Meet Dr. Aimie
Aimie Apigian
Dr. Aimie Apigian, MD MS MPH is the leading medical expert on how life experiences get stored in the body and accelerating the trauma healing journey through her signature model and methodology, The Biology of Trauma®.
Dr. Aimie truly is the physician who has gone on her own journey.
Dr. Aimie shares:
“Drawn to foster care and hurting children, I fostered and then adopted a 4-year-old boy during medical school. Bringing with him the trauma that he had experienced in his early years, he ultimately challenged every aspect of my way of thinking, my medical training, and even my spiritual beliefs.
Fueled by how my life has been affected by attachment trauma beginning with my father and needing to address my own insecure attachment patterns, my purpose is to share what I have learned to accelerate the healing journey of attachment trauma of others.”
Dr. Aimie Apigian, MD, MS, MPH, is a double Board-Certified Physician, boarded in both Preventive and Addiction Medicine with a Masters in Biochemistry and a Masters in Public Health. She is a leader, speaker and founder of Trauma Healing Accelerated, LLC where she not only continues to lead individuals in their own healing journey but trains professionals around the world to do the same.
After a few years in a general surgery residency in Portland, OR, Dr. Aimie decided to forge her career path as a Trauma, Attachment and Addiction Medicine Physician. She believes the healing journey can be accelerated by bringing in the biology piece to trauma and applying strategic tools to address the chronic effects of trauma in ones body. Having both parented children with effects from attachment and trauma issues and then having her own health challenges from chronic stress and traumas, she is intensely invested on finding what actually works practically and how to restore the body to its highest potential for health optimizing the biology.
In addition to her medical training, she is also a Functional Medicine physician and has training and certifications specifically in neuro-autoimmunity, nutrition and genetics for addictions, mental health, and mood and behavioral disorders.
She has a number of certifications in various trauma therapies including Instinctual Trauma Response Model (an art trauma therapy), Somatic Experiencing (developed by Dr. Peter Levine), and NeuroAffective Touch (Dr. Aline LaPierre). Dr. Aimie enjoys bridging the gap between what she sees happening in these trauma therapies and a person’s biology and nervous system.
What If..?
Imagine How Different Your Life Could Be if You Were Actually Fully Present Rather Than Just Reacting…
Does This Sound Like You?
- You Are Here Physically, But Not Emotionally.
- You Struggle To Have The Energy To Be Present.
- You Lose Hours Staring At A Screen.
- Your Mind Wanders Off In A Meeting Or A Conversation.
- You Suffer From Physical Symptoms You Believe Are Stress-related Such As Headaches, Nausea, Joint Pain, Or Stomachaches.
How Is That Working For You?
You’ve tried your best to change the pattern; tried to strengthen your willpower, but your body will “sabotage” you by shutting down or over-reacting when you don’t want it to.
Certain therapies keep the focus on just the brain and don’t address the body, and may actually make things worse. These are the dangerous yet standard practices of addressing stored trauma. It’s not your fault, change IS possible when you know what to do.
