    Emotional Regulation Between Partners

    Emotions often hold good or bad connotations, but it isn't the feelings themselves that are the problem, rather the things we do to avoid or erase the ones that are scary or bewildering. Today’s episode explores the topic of Emotional Regulation, and Dr Heather B. MacIntosh is joined by George and River who share how they have learned to regulate themselves and each other when trauma cycles threaten to repeat. They discuss building in space between feelings and reactions, physical changes they can make when dysregulation begins, and the complexities with diagnoses of PTSD, Complex PTSD, and Borderline Personality Disorder. Dr. MacIntosh's workbook for trauma survivor couples is published by Routledge Press and can be purchased at Amazon.ca or you can get in touch at healingbrokenbonds.socialwork@mcgill.ca.

    The Impacts of Trauma in a Romantic Relationship

    How can we know who we are and what matters to us if we can't even feel our feelings, and feel safe in our bodies? In this first episode Dr Heather B. MacIntosh is joined by Sofia and Cece to look at how their individual traumas show up in their relationship, and Heather tells how these behaviors or patterns are shared by many trauma survivor couples. The group explores ‘naming the trauma’ as a concept, setting and resetting boundaries with family, and how neurodivergence can add complexity to trauma responses. Dr. MacIntosh's workbook for trauma survivor couples is published by Routledge Press and can be purchased at Amazon.ca or you can get in touch at healingbrokenbonds.socialwork@mcgill.ca.
