Insights Webinar Series

September 14, 2026  – Where Fern & Audrey Fits: A Faith-Informed, Trauma-Response Educational Model

In this September edition of Fern & Audrey Insights, we clarify where Fern & Audrey’s Advanced Trauma Education Center fits within the broader landscape of trauma and dissociation support.


Fern & Audrey is not presented as another therapy modality, a clinical technique, or a replacement for licensed mental health treatment. It is a faith-informed, trauma-response educational framework designed to help survivors, therapists, helpers, pastors, and support persons better understand the internal logic of severe trauma and dissociation.


Rather than beginning with diagnosis, symptoms, behavior, or spiritual interpretation, Fern & Audrey begins with the whole human person. The model views dissociation as protection, symptoms as communication, emotions as meaningful, and the helping relationship as a place where developmental capacities interrupted by trauma can begin to form.


During this webinar, participants will explore how Fern & Audrey complements mainstream trauma and DID treatment by adding a human-developmental and educational lens. The focus is not simply on helping a survivor function better or dissociate less. The deeper goal is to help the survivor become less afraid of their internal world, develop language for emotions and protective responses, distinguish present reality from trauma-conditioned experience, and gradually live rehumanized from their ME.


The presentation also introduces several distinctive elements of the Fern & Audrey framework, including:

  • hearing the language of the heart;
  • understanding what the survivor’s system is protecting;
  • recognizing Function, Protection, and Emotion;
  • exploring the child’s perspective;
  • differentiating types of thought;
  • reducing shame;
  • restoring agency and emotional presence;
  • and supporting the journey from dehumanization toward rehumanization.


A detailed vignette illustrates how a helper can listen beneath anger and present-day reactions without forcing memory work or imposing unsupported interpretations. Instead, the survivor is given language, dignity, emotional regulation, and internal orientation so that protective responses can be understood rather than shamed.


The webinar also distinguishes Fern & Audrey from deliverance-based models. Fern & Audrey organizes healing around restoring the person—human, trauma, rehumanization—rather than around warfare, confrontation with darkness, or deliverance categories

About the Fern & Audrey Insights Webinar Series

Who This Series Is For
This webinar series is designed for mental health professionals, survivors, ministry leaders, advocates, support persons, and lay helpers seeking deeper understanding of complex trauma, trauma-based mind control, dissociation, and trauma-response perspectives.


Whether you are walking alongside survivors or seeking language and clarity for your own experience, Fern & Audrey Insights offers a dedicated educational space to learn, reflect, and grow in understanding.

What You Can Expect
Each monthly webinar includes trauma-response education along with practical tools and language for understanding survivor experiences.

Participants will also have opportunities for thoughtful discussion around common questions, real-life support challenges, and developing educational concepts from Fern & Audrey’s broader curriculum.

This series is designed to provide connection with others who are committed to learning how to respond with wisdom, care, and compassion.

Educational Purpose
The Fern & Audrey Insights Webinar Series is educational in nature. It is not intended to provide therapy, clinical supervision, consultation, diagnosis, treatment, or crisis intervention.

Our goal is to offer trauma-response education that brings greater clarity to complex trauma and dissociation while remaining accessible to both professional and non-professional learners.

Why Join?
You do not have to understand everything all at once. This series was created to help participants grow one step at a time through clear teaching, practical tools, and meaningful connection.

upcoming Monthly sessions

Join us for monthly education, connection, and trauma-response learning designed to deepen understanding and strengthen compassionate support.

Wholehearted After Fragmentation explores what it means to live fully after purposeful trauma has disrupted normal childhood development, attachment, emotional regulation, agency, and a stable sense of self. Rather than defining healing as having no symptoms, no grief, or no ongoing struggles, this webinar offers a more grounded understanding of wholehearted living: developing the capacity to remain present, connected, emotionally honest, and choiceful within a real human life. 


Participants will consider how survivors can recover a sense of ME, understand the interplay of Function, Protection, and Emotion, learn to experience feelings without automatically disappearing, navigate internal conflict with curiosity, build relationships without reenactment or self-erasure, and make room for grief as a meaningful part of being human. Wholehearted living does not erase what happened; it expands a person’s ability to live from the present while honoring both what was lost and what is still possible.


Discussion Highlights:

  • Recovering ME — rebuilding a lived sense of self, agency, voice, choice, needs, and personal experience after development was hijacked by trauma.
  • Learning to Feel Without Disappearing — developing greater capacity to experience emotion, distress, and grief without automatically dissociating or becoming overwhelmed.
  • Understanding the Dynamic of Being Human — recognizing how Function, Protection, and Emotion can begin working together rather than remaining separated by survival.
  • Turning Internal Conflict the Into Communication — understanding conflicting thoughts, fears, needs, and protective responses as meaningful information rather than evidence of failure.
  • Living Wholeheartedly in an Imperfect Life — building safer relationships, making present-day choices, grieving real losses, repairing ruptures, and remaining connected to life without requiring “total healing” or the absence of difficulty.


Date: Monday, October 12 2026   Time: 5:30 p.m. - 6:45 p.m. EDT

Price: $129 


Registration includes 14 days of access to the event replay, available once the recording is posted following the live event.


Good questions can open doors that advice cannot. In this Insights webinar, we will explore the art of asking clean, curiosity-driven questions—the kind that help survivors notice, name, and safely explore their own internal experience without being led toward a predetermined answer.


We will also revisit the cipher framework and examine how symbols, phrases, images, or seemingly indirect communication may carry important meaning. Participants will learn how ciphers can point toward underlying conflicts, emotions, protective responses, or experiences that are not yet available in direct language—and how to follow those threads with patience, gentleness, and discernment.


Discussion Highlights:

  • Beginning conversations with survivors who are new to trauma work
  • Asking questions that support discovery without leading or interpreting too quickly
  • Recognizing possible ciphers and symbolic communication
  • Exploring meaning while allowing the survivor to remain the authority on their own experience
  • Applying the cipher framework in professional, caregiving, and supportive relationships
  • Knowing when to remain curious, when to slow down, and when not to press for answers

I am listening and participating in these webinars mainly to help myself understand my own dissociation and the difference between shifting and switching. It is very comforting to have words to explain these experiences, and to hear that they are actually experienced by others in the same way.

I loved every minute. Their experiences, insight and wisdom are such a treasure to me. It changed my life and the way I connect with others. Every time I attend a teaching I leave the experience fuller and richer.
