RECLAIMED
Nervous System Regulation for Breast Cancer Survivors
An 8-week group cohort with Dr. Heidi Roberts, PT, DPT | Somatic Practitioner
Oncology saved your life. But your nervous system didn't get the memo that treatment ended.
You finished treatment. Everyone celebrated. And then you were supposed to go back to your life—except the person who had that life no longer exists.
The lymphedema therapy helped—for a while. The pelvic floor PT made sense—but nothing stuck. The fatigue, the hypervigilance, the sense that your body is still on high alert—those didn't resolve because they can't resolve until your nervous system recalibrates.
This isn't about trying harder. You're not protocol-resistant. The protocols were missing the prerequisite.
RECLAIMED provides the nervous system foundation that makes everything else sustainable. Not another modality to try. The reason the others didn't stick.
The medical system cleared you to resume your life. But your body is still bracing for the next threat.
RECLAIMED is clinical nervous system work in community with women who understand without explanation. Not a support group. Not wellness coaching. Targeted regulation skills you can actually use.
July 6 - August 28, 2026 | Limited to 8 women
Who This Program Serves
RECLAIMED is designed for women who:
Finished primary treatment at least 6 months ago (surgery, chemo, radiation)—allowing time for acute treatment side effects to stabilize so we can address underlying nervous system patterns
Are medically cleared to participate in gentle movement and breathwork
Recognize the "my body is still bracing" experience
Have tried other interventions that helped temporarily, but didn't stick
This program is not appropriate for women who:
Are currently undergoing acute treatment (surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation)
Have unmanaged medical complications requiring immediate clinical attention
Are looking for support group processing or peer counseling
If you're unsure whether this program is right for you, a complimentary call will help us determine whether it's a good fit. The complimentary call isn't a sales conversation. It's a clinical conversation about whether this program matches where you are right now.
Program Structure
Structure
8 weekly 90-minute group sessions via secure video platform, with optional 30-minute open practice for women who want additional integration time.
Group size limited to 8. The community container is not incidental—it's the clinical mechanism.
Each session includes:
Guided nervous system practices (breathwork, grounding, movement, sensation tracking, self-contact, somatic inquiry, and other regulation tools responsive to what emerges in the group)
Structured skill-building in a co-regulated community
Between-session practice framework (5-10 minutes daily)
Timeline: July 6 - August 28, 2026
The 8-Week Arc
The program moves through three phases, each building on the last:
Phase 1: Survive → Recognize (Sessions 1–2) Track the moment your body shifts from bracing to present — and practice staying there without needing to fix, explain, or make it mean something. Practices include breathwork to activate your peripheral nervous system and grounding to restore a felt sense of safety.
Phase 2: Safety → Recalibrate (Sessions 3–5) Build tolerance for sensations that aren't dangerous, just unfamiliar. Practice co-regulation in community with women who understand without explanation. Practices include bilateral tapping to track internal sensation, gentle movement to release freeze, and boundary work to restore your sense of protected space.
Phase 3: Sovereignty → Reclaim (Sessions 6–8) Integrate regulation skills under real-world demand. Stay present when life asks you to perform, produce, or push through. Practices include self-regulation tools for big emotions, freeze recovery, and a full integration inventory of your somatic resources.
This is not about learning concepts. It's about structured practice in a container that makes daily regulation sustainable.
Your Investment
Program Investment: $2,400
(Eight 90-minute sessions + daily practice framework)
Founding Cohort Rate: $1,800. Available for the first 8 women who enroll.
This rate reflects the collaborative nature of a first cohort — your experience, feedback, and insights will directly shape how this program evolves for every woman who comes after you. Future cohorts return to standard pricing.
Satisfaction Guarantee: If, after Session 3, this program isn't the right fit, I'll refund your investment for the remaining sessions. My goal is for you to be in the right container — not just enrolled in one. Sessions attended are billed at the per-session rate.
