Kristina Miller brings the nervous system, trauma, and family preservation to life for the rooms that need it most — naming what others talk around, and giving teams language they can actually use on Monday morning.
Kristina Miller is the founder of Until They're All Safe and the author of seven books on trauma, the nervous system, and family survival. Her work sits where most people never manage to stand at once: deep in the research and deep in the lived experience.
She doesn't speak about families from a distance — she speaks as someone who has navigated the systems she now helps others understand. That combination is what makes a room go quiet. Audiences leave with the rare thing: clarity they can act on.
Each can be delivered as a keynote, a breakout, or expanded into a workshop. All are tailored to your audience.
Trauma isn't only a memory — it's a state the body holds. This talk maps how it settles into the nervous system, how it surfaces in everyday life, the effects it leaves, and what it actually feels like from the inside. The one that helps a room finally name what they've been carrying.
What happens when harm collides with conscience — and why moral injury so often hides inside trauma. An exploration of the wound that comes not just from what happened to us, but from what violated what we believe is right, and where the two intersect.
The nervous-system science behind extreme behaviors — why traditional discipline backfires, and what regulation-first care looks like in practice. For anyone who works with dysregulated children.
Why healing can't be scheduled, and what it costs families when systems rush them. A reframe of trauma-informed care that puts the body — not the timeline — at the center.
What our research reveals about what really happens when families ask for help — and the gap between the system's intentions and a family's reality. Data that changes the conversation.
A case for resourcing families before the breaking point — and a vision for the next era of family preservation. Equal parts evidence, lived experience, and call to action.
Bring trauma-informed, neuro-somatic practice to your team — built for the systems that serve children and families every day.
A practical, body-based training for staff who work with children displaying extreme behaviors — moving teams from managing behavior to understanding it.

Half-day, full-day, or multi-session intensives designed around your organization's specific challenges, population, and goals.
