Healing Trauma: Practical Steps for Families

So the therapeutic part of it is to unlock yourself, unlock your central nervous system, so that you then get to have more choices.
Ever wondered how to break free from the grip of trauma that haunts families dealing with addiction? In this episode of 'Coming Up for Air', hosts Dominique Simone-Levine, Laurie Mcdougall, Annie Highwater, and Kayla Solomon get to the heart of the matter. They explore how trauma affects the brain and share therapeutic techniques that can help release it without dredging up painful memories.
You'll hear about brain spotting, EMDR, and somatic experiencing—methods that offer a way to process trauma more gently. The hosts also talk about the importance of planning for triggers and practicing new skills in advance. They emphasize crafting a life plan with AlliesinRecovery.net, which provides expert guidance and specialized blogs on treatment options. This episode isn't just about understanding trauma; it's about giving families the tools they need to move forward with hope and resilience.
