How does trauma affect memory? What biochemical changes occur in the brain following a traumatic event? Today we talk with MaryCatherine McDonald, PHD about her book “Unbroken: The Trauma Response is Never Wrong.” She also presents some tools for managing extreme stress and anxiety. We further discuss how the dogma around religion and psychology have become so intertwined  Even diagnosis and identity often seem to occupy the same mental space.
