How Do I Heal From Trauma?

The million dollar question our clients ask when it comes to trauma is: “How do I heal?” 

In this episode, Austin, Lynn, and John continue their series, Surviving and Thriving After Trauma, with a deep dive into the key elements needed for healing.

Trauma is any experience that overwhelms your ability to cope on your own and can stem from events like divorce, abuse, sexual assault, domestic violence, health crises, betrayal and more. However, it’s not just the event itself that is disruptive, but the lingering emotional and mental impact that makes healing difficult.

In this episode we cover key elements needed for healing:

• Ongoing Safety
• Self-Regulation skills
• Connecting with safe people
• Giving voice to your trauma
• Dismantling false narratives 
• Engaging with your story in light of God’s love and truth

Although each person’s journey is unique, growth and recovery are possible with the right resources and a supportive community. This episode will guide you through how and why healing from trauma is possible, and provide the insight you need to move towards healing and hope.
