Treatments
Traumatic experiences can imprint on an individual’s unconscious, creating a template, or “hologram” that influences one’s perceptions, interpretations, and responses to the world. Read about an overview of trauma reprocessing treatments: Holographic Reprocessing and Warrior Renew group therapy and the 5 core change techniques including imagery reprocessing where clients imagine delivering a healing message to their younger/traumatized self.
Research
27 outcome studies conducted in the United States and Middle East found significant decreases in symptoms of PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, and negative thoughts as well as improved secure Attachment, Optimism, Cognitive flexibility, and Quality of life, with notably low dropout rates. Randomized trials of Holographic Reprocessing compared to Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Processing (CPT), and Dialectal Behavioral (DBT) therapies found equal effectiveness, with aspects of Holographic Reprocessing superior in each trial.
The Institute
In 1993, Dr Lori Katz, a clinical psychologist, was assigned to work at a new women’s health clinic. She noticed client after client had experienced interpersonal traumas with pervasive effects. She felt the current treatments were both too narrow and didn’t reach deep enough to address core violations and identity wounds. She set out to develop innovative treatments that could heal with insight and compassion. (Read more about the Founder, the Institute, and Advisory Board)…
Media Coverage
The original Renew program at the Department of Veterans Affairs, Long Beach, California was featured in multiple media venues including the New York Times, Dateline Australia, and a Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) news documentary which won an Emmy Award for best news segment of the year (see videos below). Dr Katz has also been interviewed multiple times on television (e.g., Fox 11 news), radio (e.g., KPCC), and newspaper (e.g., New York Times, Colorado Springs Gazette, Orange County Register).
In 2012, the New York Times created this film about the Renew program in Long Beach, CA. It includes graduates sharing writings from their journals that they created during Renew.
In 2013, Dateline Australia comes to Long Beach, CA to film graduates of the Renew program in this piece called “Homeless Heroes.” Participants discuss their experience of being homeless and going through Renew.
SoCal Connected, a Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) documentary, films a graduate of Renew in Long Beach, CA. “A Soldier’s Story” won the 2010 Emmy Award for best News Segment of the year. This is the 2012 revised film highlighting the experiences of this veteran.
