Love Trish, you are one of my favourite people in the world. A true guardian angel in the form of a compassionate, connected, caring, wise, beautiful woman.
Your immersive course was the best thing I could have given to myself in this dark and challenging time.

You masterfully guided us to face the pain and harm with clarity, vulnerability and openness while providing a safe cocoon to regain our connection with the self and our strength. You lovingly provide the fertile environment to learn and bloom surrounded and seen by the amazing women in the course which became sisters.

The wholesomeness of your approach is transformative: deep content on the DSTT model (which is by far the best knowledge I have found), paired with visual art, poems, music, voices of other women, delivered through your grounding and inspiring voice.

I can’t recommend your work highly enough. To any betrayed, deceived, wounded woman reading this, Trish’s intensive course will be a profound step-change in your healing and self-reconnection journey.

Trish was recommended to me by my spouse’s CSAT, who felt I would benefit from her Intensive Program/Sister Cocoon Intensive. It took me some time to decide whether I was ready, but attending the program turned out to be the best decision I’ve made for myself as a betrayed partner in deep emotional pain, grief, and despair.

D-Day was 12/23/24, and the rollercoaster of staggered and trickle truths about my spouse’s infidelity left my mind spinning. When I learned early this summer that my spouse still hadn’t fully disclosed, it sent me into rage, confusion, and profound hurt. I realized I needed a program that could help me understand the trauma I was experiencing—years of emotional damage from his secret life—and guide me toward healing.

I have spent 49 years of my life being betrayed and deceived, and now struggle with depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Although my spouse and I were in marriage therapy and both had individual therapists, none of our therapy addressed betrayal trauma, recovery, or the grief I was living through. The focus was primarily on his sex addiction and communication issues, while my individual therapist, though supportive, was not trained in betrayal trauma.

Trish’s intensive program finally provided what I desperately needed. It allowed me to do the deep work required to process trauma and gave me the education, structure, and support to understand the phases betrayed partners go through. Most importantly, it showed me a path forward—how to begin healing after everything I’ve endured.

From the moment I met Trish on the first day of the Intensive, I felt an immediate and powerful sense of connection. We embraced, and her hugs are truly the best—warm, grounding, and safe. The way she welcomed me and my Cocoon Sisters was incredibly special, and I felt at ease right away. I knew I was ready for the deep work ahead during the 7-day in-person intensive and the 1-day virtual session. Trish created a safe, nurturing space that allowed me to open up and share my emotional pain without fear or hesitation.

Trish took careful notes of each of our stories, honoring our experiences with such attentiveness. We began each day with morning check-ins, and she guided us through special projects designed to help us express and understand our journeys. We created artwork, wrote about our feelings after completing portions of the workbook, and used the materials in the beautifully organized binders she provided—every detail thoughtfully prepared.

Trish supplied everything we needed throughout the live intensive sessions. Her expertise in betrayal trauma was exceptional; she was professional, deeply knowledgeable, and confident in the material she presented. But what touched me most was her empathy and compassion for how broken each of us felt. She encouraged us to comfort and support one another, helping us form a bond of sisterhood during those seven in-person days that was truly beautiful and profound.

Through her guidance, Trish helped us reclaim our power and begin overcoming the immense pain we carried because of betrayal. She taught us how to pause, breathe, reflect, and reclaim our power. Trish shared so many meaningful tools to help us regulate our nervous systems during moments of emotional overwhelm and pain.

Trish provided special activities like drumming and sound baths, and those experiences were truly life-changing for me. Through them, I was able to release so much of the pain I had been carrying. I still cherish those moments of pure delight—feeling happy, free, and connected in a way I hadn’t felt in a very long time.

The beautiful spread of food and drinks that Trish prepared each day was so thoughtful, ensuring we stayed nourished and hydrated throughout the in-person sessions. Her home offered a peaceful, tranquil environment that felt safe and supportive for all of us.

I will be forever grateful to Trish for the experience she created and for the role she played in my healing. I highly recommend Trish and her Intensive Program to any woman navigating the painful and overwhelming journey of betrayal trauma.

The sacred cocoon created by Trish was, and remains, integral to my healing from betrayal trauma and my transformation from victim of betrayal to survivor of betrayal to a woman who can thrive. Trish incorporated many modalities that helped in getting deeply connected with myself and to have more language to understand my past, present, and future. I loved all that we did and talked about– the learnings, the art, the breathwork, the movement; everything was intentional and served to move the trauma from my brain out of my body. What most stood out, though, is the way I was so deeply cared for and seen by Trish. For the first time in many years, I felt completely safe and knew I could trust my cocoon sisters to hold my story and honor and respect me as well.

This trauma intensive is an investment of time, emotions, and finances. And it is well worth it! As Trish says, there is wonderful wisdom and beauty in your heart. It deserves to be honored, particularly after intimate partner betrayal. I hope you absolutely consider working with Trish—it is well worth it!

