    • Spirituality

On today’s episode of the Soul Connection Duo Podcast, we bring on Dr. Gillian O’Shea Brown for a psychospiritual perspective on trauma and healing. Dr. O’Shea Brown is a complex trauma psychotherapist, book author, and adjunct professor of trauma studies at NYU. Dr. O'Shea Brown strives to provide her clients with the best possible psychological care through understanding individuals in the context of their own unique culture, values and life experiences.

Dr. O’Shea Brown shares her vast knowledge with us on the topic of complex trauma. She describes the differences between Complex-PTSD vs. PTSD, as well as some of the evidence-based, successful modalities used for symptom reduction in trauma, such as EMDR and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT). Sydney discusses some of the clinical manifestations she’s experienced from her own trauma with Dr. O’Shea Brown, to provide listeners with a narrative perspective on healing. We touch on other topics related to trauma such as ritualistic compulsive comfort seeking, post-traumatic growth, and Alexa shares the beautiful experience of spiritual awakening and the formation of true friendships through times of hardship. 

Dr. O'Shea Brown uses many different modalities in her practice which include:  EMDR, IFS, TF-CBT, Advanced Breathwork Techniques, Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy. She is author of her book, “Healing Complex Posttraumatic Stress Disorder”, and offers trauma informed workshops, a complex trauma course, and clinical services, which can all be found on her website - www.drgillianosheabrown.com. She also shares more information and techniques for healing trauma on her social media accounts @drgillianosheabrown (⁠Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, ⁠TikTok) and @drosheabrown on Twitter.

“With trauma, there is a version of you before and there is a version of you after. And you kind of feel like a part of you died, but there can be a renaissance of rebirth, where from the ashes of all that, you reconstruct yourself.” ~Dr. Gillian O'Shea Brown
