We could intervene at that upstream level by healing trauma. And that's why I really wanted to mention things like policy, because I just don't think this one-on-one thing that we do is going to fix these bigger system level things.
Imagine a world where trauma recovery isn't just about individual therapy sessions but also addresses the broader societal issues that contribute to trauma. In this eye-opening episode of Complex Trauma Recovery, host Kina Penelope sits down with Dr. Christy Gibson, a family physician from Calgary with a rich background in justice work, medical education, and global health. Dr. Gibson brings a unique perspective to the table, blending her medical expertise with her passion for community resilience and trauma-informed care.
They dive into the systemic challenges that make accessing quality trauma therapy difficult, especially for marginalized communities. Dr. Gibson doesn't shy away from discussing the limitations of traditional clinical approaches and the need for more inclusive, holistic methods of trauma recovery. From recognizing the impact of trauma on collective bodies to exploring the potential of psychedelic therapy, this episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone interested in understanding the bigger picture of trauma and healthcare.
Whether you're struggling with trauma yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find this conversation both enlightening and empowering.
