Defining Trauma: A Conversation with Dr. Kevin Gilliland and Katie Hoag

A traumatic event is that it is so much happening in a very short amount of time, and it can be challenging if we don't have those healthy things in place- not just a healthy community and a mind that knows how to develop and use psychological tools, but also- I know what I do- to help.
What exactly is trauma, and how does it shape our mental health? Dr. Kevin Gilliland, a seasoned expert in mental health and addiction, sits down with colleague Katie Hoag to untangle this complex topic. In this episode of 'Struggle Well. Live Well. Worry Less.', they dive into what trauma truly means, debunking common myths along the way. Dr. Gilliland emphasizes that trauma isn't just about the event itself but also how we process and react to it.
This perspective helps listeners understand that trauma can have varied and lasting impacts on one's mental well-being. Katie Hoag adds her insights, making the conversation rich with practical advice and relatable examples. They also discuss healthy coping mechanisms, the importance of community support, and the psychological tools that aid in recovery. Whether you're dealing with trauma yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable takeaways to help you navigate the path to healing.
