About this webinar

Live Group Session · Rapid Rewire Method Most healing approaches start with the mind. This one starts with the body.

Most healing approaches start with the mind. This one starts with the body.

If you've done therapy, journaling, or mindfulness — and something still feels unresolved — you're not broken. You haven't failed. It simply means the pattern is stored somewhere talk alone can't reach: in your nervous system, in your body, in the places where stress and emotion live as physical tension, chronic anxiety, or a quiet sense of being stuck.

That's exactly what this workshop is designed to address.

Meet your facilitator: Helen Denise Stovall, DFM, LSWAIC

Denise is a Licensed Holistic Psychotherapist and National Board Certified Functional Mental Health Practitioner with a Doctorate in Functional Medicine and a Masters in Clinical Social Work. She is also the founder of Holistic Support Wellness.

She specializes in integrative care for trauma, anxiety, depression, and emotional wellbeing — and her approach is grounded in a simple but powerful belief: recovery from trauma requires more than talk therapy alone.

Denise blends traditional psychotherapy with body-based, non-invasive modalities including Brainspotting, Bilateral Sound, Photobiomodulation (Light Therapy), and the Safe and Sound Protocol. She is a Certified Safe & Sound Protocol Provider and Certified Trauma-Informed Professional — and she holds space that is empathetic, nonjudgmental, and deeply supportive for people healing from complex trauma, stress, and emotional dysregulation.

In this workshop, she brings one of her most powerful group-ready tools: the Rapid Rewire Method.

The problem

Chronic stress, unprocessed emotion, and trauma doesn’t just live in the mind — they get trapped in the body. They show up as tension that won't release, emotional reactivity that feels out of proportion, anxiety that lingers even when life looks fine on the outside, and patterns that keep returning no matter how much you understand them intellectually.

This is your nervous system stuck in fight-flight-freeze — running a survival response long after the original threat has passed.

The solution: Reduction/Expansion Somatic Processing

In this live session, Denise guides the group through the Reduction/Expansion technique — a core method within the Rapid Rewire Method that works directly with the body's nervous system.

The process alternates between two movements:

  • Reduction — narrowing attention to a specific bodily sensation, creating precise focus
  • Expansion — broadening awareness outward, releasing stored tension and allowing the nervous system to discharge

This cycle helps move the nervous system from sympathetic (fight-flight-freeze) into parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) — releasing the emotional charge that's been held in the body, often for years.

Also included: a free Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) listening experience — a sound-based nervous system regulation tool developed by neuroscientist Dr. Stephen Porges, and normally only accessible through certified practitioners. Denise is one of them.

Who this is for

  • You're carrying a stuck emotion, recurring pattern, or situation that keeps weighing on you
  • You've tried therapy or inner work and still feel something unresolved in your body
  • You experience chronic tension, anxiety, or emotional reactivity you can't think your way out of
  • You're curious about somatic, body-based healing and want to experience it — not just learn about it
  • You're a referring professional who wants to understand these tools from the inside

What to expect

This is not a lecture, nor therapy. You will be doing real work.

Come with something genuine to move through — a stuck feeling, a recurring pattern, a situation at a 6–7 or below on emotional intensity (1 = barely bothers you · 10 = debilitating). Denise will facilitate the process live, in a held group space.

Please do not bring your most overwhelming issue. This is a group setting — your deepest material deserves private support. What you bring should feel workable, not destabilizing.


Please come prepared

✏️ Pencil and paper — not a pen (the haptic quality of pencil matters for somatic processing) 🎧 Headphones — NOT noise-canceling 📷 Camera on — this helps you stay present and supports facilitation for everyone 💛 The Emotion Wheel — it will help you identify and name what you're feeling
