“We need to give ourselves permission to be sad about what we lost, be sad about what we experienced, have self compassion for what we’ve gone through– and recognize what won’t be the same again.” – Terri Cole
Intro
TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains information about (gun) violence which may be triggering to survivors.
Do you think something good can come from a traumatic experience?
Or do you feel like awful things simply happen to us, and nothing productive comes from them?
I explore these questions in today’s episode on post-traumatic growth. I talk about the potential for positive experiences after traumatic events, and I share what I have witnessed as a psychotherapist and in the aftermath of my own traumatic experiences.
Highlights:
- 03:00 How I encountered post-traumatic growth in my practice
- 13:10 Seeking post-traumatic growth
- 15:15 Give yourself permission to breathe after trauma
- 17:40 Solidify your growth by writing your story
