Why do certain behaviors persist even when they're harmful? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes sheds light on the profound effects of trauma and the importance of creating sanctuary to break unhelpful cycles. From the workplace to personal relationships, trauma's shadow can loom large, often influencing how individuals cope with stress and emotional upheaval. Dr.
Snipes dives into how historical trauma and chronic workplace stress can create environments that feel unsafe, leading to negative coping mechanisms like addiction and borderline behaviors. She also highlights the crucial role of attachment in trauma and how it shapes emotional regulation. To counter these effects, Dr. Snipes emphasizes the need for organizations to foster safe spaces where individuals can develop skills to manage problems and anticipate future challenges effectively.
