Nara and Freddy's CPT is starting soon! Certified Practitioner Training (CPT) is different than our Certification Training Intensives (CTI) and is designed for anyone to attend, no matter where you are in your NHA transformation.​​

Reading any of the NHA books or having watched our NHA Fundamentals is not a pre-requisite but you may find those helpful before taking the course.​ If you are new to NHA, need more hands-on guidance, or need a refresher, CPT is designed for you. Immerse yourself in a transformative experience with an NHA Certified Advanced Trainer. Join like-minded parents, professionals, and educators in a virtual setting and explore how NHA can help you develop stronger relationships and cultivate Inner Wealth. Gain an in-depth understanding of NHA’s 3 Stands, Resets, Recognitions, and your own Greatness! Limited spots available – reserve your place for this empowering journey.​ Successful completion of a CPT makes you a Certified Practitioner for life. After attending a CPT, if you want to become a Certified Trainer of NHA, your CPT payment will be applied as a credit towards your CTI registration fee.​ Link in comments!

✨A 5-Week Transformational Group with Bridget Saladino, LPC, MDiv, PAT Therapist & NHA Advanced Trainer✨

Step into a safe, science-backed process that blends the Nurtured Heart Approach with the breakthroughs of neuroplasticity and memory reconsolidation. In this experiential group, you’ll gently rescript old memories and patterns, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect to your most empowered self.

This group is for you if you...
🌱 Already practice the Nurtured Heart Approach and are ready to focus on your own healing
🌀 Want to heal and release trauma without reliving or retelling painful stories
🧠 Feel stuck in subconscious patterns you’re ready to shift
⚡️ Crave a reset that’s both science-based and soul-deep

What you’ll experience:
🔁 Rewire limiting beliefs using memory reconsolidation & bilateral stimulation
💖 Transform subconscious pain into Inner Wealth – no storytelling required
🧘‍♀️ Embed lasting change using SARAH & Notching In self-coaching tools

Practical Details
✅ 5 weekly sessions (75–90 minutes)
✅ HSA/FSA Eligible
✅ Free for Oregon Health Plan members

Why this matters:
Our own childhoods, and other painful memories, live deep in our subconscious mind and dictate our natural/reflexive behaviors and responses to other people. The latest neuroscience can rewire this, breaking old patterns, and transforming us from the inside out. You don’t need to retell painful stories to heal. Instead, you’ll discover how to unlock and rewrite old emotional patterns while strengthening Inner Wealth. This is more than a class — it’s a reset for your nervous system and your relationships.

✨ Empowerment starts within. ✨
