Trauma Informed Mental Wellness Through Yoga

Professor Tinkham was a mentor to me during my Masters of Social Work program at Fordham University. Not only was she an excellent teacher, but also genuinely cared for the wellbeing and professional development of each individual student. Professor Tinkham holds herself to a high moral standard and encourages students to reach their highest potential with compassion and care. I highly recommend Pamela as a teacher, therapist, author, and more.

I highly recommend Pamela's course for anyone who wishes to heal from anything in life that has caused them distress. Pamela is a gentle, compassionate educator and she states that she is a "Mentor or coach; not a teacher, because we are all on this journey together as equal partners.

This was the best professor I have taken at this school. An asset. She was very organized, caring, gave great lectures on the spot and made the class feel like a family. Students really opened up about themselves and she also taught us how to work with clients effectively. Participation definitely mattered. You will not regret taking her class.

Whether you suffer from PTSD or other trauma, if you have the opportunity to work with Pamela Tinkham you should seize it. Once correctly diagnosed with CPTSD by a Yale neuro-cog specialist, my psychiatrist referred me to Pamela. She trained with the Somatic Experiencing trauma therapy pioneer Peter Levine. I previously worked with several therapists before Pamela. None reached me the way she has. Her humanity and insight are profound. Don't be fooled by her seemingly light touch. Hers is a gentle and deeply healing soul. Because of this, she disarms and penetrates to the core incredibly quickly. I was floored by the speed and impact of the therapeutic connection she established with me. Before I engaged with Pamela, I was unrecognizable to people who knew me best. A year and a bit later I fully reinhabited myself. CPTSD is rooted in early-life trauma that keeps retriggering and takes longer to unravel than most event-based trauma. The difference to me and others who know me is marked. I recognize myself again. I know infinitely more about myself. I am stronger by an order of magnitude. Proof you want? A week after we wrapped up, I was diagnosed with cancer and in surgery the next day. I've met it head on with a calm and clear-headedness like I've never known. I'm unafraid but not out of the woods yet. With the help of Pamela's intervention I know I will get there. I recommend her to you without qualification, reservation, or hesitation. I've never met or worked with anyone like her. She is one special trauma healer. Don't miss out on her gift.
