RESET: A Mind-Body IOP for Trauma

Group of men exercising in a park.

The RESET Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) offers a unique, evidence-based approach to trauma treatment that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. Designed for adults 18+ whose trauma affects daily functioning, RESET integrates somatic therapies to support nervous system regulation and healing through mind-body connection. The RESET IOP is offered with the Stress, Trauma, Adversity, Research & Treatment (START) Center, a collaborative hub of interdisciplinary experts committed to trauma-informed care and healing approaches to treatment.

RESET is the only in-person IOP in Colorado focused on treating complex trauma through body-centered psychotherapies. The program combines movement, mindfulness and experiential therapies to help patients reconnect with their bodies and emotions in a safe, supportive environment.


Who can benefit from RESET?

RESET is designed for individuals 18+ with a history of trauma that impacts their daily lives. This includes—but is not limited to—those experiencing:

  • Post-traumatic stress symptoms
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Mood disorders
  • Interpersonal distress
  • Dissociation

Treatment Approach

RESET utilizes a variety of evidence-based somatic therapies, including:

  • EMDR in groups
  • Narrative & Written Exposure Therapies
  • Trauma-Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY)
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS or “parts work”)
  • Sand Tray Therapy
  • Nervous system resets (based on polyvagal theory)
  • “Reset corners” for grounding and regulation

 

Program Schedule

RESET is an 8-week program:

  • Weeks 1–6: In-person sessions at CU Anschutz campus, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
  • Weeks 7–8: Virtual care delivered in the patient’s home setting, same schedule as above

Participants may discharge earlier or extend their participation based on individual needs.

Patients will be enrolled during weeks 1 and 4 of the IOP program, so wait times may be dependent on this time frame as well as insurance verification processes.

  • Acute psychosis or mania
