The conventional treatment goals for people with trauma, anxiety and depression are to provide medications to minimize symptoms and coping strategies to reduce the impact of potentially crippling conditions. But what if this approach not only doesn't help but is actually the complete opposite of what needs to be done to restore normalcy??

Dr Bob Moore is a vastly experienced therapist and educator in the areas of trauma and in this episode he explains how to actually cure anxiety and trauma rather than simply mollify it. Using an understanding of learning and neurology Dr. Bob explains how trauma and anxiety can be effectively treated and removed for good.
