001: My Story of Grief and Trauma with Dr Z-- Part 1

Welcome to Phoenix Rising with Dr. Z“. This podcast we have conversations to help demystify and shed light on the process of grief. I’m your host Dr Christina Zampitella (aka Dr. Z)- I am the founder of the Center For Grief and Trauma Therapy in Wilmington Delaware. a Dr of Clinical Psychology, and a Fellow of Thanatology, with the Association for Death Education and Counseling.  I am also a survivor of grief and trauma, so my perspective on these topics is very personal, and from experience. On today's podcast, I will be sharing the first part of my story with all of you. __________ About Phoenix Rising In life, we so often avoid the complex and personal expression of grief. The avoidance makes it difficult to explore and share our grief in our everyday lives. Yet, it is a natural and universal human experience. In Phoenix Rising with Dr. Z, we will be deconstructing and highlighting the different aspects of grief and loss. __________ If you found this podcast helpful please share it, subscribe,  and leave a rating or review wherever you get your podcasts. We want to be a resource for anyone who is experiencing loss and this is a simple way you can help us spread the word.
