Dr. Nicole Dolan, a depth psychologist and recognized expert in trauma-informed, integrative mental health, has signed with CMP Agent Alan Morell for representation of her book 'The Art of Chaos' and associated commercial rights. The agreement covers literary works, including a planned sequel, broadcast adaptations, speaking engagements, endorsements, advisory roles, and the licensing of her Sacred Path Holistic Therapy model to wellness centers. This partnership aims to scale Dr. Dolan's frameworks, which reframe life's disruptions as catalysts for psychological integration, across multiple platforms.
Dr. Dolan's work, detailed on her website www.drnicoledolan.com, operates at the intersection of trauma studies, nervous system science, and depth psychology. She approaches symptoms not as pathology but as signals pointing toward unmet needs and disowned aspects of the self. Her forthcoming memoir, 'The Art of Chaos,' is rooted in both personal and clinical experience, exploring how experiences often minimized or pathologized can instead serve as pathways to truth and wholeness. Dr. Dolan emphasizes that chaos should be reframed not as something to escape but as an intelligent signal inviting deeper listening at the nervous system, psyche, and soul levels.
The commercial strategy extends beyond the book to her clinical model. Dr. Dolan is the founder of Sacred Path Holistic Therapy, a multi-state nonprofit collective of over 30 clinicians providing integrative, trauma-informed psychotherapy. Through Sacred Path Holistic Therapy, she has developed practical, scalable care models that translate depth psychology into contemporary mental health settings. The licensing of this model to wellness centers worldwide represents a key component of the CMP agreement, potentially standardizing these integrative approaches in broader wellness ecosystems.
For business and technology leaders, this development signals the growing commercialization and mainstreaming of holistic, neuroscience-informed mental health frameworks. CMP's role as a management company with a roster of over 200 doctors across various disciplines positions it to amplify Dr. Dolan's message through publishing, media, and corporate partnerships. Agent Alan Morell stated that CMP will be bidding 'The Art of Chaos' out to publishers with the goal of positioning it as a bestseller, leveraging the agency's experience in managing award-winning literary works.
The implications for the mental health and wellness industries are substantial. By licensing the Sacred Path model, Dr. Dolan's trauma-informed, integrative approach could become more accessible in wellness centers globally, influencing care standards. For leaders, the broader dissemination of these frameworks underscores a shift toward mental health strategies that prioritize nervous system stabilization and psychological integration over symptom management alone, potentially impacting workplace wellness programs and leadership development.
