Explore the concept of trauma and its treatment. Host Amy and Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) Natelle Murphy discuss the limitations of traditional top-down therapy approaches, which focus primarily on cognitive processes.
The episode introduces the bottom-up approach, which emphasizes the body's role in trauma and recovery. Key points include:
- Trauma is more than an event: It's a complex interplay of event, reaction, and societal perception.
- Traditional therapy: Often focuses on talk therapy and cognitive-based techniques like prolonged exposure therapy.
- Bottom-up approach: Emphasizes the body's role in trauma, focusing on physical sensations and responses.
- Polyvagal theory: Explains the nervous system's three states (ventral, sympathetic, dorsal) and the importance of regulation.
- Somatic experiencing: A therapy that helps individuals engage with trauma through body awareness and movement.
The episode concludes by highlighting the importance of body awareness and regulation for healing from trauma.
Natelle is committed to cultivating a nurturing space where you can freely express your authentic self, knowing you will be met with profound compassion and unwavering respect. She believes that you are the expert in your own experience, which means that the therapeutic process is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you want to address painful struggles or find ways to improve your quality of life, Natelle would be deeply honoured to work alongside you to find growth and healing on your own terms.
Natelle’s professional experience has empowered her to address anxiety, mood disorders, and rumination. She is passionate about prenatal, postpartum, and familial health; she’s here to support your journey to peace amidst these challenges.
