    Understanding Modern Trauma with Dr. Christy Gibson

    Send us a text Beyond the Thyroid – Episode 42: Understanding Modern Trauma with Dr. Christy Gibson In this powerful and compassionate episode of Beyond the Thyroid, Dr. Dana Gibbs is joined by Dr. Christy Gibson, a family physician and trauma therapist, to explore the concept of modern trauma — the cumulative impact of smaller, often invisible wounds that leave people feeling unsafe, unseen, or unheard. Dr. Gibson introduces the idea that trauma isn’t always caused by a single catastrophic event. Instead, it can develop through repeated experiences of dismissal, chronic stress, medical encounters, or societal pressures. Together, Dr. Gibbs and Dr. Gibson discuss how trauma shows up in the nervous system, how it intersects with chronic illness and endocrine dysfunction, and why so many patients feel stuck in “survival mode.” The conversation also explores practical and emerging approaches to healing, including nervous system regulation, body-based practices, affirmations, polyvagal theory, and the evolving role of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy — with an emphasis on safety, context, and informed care. 🩺 Learn more about Dr. Christy Gibson: Website: christinegibson.net Tiktok: @tiktoktraumadoc Facebook: Christine Gibson MD - tiktoktraumadoc Youtube: Dr. Christy Gibson Book: The Modern Trauma Toolkit 📑 Join the The Thyroid Clarity Checkup Priority List!  📲 Follow Dr. Dana Gibbs on the Goodself App! 🩺 Interested in a Discovery Call with Dr. Dana?

    Reversing Osteoporosis with Hormone Therapy

    Send us a text Beyond the Thyroid – Episode 41: Reversing Osteoporosis with Hormone Therapy In this episode of Beyond the Thyroid, Dr. Dana Gibbs takes a deep dive into osteoporosis — and why bone loss is often misunderstood, undertreated, and unnecessarily feared. Rather than focusing solely on prescription bone drugs, Dr. Gibbs explains the critical role hormones play in bone health, including estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and thyroid hormone. Using real patient stories and current science, Dr. Gibbs shows how osteoporosis is not just a calcium problem — it’s a hormonal and metabolic issue. She outlines how thoughtfully applied hormone therapy, combined with proper nutrition, supplements, and strength training, can stabilize or even improve bone density in the right patients. This episode is essential listening if you’ve been told you have osteopenia or osteoporosis, are concerned about fractures, or want alternatives to standard pharmaceutical approaches. 📑 Join the The Thyroid Clarity Checkup Priority List!  📲 Follow Dr. Dana Gibbs on the Goodself App! 🩺 Interested in a Discovery Call with Dr. Dana?
