Ep. 33 - Do I Have Trauma?

Throughout my career as a psychotherapist, I’ve worked closely with people healing from trauma. It’s been one of the main focuses of my practice, and in this week’s episode, we’re diving deep into that very topic, asking the question: how much can trauma be treated philosophically? With insights from thinkers like Judith Herman, Peter Levine, Robert Jackman, and David Spiegel, we’ll peel back the many layers of what trauma really is, from its definitions and neuroscience, to its social roots and the ways it reshapes our inner philosophy at its core. Maybe together, we can begin to understand what healing truly looks like after such a world-shattering experience.
