Complex Trauma: Unpacking Childhood Pain and Finding Healing

So it's really important, if you're suffering with childhood trauma or complex trauma, to find a specialist who is not the word trauma in full sort of really being buzzed around in a lot of places at the moment.
Ever wondered how early trauma can shape your entire life? In this episode of 'Soul Sessions', Jodie Gale dives deep into the labyrinth of complex trauma, shedding light on how adverse childhood experiences (ACES) can cast long shadows over adulthood. Jodie, a seasoned psychotherapist and trauma expert, unravels the intricate web of neurobiological development and the somatic and psychic pain that often accompanies complex trauma.
She explores how children, often dealing with parents who have their own unresolved traumas, learn to rely on external cues instead of trusting their inner selves. This can lead to coping mechanisms like disordered eating and other challenges. Jodie emphasizes the crucial role of finding a specialized trauma therapist—someone who is not only trained in complex and developmental trauma but has also undergone long-term depth psychotherapy themselves.
For those in Australia, she notes the scarcity of highly trained psychotherapists in government-funded services, highlighting the need for more accessible resources. The episode also offers a treasure trove of recommended reading on healing from childhood trauma and disordered eating. Plus, Jodie shares details about her upcoming inner child workshops for women and certificate training for therapists. If you're seeking understanding and practical advice on navigating the complexities of trauma, this episode is a must-listen.
