Revisiting Childhood Trauma: Andrea Williams on Repressed Memories

The healing begins when we risk moving out of isolation. Feelings and buried memories will return.
Ever wondered how childhood trauma can shape your adult life? In this episode of 'Grace Through Recovery', Andrea Williams, LPC, CPCS, takes you on a journey through the complexities of repressed memories and their impact on adulthood. Drawing from the Adult Children of Alcoholics literature, Andrea shares valuable insights into how growing up in a dysfunctional home can leave lasting scars that often resurface during recovery.
She explains the 14 traits of an adult child of an alcoholic, shedding light on behaviors and feelings that might seem puzzling until you trace them back to their roots. Andrea emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and honoring your feelings, even when specific memories remain elusive. Through open conversations and therapy, she believes we can gradually bring these buried memories to light, allowing us to heal and trust our instincts once again.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of the emotional toll of childhood trauma and a reminder that recovery is possible with the right support and understanding.
