do you have any freebies on trauma for me?
For as long as I can remember, my calling has been to heal trauma. From confronting generational curses within my own family to working with children globally whose childhoods were marred by trauma. I've served adults ranging from 99 years old who have bravely faced and shared their pain, to individuals in both inpatient and outpatient settings grappling with thoughts of suicide and self-harm stemming from the disruptive impact of trauma.
what is your experience in working with trauma?
I'm no stranger to trauma and understand the struggles and weight it carries. I know the exhaustion of being perceived as the "strong, resilient one."
