Trauma Doesn’t Define You
Send us a text
Healing from trauma requires understanding its profound impact on both mind and body. Licensed mental health clinician Alyssa reveals how trauma goes far beyond the conventional definition of near-death experiences or severe abuse. "Trauma can be anything that impedes your progress, anything that prevents you from functioning in the best possible way," she explains, helping listeners recognize how past experiences might be affecting their present lives.
Alyssa shares her personal journey through trauma healing after experiencing domestic violence and sexual abuse, navigating from substance use and depression to finding a comprehensive healing path that addressed mental, spiritual, and physiological aspects of her trauma.
What makes this episode particularly valuable is the exploration of various healing modalities. From evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and somatic work to alternative practices including sound healing, light therapy, and plant medicine, listeners gain insight into the multi-faceted nature of trauma recovery. Alyssa emphasizes that complete healing is possible with commitment and appropriate support: "You can change that, it's possible. If you do the work, you will be able to change how you feel and how you experience life."
