Healing from childhood trauma and neglect has a new soundtrack... Matt Kollock is an alt-indie rocker hailing in New Mexico by way of Wisconsin. His second album ‘Family Plot’ will be released on June 21st, 2024 and is inspired by his dysfunctional childhood. The first part of the album focuses on the trauma and neglect of his childhood as a sheltered, isolated and “too-sensitive” boy. Side two explores the positive transformation the artist has undergone since deciding to “go no contact” with his family of origin. https://mattkollock.com IG - @mattkollock Dear Little Matt Blog Post ⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️ https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chat

SHITSHOW SATURDAY #103 - Coping With Change

Dr. Lara Dye is a psychologist who specializes on treating childhood relational trauma that ultimately results in substance, love and sex addictions. Her treatment approach is focused on understanding how particular childhood traumas cause humans to grow destructive defense mechanisms. Those defenses, while originally a solution to the pain of the childhood situation, ultimately decrease healthy adult relationships. Dr. Dye has extensive post-graduate training in love and sex addiction from the Meadows in Arizona (Pia Mellody) and is a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT). ⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️ https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chatSIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER
