    Trauma Healing Explained: Bessel van der Kolk vs George Bonanno

    Trauma is one of the most talked-about and most misunderstood topics in mental health culture.  In this episode of Psychobabble, Joe Nucci unpacks two very different books on trauma: Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score and George Bonanno’s The End of Trauma. Although both books offer powerful insights into how we process painful experiences, they don’t always agree. One emphasizes the body and stored trauma, while the other highlights resilience and recovery. So which one is right? Watch for the answer. #TheBodyKeepsTheScore #TraumaHealing #MentalHealth #Psychology #Resilience #SomaticTherapy #PTSDRecovery #Psychobabble Order: Psychobabble Hosted on Acast.
