关于 Recovery Trauma™
源自亲身经历。Built for life beyond survival mode.
Recovery Trauma™ is a survivor-created, trauma-informed wellbeing platform bringing together education, practical tools, guided reflection and community in one supportive space.
It was created from a simple idea:
What if the things that can support trauma recovery were easier to understand, easier to find and available in one place?
Why Recovery Trauma™ Exists
Because sometimes you need to understand what is happening.
Sometimes you need something that helps you regulate.
Sometimes you need space to process.
Sometimes you're ready to rebuild and integrate.
And sometimes you simply need to know:
I'm not the only person who has felt like this.
Recovery Trauma™ exists to create a place for all of those moments.

Mission
Healing Beyond Survival Mode™ — helping people better understand themselves, discover supportive tools and explore what recovery can look like for them.
Hi, I'm Jana Burkhardt.
Founder & CEO of Recovery Trauma™
Originally from Germany and now living in the United Kingdom, I created Recovery Trauma™ after years of navigating my own trauma and recovery journey.
My lived experience has included severe Complex PTSD (CPTSD), PTSD, BPD, anxiety and deep abandonment difficulties.
For a long time, I lived in survival mode without fully understanding why my mind and body reacted the way they did.
I spent more than eight years in therapy, alongside years of learning, searching, trying different approaches and slowly beginning to understand myself differently.
I didn't create Recovery Trauma™ because I believe I have discovered one answer to trauma.
I created it because I discovered there isn't just one.
Different things supported me at different stages.
That experience became one of the foundations of Recovery Trauma™.
“我打造了那个我曾为自己寻找过的平台。”
Thank you for being here.
With gratitude,
Jana Burkhardt
Founder, Recovery Trauma™

A Gentle Reminder
“You don't have to perform your healing.
You don't have to rush your healing.
You don't have to earn your healing.
You only need to keep showing up for yourself, gently and at your own pace.”

💛 Why I Chose These Tools
During my recovery, I wasn't only trying to understand what had happened to me. I was trying to understand what was happening inside me.
Over time, I explored many different approaches.
Some helped me feel grounded.
Some helped me recognise and name emotions.
Some helped me understand trauma responses.
Some gave me ways to express experiences that were difficult to put into words.
Some helped me reconnect with my body.
Others helped me understand relationships, boundaries, attachment, identity and the relationship between the mind and nervous system.
That is why Recovery Trauma™ doesn't present one method as “the answer.” Instead, it brings different trauma-informed concepts, reflective practices and practical tools together so people can explore what feels supportive for them.
Take what supports you. Explore at your own pace. Leave what doesn't feel right for you.
康复的四个领域
Recovery Trauma™ 围绕四个相互关联的领域展开。
理解
深入了解创伤、情绪、神经系统反应、依恋关系、人际关系以及行为模式。有时,理解事情发生的原因可以减轻随之而来的恐惧和困惑。
调节
探索旨在支持着陆、冷静、重新连接当下以及神经系统调节的实用练习。这些包括呼吸、着陆技巧、躯体练习、双侧练习、正念以及其他技术。
加工
通过日志记录、引导式提示、内在小孩工作、创意练习和其他反思方法,为反思和情绪探索创造空间。并非所有事情都能立即用语言解释。加工可以采取许多不同的形式。
整合
康复不仅仅是理解创伤。整合涉及探索人际关系、边界、身份认同、自我关怀、创造力、意义、身心健康,并逐渐建立一种不再完全围绕生存模式展开的生活。
Why I Built Recovery Trauma™
For years, the things I found useful were scattered everywhere.
“Why is all of this so difficult to find when you're already overwhelmed?”
Eventually, that question became Recovery Trauma™.
I created the original platform myself and began bringing together the tools, education, exercises, journals and experiences that reflected what I had searched for throughout my own healing journey.
Recovery Trauma™ has continued to grow from there.
- It is not a replacement for therapy.
- It is not a promise that one exercise will heal trauma.
- And it is not a programme telling you how quickly you should recover.
It is a place to understand, explore, practise, reflect and discover what may support you.
✨ A Note From Jana
Throughout Recovery Trauma™, you may see sections labelled “A Note From Jana.”
These are there for a reason.
I didn't want Recovery Trauma™ to feel like an anonymous collection of worksheets and exercises.
When you see A Note From Jana, I'm sharing something from my own lived experience — perhaps why I chose to include a particular exercise, something I personally learned during recovery, or why a particular subject matters to me.
These notes are personal reflections. They are not therapy, medical advice or professional recommendations.
Not every exercise will feel right for every person — and that's okay.
There is no single correct way to heal.
From Surviving to Healing Beyond Survival Mode™
Recovery can mean more than reducing symptoms.
Healing doesn't have to happen all at once. You can learn, explore and move forward at your own pace.
💛 A Personal Dedication
Recovery Trauma™ was created from lived experience, resilience and the belief that life beyond survival mode is possible.
There are two people whose place in my story I want to acknowledge.
I would first like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my father, who supported me throughout the development of Recovery Trauma™.
Thank you for believing in me, encouraging me, guiding me and reminding me to keep moving forward.
Your support became an important part of bringing this vision to life.
I would also like to dedicate Recovery Trauma™ to my mother.
8 March 1965 — 24 December 1996
Losing my mother changed my life forever.
That loss became part of a much longer journey of trying to understand trauma, grief, emotional pain, survival and eventually recovery.
Every lesson, every challenge and every step of my own healing journey contributed in some way to the creation of Recovery Trauma™.
Recovery Trauma™ is dedicated to you.
May something created from my own journey help another person feel understood, find support or discover hope within theirs.
With love,
Jana Burkhardt

With Gratitude
A Personal Acknowledgement
Recovery Trauma™ would not exist without the people who supported me throughout my own healing journey.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Nanneke Morgan, who was my therapist, for the support, compassion, insight and therapeutic guidance she provided during some of the most challenging periods of my life.
Eight years of therapy taught me many things, but perhaps one of the most important was that healing rarely happens completely alone.
Sometimes it is supported by people who create a safe space.
People who listen.
People who ask difficult questions with compassion.
People who help us see something differently.
And people who help us reconnect with ourselves when we feel lost.
Thank you for being part of my journey and for the work you continue to do supporting others.
With gratitude,
Jana Burkhardt
