Relational Trauma: Healing Through Storytelling and EMDR Therapy

Sometimes it can feel like steps forward and back. And so what's important for survivors is to have the opportunity to narrate their story, their own story, as the truth, and this then allows the cognitive dissonance to dissipate...
Ever felt trapped in a cycle of emotional pain from a toxic relationship? Andrea Schneider, a seasoned clinical social worker, dives deep into trauma-informed healing in this episode of 'The Savvy Shrink'. With over two decades of experience, Andrea sheds light on the psychological abuse survivors often endure, such as gaslighting and blame shifting. She emphasizes the power of narrating one's own story to dispel cognitive dissonance and reclaim personal truth.
One standout approach she discusses is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a technique Andrea is currently getting certified in. EMDR helps process traumatic memories, making it easier for survivors to move forward. This episode isn't just about theories; it's packed with practical advice for those dealing with maternal mental health issues, special needs parenting, and grief. Andrea's compassionate guidance and expert insights make this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking to heal from relational trauma.
