Marta Iglesias: Unpacking Trauma Incident Reduction and Its Impact

After every challenge we develop a new strength. But remember that after every experience that you go through there is something, there is a strength that you will develop.
What happens when a dedicated mental health counselor meets an innovative trauma technique? You get a conversation that's both enlightening and deeply human. In this episode of the 'Trauma Informed Podcast', Jeff Friedman sits down with Marta Iglesias, a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern from Miami, Florida. Marta introduces listeners to Trauma Incident Reduction (TIR), a method designed to help individuals process and resolve traumatic experiences.
But that's not all; Marta also delves into the importance of cultural diversity in therapy, shedding light on how different backgrounds can influence the healing journey. Marta's work extends beyond the traditional office setting, as she shares her experiences with in-home counseling. These personal stories bring to life the challenges and rewards of working directly in clients' environments. She also touches on the mental health impacts of COVID-19, offering insights into how the pandemic has reshaped therapy and client needs.
A significant part of their discussion revolves around self-care for therapists. Marta emphasizes that those who help others must also look after their own well-being. She offers practical tips and personal anecdotes that make this advice relatable and actionable. Throughout the episode, Marta encourages connecting with other trauma professionals and survivors to share stories and advocate for mental health awareness.
In a world where trauma is often a silent burden, this episode serves as a reminder that strength can be found in every experience. Whether you're a mental health professional, someone who's experienced trauma, or simply interested in innovative therapeutic methods, this conversation is bound to resonate with you.
