DEPTH Work: A Holistic Mental Health Podcast

08. Healing Childhood Sexual Abuse & Complex Trauma

Listen Later

Healing from childhood sexual abuse is far more complex than healing somatically. Often we must confront challenging family dynamics, betrayal, attachment wounds, abandonment, rage, grief, self-blame, guilt, and so much more. In this episode, I talk about the biggest lessons I've learned in healing from childhood trauma. 

You’ll learn:

  • The complexities around childhood sexual abuse and attachment issues
  • Why so many childhood abuse survivors find themselves isolated and without familial support
  • Why acknowledging betrayal trauma is a key part of the healing process
  • How trauma impacts and gets stored in the body
  • How self-trust and personal power can be developed through trauma
