Dr. Claudia Black on Childhood Trauma's Lasting Impact on Young Adults

Nobody deserves to live with the fear and shame that so many of us live with, and that we deserve to live with far greater choices in our life versus the script.
What happens when childhood trauma follows young adults into their future? In this episode of 'Beyond Theory', Dr. Claudia Black, the clinical architect of The Claudia Black Center, delves into this critical issue. With over four decades of experience, Dr. Black discusses how trauma experienced during childhood can lead to behavioral issues, substance abuse, and mental health challenges in young adulthood.
She also explores how the digital age, particularly social media, can amplify these struggles, making young people feel isolated or inadequate. However, Dr. Black clarifies that social media isn't the main reason young adults seek treatment at the CBC. Instead, gaming addiction is a significant factor, often proving as destructive as substance abuse. Dr. Black emphasizes the importance of early intervention and autonomy for young adults, advocating for a life free from fear and shame.
Key takeaways include seeking help at the first sign of trouble, understanding the critical role of autonomy in a young person's life, and recognizing the severe risks associated with substance and gaming addictions. Dr. Black's insights offer a compassionate and informative look into the complexities of trauma and recovery. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of these pressing issues.
