Kathryn Greenberg: Healing Trauma with Mindfulness and Hope

I'm asking you to please understand what trauma is, what trauma informed languages, what trauma informed care looks like, and to understand a complete definition of trauma and how it affects everybody.
Kathryn Greenberg's journey is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. In this episode of 'Ruthless Compassion with Dr. Marcia Sirota', Kathryn, a Certified Life Coach specializing in mindfulness, trauma, and addiction, opens up about her personal healing journey. Growing up in Washington, D.C., Kathryn faced her own battles with addiction and self-harm, eventually leading to a severe eating disorder.
Her move to Sarasota, Florida, marked a turning point as she found a community that resonated with her values and supported her path to recovery. Kathryn's unique approach to healing is deeply informed by her work in challenging environments like jails, courts, homeless shelters, and treatment centers. She believes that even in the darkest circumstances, individuals possess an inner strength that can be unlocked through mindfulness and compassion.
Her philosophy revolves around being present and working with reality as it is, rather than wishing for something different. Throughout the episode, Kathryn emphasizes the importance of trauma-informed care and language. She discusses how understanding the full scope of trauma can help break down judgments and foster empathy. Kathryn also shares insights on adolescent mental health, particularly the complexities of working with young females who have experienced trauma.

She advocates for creating a reality that one doesn't want to escape from and making conscious choices towards positive change. The episode concludes with a powerful reminder to listen more and talk less, making space for the 'sad stuff' and understanding that healing is a continuous journey.
For those interested in trauma recovery and mindfulness-based therapy, Kathryn's story offers valuable lessons and encouragement. Tune in to hear how she's helping others find their way out of the darkness and into a life filled with hope.
