    How Trauma Changes Meaning & How Cognitive Processing Therapy Helps

    Content note: This episode discusses trauma and PTSD. Listener discretion advised. For many people, trauma isn’t about remembering too much. It’s about believing the wrong things about themselves for too long. In this episode of And How Does That Make You Feel?, I sit down with Dr. Patricia Resick, the psychologist who created Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): One of the most effective, evidence-based treatments for PTSD used across the globe today. In this conversation, we explore: * How CPT was developed and why it was needed * Why trauma isn’t just about fear but often about meaning, responsibility, and self-judgment * The difference between thoughts, feelings, and facts (and why that distinction matters) * How CPT helps people heal without reliving the event * Why trauma recovery is possible even years or decades later Chapters: 00:00 Why Therapy Doesn’t Have to Mean Retelling Trauma Forever 02:55 Introducing Dr. Patricia Resick & Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) 05:11 From Clinician to Researcher: Dr. Resick’s Path Into Trauma Psychology 11:00 How Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) Was Born 15:25 Why PTSD Isn’t Just Fear: Shame, Guilt & Self-Blame 17:51 Flashbacks, “Why Me?”, and the Just World Belief 21:25 Erroneous Guilt: When Trauma Blames The Wrong Person 23:27 Trauma Responses People Mistake as Personal Failure 24:52 The Biggest Problem With PTSD 26:03 What CPT Actually Looks Like in Practice 27:45 Thoughts vs Feelings vs Facts (and Why It Changes Everything) 31:35 How CPT Changes the Brain & Nervous System 34:03 Why CPT Leads to Long-Term Relief (Not Just Coping) 38:10 Self-Help, Short-Term Therapy & Accessibility 39:36 How CPT Compares to Other Trauma Therapies 42:02 CPT as a Lifelong Tool, Not Just a Treatment 45:32 Who CPT Is (and Isn’t) For 48:59 CPT, Systemic Trauma & Oppression 52:30 Common Myths About PTSD & Trauma Recovery 58:59 Final Message: You Can Get Better 1:01:15 Closing Reflection & Listener Question _______________________ As an Amazon Associate, I may earn from qualifying purchases.

    Original Grief: Tracing the First Wound with Dr. Sophia Caudle

    Some grief is loud. The kind marked by goodbyes, tears, and endings. But other grief hides quietly beneath the surface: the ache of unmet needs, of love that never arrived, of moments that shaped us before we even knew what loss was. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sophia Caudle, founder of The Original Grief, a deep healing framework that explores how our earliest experiences with caregivers shape the way we love, cope, and connect. Dr. Caudle awakens up to this first loss and how uncovering these early wounds allows us to create space for genuine connection, lasting joy, and deeper peace. _______________________ ▶ Connect with Dr. Sophia Caudle:Website: https://queencityhealthysexandrelationships.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sessionswithdrsophia/ _______________________ ▶ Guest Resources: Work with Dr. Sophia | Original Grief Workshop: https://be8c-sophia.systeme.io/original-grief-workshop Work with Dr. Sophia | Original Grief Intensive: https://queencityhealthysexandrelationships.com/original-grief-intensive/ Guest Workshops | Dr. Sophia's Healing Shop: https://be8c-sophia.systeme.io/healing-shop Guest Podcast | Queen City Healthy Sex and Relationships: http://bit.ly/43qI209 _______________________ ▶ To become a sponsor of the AHDTMYF? podcast or for business inquiries, email business@storidaniel.com ▶Use hashtag #AHDTMYF on all social media channels to join the conversation! ▶ Connect with Stori & the AHDTMYF Community:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@storileeannInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ahdtmyf

    The Power of Play: How Play Therapy Helps Kids Heal & Communicate

    Play therapy gives kids a voice when words fall short. In this episode, I’m joined by licensed counselor, play therapist, and drama therapist Katie Lear to explore how play helps children heal and communicate, and, how parents can use PRIDE skills at home with everyday play like drawing, dolls, or blocks. We also dive into how role-play can be a powerful therapeutic tool not only for kids, but also for teens and adults: whether it’s helping neurodivergent individuals practice social cues, or supporting someone in exploring new behaviors and inner strengths through imaginative characters. This episode is practical, playful, and deeply human, offering tools for parents, caregivers, and anyone curious about how creativity can open new doors for healing and connection.
