Who This Training Is For
This training is designed for teachers, counselors, school staff, and administrators who manage:
- Classroom trauma and student emotional crises
- Behavioral escalations and meltdowns
- Parent and family emergencies
- The cumulative emotional weight of supporting children in distress
Educators absorb student pain every day while maintaining professional composure. Over time, this leads to compassion fatigue and burnout that traditional professional development does not adequately address.
What Your Staff Will Learn and Experience
DCIRT – Dr. Carolle’s Instant Reset Technique
30-second acupressure intervention educators can use when students experience acute emotional distress, including:
- Meltdowns
- Panic attacks
- Overwhelming emotions
- Crisis moments
DCIRT can be applied in:
- Classrooms
- Counseling offices
- Hallways or common areas
Staff may also use this technique with colleagues or parents experiencing emotional overwhelm.
DCIAM – Dr. Carolle’s Instant Anti-Distress Method
A 3-breath parasympathetic activation technique with dual application:
- Before difficult parent meetings for centering
- Between challenging classroom situations for reset
- At the end of the day for emotional release
- As needed throughout the school day
Staff also learn how to teach DCIAM to students and parents for ongoing emotional regulation and stress management.
DCSRT – Dr. Carolle’s Self-Reset Technique
A self-administered technique using the middle fingers placed on the Third Eye point (the space between the eyebrows in the center of the forehead) and thumbs positioned on the temples in a C-curve around the face with circular massage.
DCSRT is used for:
- Administrative overwhelm
- Paperwork and documentation frustration
- Meeting fatigue
- Tension headaches and cognitive overload
Provides immediate mental clarity and nervous system reset in 30 seconds.
METRT – Murat Emotional Trauma Release Technique
Optional individual 2–3 minute hands-on trauma release sessions for staff requesting personal restoration.
METRT addresses accumulated secondary trauma educators carry from years of supporting students through:
- Poverty and food insecurity
- Abuse and neglect
- Family crises
- Illness, violence, and loss
Note:
DCIRT and DCIAM are always used together for trauma situations.
DCSRT is used specifically for non-traumatic stress and overwhelm.

Why This Works
These techniques have been crisis-tested in faith communities and mass trauma settings with documented long-term effectiveness:
- 2008 Hurricane Katrina – first responders and survivors with sustained effectiveness documented 17 years later
- 2010 Haiti Earthquake – hundreds of first responders and survivors under extreme conditions
- 2012 San Diego Mesa College: Student suicide witnessed by 20 staff members. Lead therapist (licensed LMFT) confirmed results LONG-LASTING 13 years later: “Nothing short of miraculous. Although this may deviate from traditional forms of therapy and trauma response, it is clearly effective, long-lasting, and can assist in all aspects of recovery—and it sticks.”
- Multiple mass trauma responses, including shootings, community violence, and critical incidents
- 25+ years serving as co-administrator of Hôpital St. Joseph in Haiti under extreme crisis conditions
- December 2024–present: Multi-city crisis tour in Ohio and New York supporting Haitian congregations following political attacks. Emergency on-call support for the Haitian Bridge Alliance’s severe trauma cases, including assaults, police brutality, and acute crises. Work monthly with 150-200+ traumatized immigrants and staff providing trauma-related care.
- March 2025–present: AKESNA Sisters religious congregation, Haiti. Two sisters were murdered; the remaining sisters continued the ministry using these techniques
- Multiple faith-community responses following violence, tragedy, and loss
What Makes This Different
Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat is a board-certified physician (MD, FACOG) with over 40 years of medical experience. She developed these techniques after experiencing severe professional burnout herself.
She serves as co-administrator of a hospital in Haiti, where she has led teams under extreme crisis conditions for over 25 years.
These methods are:
- Neurobiologically grounded
- Refined through real-world school and community crisis response
- Not theoretical wellness or resilience programs
Dual Benefit
This training provides a dual outcome:
- Enhanced student support
- Immediate, practical interventions for students in emotional distress
- Staff wellbeing protection Prevents burnout that contributes to educator turnover and early exit
Staff can apply these techniques immediately—during their very next student crisis.
Crisis Response Availability
Following school tragedies, student deaths, violence, or other traumatic events, Dr. Carolle is available to provide immediate trauma-release support for staff and students.
