Emotional Trauma Release Services
Emotional trauma is not a weakness. It is the nervous system’s natural response to experiences that were overwhelming, cumulative, or impossible to process at the time.
When emotional trauma is not released, it remains stored in the body and nervous system, contributing to burnout, emotional exhaustion, anxiety, grief, impaired decision-making, and long-term health consequences such as chronic diseases and cancer.
Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat, MD, FACOG, offers focused, time-limited emotional trauma release interventions designed to restore regulation, clarity, and resilience. Her work integrates these four crisis-tested methods she developed; all grounded in emotional trauma–related acupressure points used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM):
- DCIRT – Dr. Carolle Instant Reset Technique: A 30-second intervention that immediately regulates the nervous system, restores safety, and presence.
- DCIAM – Dr. Carolle Instant Anti-Distress Method: A three-breath method combining controlled breathing, mind-centering, affirmations, and precision tapping.
- DCSRT – Dr. Carolle Self-Reset Technique: A 30-second self-regulation method for moments of mental overload, tension headaches, or loss of focus, particularly while working or carrying responsibility for others.
- METRT – Murat Emotional Trauma Release Technique: A brief (2–3 minute) deep trauma-release process developed to regulate the nervous system, release stored emotional trauma, and restore human presence in moments of distress. It is applied only by Dr. Carolle during training or individual sessions and only when explicitly requested. METRT is not taught as a general technique and is reserved for those who require deeper emotional trauma release.
These techniques are grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles and adapted for modern clinical use.

One-day community healing for schools, hospitals, and organizations after shootings, workplace violence, natural disasters, or community trauma.

Clergy & Spiritual Leaders
Spiritual care professionals carry the grief, crisis, and trauma of their entire congregation, often with no one carrying theirs. This intensive half-day training provides immediate stabilization tools for pastoral care, along with individualized trauma-release support to sustain the sacred work of serving others through their darkest moments.
First Responders
First responders face repeated exposure to acute trauma that requires more than standard stress-management tools. This intensive one-day training provides immediate stabilization methods for use in the field, along with individualized trauma-release support to address accumulated stress from years of service.
Caregivers
Caregivers give everything to others — often at the cost of their own wellbeing. This intensive half-day training provides immediate nervous system regulation tools for use with clients, along with practical self-care strategies to prevent burnout and sustain the demanding work of caregiving.
Community Workers
Community workers absorb the trauma of entire communities while navigating crisis after crisis with limited support. This intensive half-day training provides immediate stabilization tools for frontline work, along with trauma-release techniques to address the cumulative weight of serving others in distress.
Individuals Support
This work is for individuals carrying emotional pain related to trauma, grief, loss, emotional shock, or life-altering events.
Sessions focus on addressing root emotional causes, not just coping, using a three-step process and techniques to help release stored emotional pain and restore a sense of safety, clarity, and inner calm.
Sessions are available in person in San Diego or by telephone, depending on individual circumstances and alignment.
Physicians Support
This work is adapted explicitly for physicians experiencing moral injury, burnout, secondary trauma, compassion fatigue, emotional numbness, or the feeling of “I can’t keep doing this.”
Using a structured 3-Step Emotional Reset, sessions help physicians release accumulated trauma, restore nervous system balance, and regain clarity—without requiring them to leave medicine.

My brother-in-law was tragically gunned down right in front of our house, a very safe neighborhood, during a family gathering with about twenty of us present. The shock and trauma left us paralyzed—none of us could eat, sleep, or even step outside. We have three children, and although we took them to a therapist the next day, nothing seemed to alleviate our anguish.
Three days later, Dr. Carolle visited us. She spent time with each of us, listening with empathy and laying her hands on us individually. Just her presence seemed to lift the dark energy that had engulfed our home. It was as if she brought peace and comfort with her, soothing us like a healing surgical procedure with no post-operative pain. That night, for the first time since the tragedy, everyone in our family slept soundly. Dr. Carolle’s compassionate guidance gave us the strength to face the painful tasks ahead—planning the funeral, speaking with detectives, and handling the media. It felt surreal as if the terrible event had happened somewhere distant. Thanks to her, we were able to begin moving forward.”
