By sharing their experiences and those of their clients, they aim to make the often ambiguous process of healing more tangible. Join them as they break down the three key steps: sharing the experience, having a corrective experience, and releasing what no longer serves. This episode offers practical insights and compassionate guidance for anyone on a journey to heal from trauma.
