About this episode

It's not unusual for trauma therapy to disrupt some of our patterns and habits, within ourselves, and within our homes and partnerships. In this episode, I talk about what this can look like, and what we can we do to adapt to these changes. You can find more information like this in my latest Trauma Workshop: A Free Mind. Available on my website: www.matthiasjbarker.com.