Stepping into Trish’s 8-day Here I Am Becoming felt like entering a tenderness I didn’t know my body had been starving for. I was held—not just in spirit, but in truth. Seen, heard, reflected and honored back into the woman I’d left behind and betrayal had splintered. Would she ever re-emerge? I often wondered. My husband’s choices had torn a violent seam in my reality, and had become a steady hum, I barely heard in its new normalcy.

Yet, in Trish’s container—in her Sacred Sister Cocoon—along with the other beautiful women who attended, and under her intuitive arms, her steady heart—I sank inward like a soul-diver, retrieving pieces of myself I had abandoned just to keep breathing. I emerged raw but rooted, open but anchored, and carrying tools that let my life move forward with intention instead of survival.

I am the main event now pulses in me like a sacred drum.

I wish every woman cracked open by sexual betrayal or buried in the shadows of secret basements could find Trish, and be met with the truth, safety, and restoration her work so generously offers.

When I found Trish’s Sister Cocoon Intensive, I was seven months past discovery and still drowning. Since February 26th, I had been living in the grip of severe PTSD symptoms—raging, breaking things, wavering between wanting to fight and wanting to disappear entirely. I was tender and raw, taking one step forward and two steps back. The enormity of this betrayal trauma had altered me so completely that I barely recognized myself.

I had been working with therapists and enrolled in other programs, but they weren’t a fit. They didn’t understand this specific type of trauma. I could feel the tornado inside, the overwhelming grief that brought me to my knees, the way trauma had shattered my inner knowing, my world, and left me grasping for solid ground. I needed specialists. I needed immersive care. I needed to be deeply held.

I feel so fortunate to have found Trish and to have engaged in this deep work with her.

Over eight profound days, she created a container of deep emotional safety where I could finally exhale. Her presence and attunement were extraordinary. She tracked every wave of anger and grief with such care, honoring my process and my path through this vortex with thoughtful presence. From the beautiful breakfast and lunch spreads to the smallest details, you could feel the love and intentionality she brings to this sacred work. She and the other women in that room held me exactly as I was—all the million pieces I was in—free of judgment, full of deep validation and respect for my healing journey.

The transformation was cellular. Something ancient and wise within me—something I thought I’d lost—reawakened. I reclaimed my intuitive power, my inner knowing, in a way I had not been able to access before. I learned to breathe through difficult triggers and activations. I discovered I could call out integrity abuse with fierce precision, strength, and groundedness instead of becoming a whirlwind, instead of losing myself in the chaos of lies and trauma. I can disengage before my “altered self” consumes me. I can tend to myself. I can come up for air.

Where I once raged and raged, I now stand in my own knowing. Where I once broke and lost my voice screaming, I now cry and hold myself in my pain. I know I will survive the burning.

I metabolized a great deal at this intensive and made soul sisters along the way. This is deep, profound work that Trish holds with art and profoundly healing care. The healing journey continues, certainly—but because of this intensive, I am much, much stronger for it. It was a phenomenal, deeply transformative experience. If you are navigating the life-shattering terrain of betrayal trauma and need a place to land, to be held, to return to yourself—Sister Cocoon is that place. And Trish is the healer who will hold you through it all.

Affirming. Transformative. Trish’s retreat was exactly what my body and my brain needed to find the truth that I had been harboring throughout this entire traumatic process. Her depth of experience is so vast and her ability to hold space for each of us throughout the week was nothing less than courageous. Trish is an exceptional therapist and I would recommend this workshop to anyone in a similar situation.

Trish is a remarkably warm and knowledgeable woman who will help you move forward. I felt seen not just as a “partner,” but as a human being who is worth listening to and taking seriously.

Trish was willing to name the uncomfortable truths that lingered in my relationship that other well-intentioned/well-educated therapists seemed to avoid, but which kept me in confusion. Those truths were hard to hold in my awareness at all, let alone to try to process through them in a way that wasn’t incapacitating. However, Trish’s approach gave me a way to both access and start moving through the trauma.

I have finally been able to get back to a sense of peace within my body. It is also so much easier to set boundaries that help me preserve this peace as I continue to heal. My partner, friends, and family have commented on noticing these shifts as well.

Before going to this program I felt like I had been emotionally ripped apart and trampled on for years, and I left with the ability to feel whole again. I am now able to connect with parts of myself that had been slowly worn away long before discovery.

This program goes beyond coping skills and helps you tap back into yourself in a way that feels like coming back alive. It’s like some sort of psychological CPR!

Finally, there is something so healing about spending 8 days immersed in this type of treatment with other women who have been through something similar. If the Minwalla Model resonates with you, then this program can help you feel healthier, no matter what is happening with your partner.

Do this program. It is worth it. We have easily spent over 150K over the past 3.5 years on therapy and various intensive programs for couples and for my husband. You need and deserve the clarity that this program can bring. I know it can be hard to justify the expense, but getting healthy for yourself is the best thing that can happen for your family. I only wish I would have done it sooner because it would have ended up saving me a lot of money on less effective treatment! My mom is now always telling me how thankful she is that I did this program because she can tell I am getting back to myself, and that I’m much more present for my kids.

