QUOTES

“Neurobiologically speaking, trauma has a detrimental impact to the central nervous system, such that it dysregulates it. People experience a variety of things—people can experience anxiety, people can experience depression, people can experience sleepiness or mood disorders; a variety of symptoms.”

“There are a lot of other symptoms that can manifest and that often go undiagnosed because people don’t think they have been traumatized.”

“When you’re working with a kid who is 11, 12, 13, they don’t care where you’ve gone to school. They don’t care how many degrees that you have. They care if you’re authentic. They care, and they will know, if you’re able to handle the shit that they have gone through. And you won’t be able to do that unless you have done your own work.”
