Trauma in the Body

In this episode of H.O.P.E I dive into my top three takeaways from the book The Body Keeps the Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk. I unpack how the body remembers trauma, the ways trauma reshapes the brain, and practical approaches toward healing. I share these insights through my own lens—as a counselor-in-training and as someone passionate about mental health—so you’ll hear not just theory, but real reflections and encouragement. Whether you’re new to the book or looking for a fresh perspective, this episode offers a gentle, down-to-earth breakdown of complex ideas about trauma and recovery.
