Healing Within Overview

“Trauma happens in relationships, and it heals in relationships.”

Our individual intensive is a four-day customized program designed to provide a space for healing past wounds while fostering hope for today and each day moving forward.  Individuals will address their particular issues while focusing on their particular goals with no group work.  Intensives create a safe space for the mind and body to be removed from the demands of life which is not afforded in weekly one on one therapeutic sessions.  Creating this space will allow you to uncover unhealthy patterns, feelings and beliefs that are impeding your life.

During an individual intensive the participant will work individually with Ms. Bassett and her team.

The Individual Intensive will help you:

  • Identify the trauma source
  • Discover the impact of trauma on the mind and the body
  • Explore and understand family of origin and generational influences
  • Understand the role of shame in your journey
  • Re-frame your journey to that of grace and gratitude
  • Reconnect with self
  • Identify tools to regulate emotions and resolve conflict

"If you come with an open mind and you are looking for some healing and a way to move forward, this is it."

— Kirk, Former Intensive Client

Hi there, I’m Tonya L. Bassett, LCSW, CADC, CTT! I’m honored to work with individuals who are ready to heal from trauma and transform their lives. For over two decades, I’ve dedicated myself to guiding people toward healing and growth, with 2025 marking my 13th year leading trauma healing intensives. These intensives are the heart of my work—they’re a deeply transformative experience designed to provide the equivalent of a year of therapy in just one focused week.
As the founder of the Midwest’s first trauma intensive, Healing Within – A Trauma Healing Program, I developed a unique approach that combines experiential therapies and holistic practices, all set in the calming embrace of nature. In order to move towards healing, it is important to process the pain of our past. I treat the root while helping you manage your symptoms. I support your journey with immersive care and healing hospitality to help you reclaim your well-being.
Throughout my career, I’ve served in various roles that shape the way I support clients today. From working as a child welfare specialist and addiction therapist to developing treatment programs and educating professionals on trauma-informed care, I’ve seen the profound impact of addressing the roots of pain with compassion, body-based and relationship/attachment based practices.
When I’m not facilitating trauma intensives or working in my group practice, I enjoy spending time with my family, (including 6 amazing grandchildren), laughing, walking, baking and yoga.
If this resonates with you, I’d love to join you on your healing journey.

Hi there, I’m Laura Karr, MA, LCPC, CCTP-II
I’m passionate about creating a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you feel supported and empowered on your healing journey. Therapy with me is a partnership, where we honor the impact of your experiences and work together to uncover your inner resilience and strength.
The best way to work with me is at our 5-Day Trauma Healing Intensive Retreats at the Breathe Lodge—it’s like a year of therapy in just one week! These transformative experiences allow for deep healing and connection in a supportive and focused environment, helping you make significant progress in a short amount of time.
I specialize in complex trauma recovery, post-traumatic growth, and nervous system regulation. My approach integrates trauma-informed and polyvagal-informed techniques, using evidence-based methods to help you heal in ways that feel empowering and transformative. Whether you're seeking relief from overwhelming emotions, looking to break free from unhelpful patterns, or striving to reconnect with your authentic self, I am here to guide you.
I believe that healing is a deeply personal and courageous journey, and my own experiences with growth and recovery continue to inspire my work. My goal is to help you rediscover hope, create meaningful change, and move toward the life and relationships you desire.
When I’m not in the therapy room or facilitating retreats, I enjoy spending time in nature, practicing mindfulness, and exploring new ways to nurture personal growth. If this resonates with you, I’d be honored to walk alongside you as you take your next steps toward healing.
