Presenters/Authors

Teresa Descilo (), Trauma Resolution Center, dakini7@bellsouth.net;
Teresa Descilo, MSW, MCT is the Founder and Executive Director of the Trauma Resolution Center, fka Victim Services Center. Founded in 1995, the TRC is the first trauma-focused Community Mental Health Center and state licensed substance abuse program in the US. This holistic, client-centered model has helped more than 13,500 human beings, from more than 80 countries, presenting with diverse trauma, resolve the impact of their experiences. Teresa has always believed in the resiliency of the human spirit and in the ability of each being to expand consciousness and tap inner strengths. She has explored many paths and cultures over the decades and has collected many effective techniques for dealing with stress, raising awareness and connecting to one’s spiritual source. She always found it unreasonable that anyone should be permanently labeled and identified with any condition, as most things pass or can be worked through with some discipline and diligence, with the benefit of gaining strength and awareness. Teresa founded her agency on these values. Those who complete the program, whether victim or offender, no longer test for posttraumatic stress, anxiety or depression.
