In long-term care it is increasingly apparent that who is on shift is just as important as how many staff are on shift. Quality care is difficult to achieve when we do not routinely engage with one another in a positive, or civil, manner.

Regulation is the new resilience: How EMDR heals trauma and burnout part two

This session reframes resilience not as pushing through adversity, but as the ability to recover and regulate under pressure.

“Regulation is the new resilience” is a call to action for individuals and organizations to shift how they approach stress, leadership, and mental well-being. This session reframes resilience not as pushing through adversity, but as the ability to recover and regulate under pressure. Using metaphors, neuroscience, and live techniques like EMDR-based tapping, it helps participants understand how upgrading their nervous system is not only possible — it’s essential. In a world that updates technology constantly, our inner operating systems deserve the same level of care.

Objectives:

  • Create urgency around early intervention for stress and burnout, especially for leaders and high-impact roles.
  • Reframe resilience as the ability to regulate and reset the nervous system, not just power through adversity.
  • Introduce the EMDR framework as a science-backed, fast-acting, non-verbal tool for processing stress.
  • Guide a live nervous system reset, offering participants a direct experience of immediate, low-effort relief.
  • Empower participants to view emotional regulation as a trainable skill that prevents long-term damage.


Outcomes:

  • Participants recognize the hidden cost of waiting and the importance of proactive regulation.
  • They walk away with a memorable metaphor (Old OS vs. New OS) to explain nervous system upgrades.
  • They experience a real-time shift in how their body feels during and after the tapping session.
  • They learn how EMDR and SHIFT Quick™ sessions can be used without reliving trauma or sharing personal stories.
  • Participants feel equipped and motivated to seek further support, knowing it’s accessible, anonymous, and covered by benefits.

Presented by

A Registered Clinical Counsellor (BCACC), a Certified EMDR Therapist (EMDRIA), and a Mental Performance Specialist, Kara Kalin is well-respected for her extensive work integrating mental health support with high performance. With her roots as a national-level athlete and a coach for the Canadian National Team, Kara has spent over two decades at the intersection of high performance and psychological resilience. Kara’s distinctive approach marries her deep understanding of mental fortitude with the transformative power of EMDR therapy. Her extensive training and experience in EMDR have not only solidified her reputation as a leader in mental wellness but also fueled her commitment to pioneering its application beyond traditional settings. Having successfully supported many clients who are frontline workers through EMDR therapy in her private practice, Kara envisioned an online platform where she could amplify this support nation-wide and revolutionize mental health support for frontline workers, providing at-the-ready online mental health support after every shift. Shift Change is that vision in action.
