of those around us. If we are around reactivity, our system will likely move into a defensive or reactive state.

If more of us learned to move out of reactivity, could we decrease the level of reactivity level in our neighborhoods, cities and even in our country?

I’m probably dreaming, and as individuals constantly encounter stressful stimuli, what power there is in knowing how to move oneself from reactivity to peace, even if it is for moments of time!

Gain the power that comes from understanding how your brain changes during stress!
