Living in the after
You survived what happened. Now comes everything after.
Rooted in Resilience offers trauma-informed education and lived-experience perspectives for life after trauma, loss, addiction, depression, frontline exposure, and other major disruptions.
No diagnosis. No forced optimism. Just clear information and a next step you can choose.
BUILT FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE EMERGENCY
Professional perspective and lived experience, in the same room.
Rooted in Resilience was founded by Teri L. Busse, an author and advocate who spent more than 25 years responding to other people’s worst days, before trauma, grief, addiction and rebuilding became part of her own life.
This platform brings professional perspective and lived experience together to help people understand what happens after survival.
What you’ll find here
