NFA Nervous System Foundations Online
Sept 29/30 or Oct 6/7 2026 · Online
The starting point for everyone with the nervous system essentials every professional should know. This online training introduces the core nervous system and trauma-informed principles that underpin the NeuroFascia Approach. Designed for coaches, therapists, bodyworkers, and healthcare professionals, this first course in the NeuroFascia Approach training for Professionals gives you the language to understand the mechanisms of the nervous system, its role in trauma and bracing patterns and very practical tools to begin working with it immediately with your clients.
What you will learn:
nervous system regulation
trauma physiology
practitioner differentiation
the threat-response cycle
working with activation safely and sustainably
non-forcing therapeutic principles
What past students are saying:
“Before taking the Nervous System Foundations training, I was seeing more and more clients seeking ‘trauma release,’ and I wanted to be able to support them in a way that felt both safe and effective. I could tell people were more disconnected from their bodies than ever, but I didn’t fully know how to help guide them back toward what they were feeling.
The training was engaging, therapeutic and educational all at once. One of the biggest breakthroughs for me was learning how finding the center of the body can create such profound relaxation. Sharing that simple exercise with clients has been incredibly empowering for them and has helped them learn how to soothe themselves.
My focus has shifted from trying to facilitate big releases toward helping clients feel safe, supported and regulated first. That change alone has transformed how I hold space for people.
The NeuroFascia Approach adds such an important layer of understanding to any therapeutic or bodywork practice. It not only helps you support your clients’ nervous systems more effectively, but also teaches you how to hold boundaries, regulate yourself as a practitioner, and create a deeper sense of calm and safety in your work.”

“Before taking the Nervous System Foundations training, I wanted a deeper understanding of how the nervous system affects the physiology of the body so I could integrate this knowledge more effectively into my daily practice and develop a broader, more holistic perspective.
Taking the training with Deirdre was an incredibly valuable experience. She brings deep knowledge while teaching in a warm, committed, personal and enthusiastic way that makes the material both accessible and engaging. The combination of theory, practical exercises and open discussion was very well organized and easy to apply immediately.
Since completing the training, I now use these tools in my work every day. It has given me practical somatic applications I can use both during sessions and as exercises clients can continue with at home, and my clients have truly appreciated the difference.
For anyone wanting to deepen their understanding of the nervous system and holistic health, I highly recommend this training. It creates meaningful change both for you as a practitioner and for the clients you support.”
