Trish is also a Specialist in the Sex Addiction-Induced Trauma Model (SAITM). From September 2009-August 2014,
she worked alongside Dr. Omar Minwalla at The Institute for Sexual Health (ISH), where she helped flush out
SAITM with her bottom up approach for Sex Addicts, Partners of Sex Addicts, and Coupleships Impacted
Trish helped develop, mature, and launch the Partners 6-day Intensive at ISH from 2009- 2014 by interweaving her
experiential depth work Drop In and Land with SAITM and its Thirteen Dimensions of trauma (aka the fragments of
betrayal trauma). Many partners shared their experience as profound validation, grounding, healing, and of reclamation.

her private practice for the healing of partners, the recovery of addicts, and the restoration of coupleships.
