Is Trauma Still Shaping Your Life?
You might be here because:
You've been in therapy for years and still feel stuck in the same place.
Nightmares, flashbacks or a constant sense of threat make it hard to rest.
You feel numb, empty or like there's a void inside you.
The same painful patterns keep showing up in your relationships.
You function well on the outside, but inside you're exhausted.
You don't recognize the person you've become since something happened.
What happened in childhood still feels like it's happening now.
Trauma doesn't stay in the past. It lives in your nervous system, your relationships and the way you see yourself. The good news: with the right treatment, it can be resolved.
What makes UCTR different
Many of our clients come to us after years of weekly talk therapy. They've gained insight, but the trauma is still running their lives. We work differently.
1
Longer, focused sessions
90-minute sessions give us time to process trauma fully instead of stopping just as the work gets started.
Every client follows a clear sequence, from stabilization to processing to rebuilding, so you always know where you are and what comes next.
2
A defined path
Healing doesn't pause between appointments. Messaging support, a workbook and practical tools keep you moving forward.
3
Support between sessions
How Treatment Works: The Integrated Trauma Resolution Model (ITRM)
The Integrated Trauma Resolution Model (ITRM) is a structured, four-phase trauma treatment framework developed by Jordan Meyer at the Utah Center for Trauma Recovery. It moves clients through nervous system stabilization, trauma processing with EMDR, identity rebuilding and future planning, in a defined sequence over about 90 days.
Four steps, shown as numbered cards:
Stabilize. Calm your nervous system and build the skills to feel safe in your body again.
Process. Resolve traumatic memories at their root using EMDR and ITRM-based techniques.
Rebuild. Reconnect with who you are now, not who trauma told you to be.
Move forward. Set a clear direction for your life with the tools to sustain it.
Who we help
Complex PTSD
For adults whose trauma happened over months or years, not in a single moment, and who feel it in every part of life.
Childhood Trauma & Abuse
For adults still carrying neglect, abuse or chaos from childhood, often as shame, anxiety or a feeling of never being enough.
Single-Event Trauma
For accidents, assaults, sudden loss and other moments that divided life into "before" and "after."
Injury & Medical Trauma
For people whose injury, illness or medical experience left fear, hypervigilance or a changed sense of self, even after the body healed.
Jordan Meyer, MA, CCTP | PhD Candidate, Performance Psychology | Licensed Trauma Therapist | EMDR-Certified Clinician | Keynote Speaker
At 16, a spinal injury ended my athletic career overnight. Relearning to walk was hard. Rebuilding my identity was harder. That experience, the collapse of self after a life-altering event, and the long process of rebuilding, became the foundation of everything I do.
I'm a trauma therapist, PhD candidate in performance psychology, and the creator of the Identity Reconstruction Model (IRM). I've worked with athletes, executives, trauma survivors, and high performers navigating the same fundamental question: who am I now that everything has changed? I founded UCTR because I lived that question myself, and because I knew there was a better answer than indefinite weekly therapy. The ITRM is that answer.
If you've survived something that changed who you are, I understand that more than most. And I built this practice specifically for you.

Every program at UCTR is built on the Integrated Trauma Resolution Model (ITRM).A structured clinical approach that fully resolves trauma and rebuilds identity, not just manages symptoms. Treatment is structured, supported between sessions, and designed around you

Where Your Recovery Begins
Every client starts here. Before any treatment begins, we complete a comprehensive trauma diagnostic assessment — a full clinical picture of your history, symptoms, identity patterns, and nervous system functioning. This is how we build a treatment plan that's actually specific to you, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Includes:
2-hour clinical diagnostic assessment
Full trauma history and symptom evaluation
Nervous system and identity pattern assessment
Personalized treatment plan built on the ITRM framework
(Price waived when paid as part of a program package)
-
For those who've done the healing work — and are ready to build.
Not therapy. This is forward-focused coaching for adults who have already stabilized and want to develop performance, purpose, and direction. Grounded in performance psychology and Jordan's PhD research on identity reconstruction, this program helps high-achievers reconnect with their identity and build toward specific goals.
Available in-office or virtually.
Best for: Athletes post-injury or post-career, executives in transition, high performers, trauma survivors who have done the healing work and are ready to move forward with intention and momentum.
-
Focused trauma work without a long-term commitment.
Designed for clients who want to begin real trauma processing and see meaningful progress before committing to a full program. Six 90-minute sessions of structured, intensive ITRM-based treatment, not 6 weeks of talk therapy.
Includes:
Six 90-minute trauma therapy sessions
Trauma Workbook to be done at your own pace
EMDR trauma processing
Identity reconstruction work
Nervous system stabilization strategies
Messaging support between sessions when needed
Swag bag with curated trauma recovery tools
Best for: Adults who want focused, results-driven trauma work with room to continue into a longer program.
-
Community-based healing with clinical structure.
A structured 3-month group program for adults ready to move from surviving to growing. Combines psycho-education, group processing, and skill development; all grounded in the ITRM framework.
Includes:
Bi-Weekly group sessions (psychoeducation + process groups)
ITRM-based skills training and lessons
Access to the UCTR workbook
One 90-minute individual one-on-one session
Best for: Adults who have done some trauma work and are ready to build community, develop skills, and reclaim their identity in a supported group environment.
-
Our most comprehensive program — therapy and coaching combined.
This is the flagship UCTR program. Designed for adults who are ready to fully resolve their trauma, rebuild their identity, and step into their next chapter — not spend another year in maintenance therapy. The 90-Day program combines structured trauma therapy with coaching, built around the ITRM, so that every session moves you forward on a defined clinical path.
Unlike open-ended therapy, this is plan-driven. Sessions that would typically be used for venting need to be scheduled separately, because this program is designed to produce transformation, not just provide a space to talk.
Includes:
Weekly 90-minute trauma therapy sessions
EMDR and ITRM-based trauma processing
Identity reconstruction work
Nervous system regulation training
Coaching and between-session support
UCTR workbook and resource toolkit
a take-home recovery toolkit.
Best for: Adults committed to full recovery, not symptom management. Especially powerful for those who have experienced identity collapse following injury, loss, abuse, or life-altering events.
-
Rapid, deep trauma resolution — condensed into days, not months.
For clients who need to make rapid progress or who are traveling from out of state. Our multi-day intensive format compresses months of trauma work into a focused, immersive experience. Conducted in person, this program is built for adults who can't wait for weekly appointments to create change.
Best for: Out-of-state clients, high-performers, and anyone whose schedule or urgency requires an accelerated path to recovery.
