Research

Dr. Fleming has engaged in social science research for over 16 years. She has numerous publications and scholarly presentations. Her current interests involve trauma resolution -- what works and why -- and in particular the human body-mind-spirit's ability to heal itself with visual imagery. The Trauma Resolution Center of North Shore Wellness Services is a Beta site for a new software technology that will track and summarize how trauma is stored and ultimately resolved in the body. Stay tuned and watch what happens...

For more information on trauma resolution and for information about being included in the trauma resolution project at North Shore Wellness Services, please contact Dr. Fleming.