Thank you Trish!!!

I came to Trish a fraction of myself, and a very small one, at that. By the time I met Trish, I had suffered not only the deceptive betrayal of a nearly 20-year marriage, but also a very painful 4 years of treatment trauma, whereby I was blamed and held responsible for my own mistreatment. Finding Trish was a literal lifeline for me. Her incredible strength and powerful passion, coupled with her deep intuition and undeniable know-how quite literally brought me back to life. I have never felt so fully seen, held, cherished and resuscitated. We are not meant to do this work alone. Please, allow yourself the remarkable fortune of being held tight in Trish’s care. She is equal parts education, fortitude and magic.

When I signed up for this experience, I had no idea of what to expect. I have been married for 37 years and was still trying to work on fixing “our” relationship. Discovery was 5 years ago. I read and listened to so many podcasts and I’ve always been carrying so much information in my head but still didn’t feel right and was unable to find words to articulate it. Recently, I finally decided to focus on my own recovery.

This experience allowed me to truly surrender and be taken care of- mind body and spirit. I moved through grief that I’ve carried from the depths of my soul. I feel tangibly different and my husband has witnessed a shift in me. The other women were so beautiful and brave. We developed an incredible vulnerability and openness after experiencing so much shame and confusion. I felt honoured to share this experience together. Get to know each other deeply and watch us all transform and heal together while being seen and held tenderly by Trish.

Firstly we understood the trauma we had been through. The extent and to know we aren’t crazy. We worked through breathing, writing, drawing, painting, sound baths, drumming and sharing our voices. Being a part of the 8-day intensive has completely changed me forever. I am eternally grateful for the thought and care Trish has put into this one-of-a kind-experience. In the end it felt like years of therapy. I feel a clarity I’ve never experienced. A calm existence in a challenging world. I have gained so many skills to carry me forward and given me hope. I am forever indebted to Trish and Dr. Omer Minwalla. Thank you.

Trish distinctly stands alone at the summit of the trauma field. She is authentic, brilliant, gifted, and extremely accepting, wrapped with genuine profound love. Her quick insight and direction fostered an experience that unraveled the true essence of who I am and who I am now becoming. And not just me, but the other women of the Sister Cocoon were truly a sight to be seen. We were safely knitted together, cultivated by Trish’s deep compassion to help us all find true integrity healing. As a result of commonality, the journey never intended, forever friendships formed. We were all empowered by the clarity and language in identifying our traumas. The support has been priceless and validating. One of the most heartwarming tools I will continue to use is dropping into my essence of who I am. I found myself. I reconnected with myself. My true authentic beautiful self. The Sister Cocoon and Trish have imprinted an eternal impact. Thank you, Trish!

It was an honor and privilege to attend the Here I am Becoming, Sacred Sister Cocoon with Trish Haight. The topic of betrayal trauma felt complex, overwhelming, and heavy, so I was amazed when I found myself sharing and exploring at a deep level that I didn’t think was possible. On day one I was already feeling safe enough to tell the basic details of my story and at the end of the day when I said, “I can’t believe how deep we went today”, Trish said: “Oh we will be going much deeper.” I didn’t imagine I could go so much deeper. But, of course, we did. Trish created a container that was so nurturing and safe that I found myself excavating feelings and emotions that I had never identified or named before. I felt freedom of self-expression when I learned new vocabulary and language for my past experiences. Trish helped me and the entire group navigate intense and vulnerable territory in creative ways and I found myself laughing and crying and drumming and dancing and painting and forming beautiful bonds with my self and the other participants. I can’t recommend Trish’s intensive enough. Trish is a ninja healer with a huge myriad of skills and gifts. I will be forever grateful that I attended her intensive.

I wish I had never been in a position to know Trish or need this intensive, but with that said, I can’t imagine anyone better suited to guide betrayed partners on this healing journey. I sought out Trish a little over a year after discovery, feeling stuck and hopeless. I knew I didn’t want to remain buried in this trauma forever, but I lacked the tools and knowledge to move through it and toward healing.

From our very first conversation, Trish was overwhelmingly understanding and kind, instantly putting me at ease. Her deep knowledge of trauma, combined with her extraordinary empathy, created a safe environment that allowed for gentle navigation through these painful experiences.

Over the course of seven days, Trish created a true sanctuary that allowed for processing and healing. I didn’t have to think about or plan anything—she provided every material needed and ensured a comfortable, relaxing, and organized environment. Thoughtful music filled the air, we had opportunities to gather and time to be alone if needed, and a calming salt pool with fountains added to the tranquility of the space. The opportunity for expression and repair through drumming, art, writing, poetry, and other right-brain activities (even a sound bath!) was profoundly healing. Trish nourished not only my soul but also my body, providing delicious meals and having yummy snacks available at all times.

I left the intensive with new tools and resources for my healing journey, a renewed sense of hope for the future, and a clear plan of action to continue processing and moving through my trauma. I also left with a lifelong and heartfelt appreciation for Trish and the work she does; I already know she has been instrumental in my life and essential to my healing.