Full payment is required at enrollment to secure your spot in this limited cohort.
Not sure if this is the right fit? That's what the complimentary call is for.
What This Is Not
This is not trauma therapy. I don't direct emotional processing or interpret your experience.
What I do: Provide the nervous system foundation that allows emotional processing to happen safely—whether that's in your own therapy, in your journal, or simply in your body's own timeline.
Think of this as prerequisite coursework. The foundation that makes your other work finally land.
I am not an oncologist, surgeon, or medical provider managing your cancer care. I work in collaboration with your medical team, not as a replacement for it.
Why I Do This Work
I'm Dr. Heidi Roberts, a licensed physical therapist with 19 years of clinical experience, currently completing Somatic Experiencing certification. I'm also a breast cancer survivor who navigated this exact recalibration.
Between 2020 and today, I've engaged in over six years of progressive, layered personal recalibration work — not counting cancer-related medical care. Hoffman Process. EMDR. Somatic Experiencing personal work. The Healing Trauma Program (Hakomi). Holistic Life Navigation. Primal Trust™. Somatic Experiencing® professional training.
And a lifetime of self-study that began long before my diagnosis — work at the leading edge of trauma research. I've brought this work into OSU's Master of Counseling program, onto the Moth Talk stage in Sisters, OR, and into clinical co-facilitation at BigTree Behavioral Health and Therapeutic Associates in Bend and Redmond, OR.
RECLAIMED is the distillation of what actually moved the needle — sequenced, clinically grounded, and built specifically for the post-treatment nervous system.
Across nearly two decades of PT practice, I've worked with athletes, post-surgical patients, chronic pain cases, and breast cancer survivors navigating post-treatment recalibration. Those who made lasting progress weren't the ones with the best rehab protocol or the most medication adherence.
They were the ones whose nervous systems finally got the signal: the threat is over. It's safe to stop bracing.
I built RECLAIMED specifically for breast cancer survivors because I kept watching women get discharged as "recovered" while their bodies stayed in survival mode. The medical system did its job. But nobody was addressing what kept the body locked in survival mode.
This program exists because your body's intelligence deserves a clinical container that meets it where it is—not where the treatment plan says you should be.
Your Questions, Answered
-
Because treatment doesn’t automatically reset your nervous system. Your body learned to brace for threat during diagnosis and treatment — scans, procedures, waiting, and physical trauma. When treatment ends, the medical system declares you recovered. Your nervous system hasn’t received that signal yet.
-
Support groups provide peer connection and emotional processing — valuable, but not what this is. RECLAIMED is structured clinical work: guided nervous system practices, skill-building, and co-regulation in a group of 8 women who understand without explanation. You’re not here to process your story. You’re here to recalibrate your physiology.
-
No. Nervous system dysregulation doesn’t resolve on its own with time — it resolves with the right kind of work. Women join RECLAIMED 6 months to 5+ years post-treatment. The body responds to regulation work regardless of how long it’s been stuck.
-
Because those interventions are downstream of nervous system regulation. When your nervous system is stuck in survival physiology, your body can’t fully integrate the gains from other work. RECLAIMED addresses the prerequisite layer that makes everything else sustainable.
-
No. This is clinical nervous system work — structured, sequenced, and informed by somatic work. It requires you to maintain active relationships with your medical providers. It does not replace therapy, oncology care, or medical treatment.
-
The founding cohort rate is $1,800 (standard investment $2,400). This includes 8 weekly 90-minute group sessions via secure video, a between-session practice framework, and access to a co-regulated community of 8 women. RECLAIMED is private pay only — no insurance billing or medical necessity documentation.

Heart, head, and body-led. Unhurried presence. Most practitioners start with your story. I start with your nervous system. Schedule a complimentary call to experience it directly.
-
Co-regulation is the clinical mechanism. That requires a container small enough that every woman's nervous system is known, not managed. Eight is the upper limit of that.
