PTSD symptoms can be viewed as the brain's way to keep the person safe... Once their functions are understood, then the person can set out to identify alternate, less disruptive or problematic behaviors to achieve the same goal.
PTSD can be a daunting condition, but what if we could see its symptoms as the brain's way of protecting us? In this episode of the Counselor Toolbox Podcast, Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes invites listeners to rethink PTSD through a strengths-based lens. She explains how understanding the survival functions behind PTSD symptoms can lead to healthier, less disruptive coping mechanisms. Dr. Snipes delves into the grief process associated with trauma and underscores the importance of creating safe spaces for healing.
Her insights are not just theoretical; she offers practical counseling tools to help mental health practitioners support their clients in managing PTSD symptoms, reducing startle responses, and reshaping personal beliefs. By the end of this episode, you'll gain a new perspective on PTSD and valuable strategies to enhance the quality of life for those affected by it.
