From Surviving to Striving to Thriving!

Settle in and watch my podcast which I shared with Leah Morgan of Still We Rise Coaching as part of the online Learning Retreat for Grief & Trauma this weekend gone.


In this, you will hear about:


·      What trauma means to me, on a personal and professional level

 

·      How I have used my lived experiences of personal trauma to bring me from surviving to striving to thriving


·      How I came to work in the trauma field of trauma resolution

 

·      What my present field of work is in relation to trauma


·      What is Trauma Discharge Therapy (TDT) and how can it help you


·      Why TDT is an effective therapy for trauma recovery


·      Why trauma is so significant now and how can we support ourselves from its ill effects.
