On today's episode, Dylan sits down with Rachel Sellers, a Master's level therapist with a heart for trauma work and eating disorder recovery. In their conversation, Rachel discusses what trauma is and how all people process trauma differently. Rachel dives into why eating disorders are a common way of coping with trauma and how to begin the hard work of overcoming an eating disorder while also navigating trauma work. Rachel is an expert on how trauma impacts our brain and our body and talks to us about how it's important to take a "bottom up" approach in trauma therapy.
