Welcome to Where Is My Mind? A podcast about how we can better look after our heads and our hearts in the head-melty chaos of the modern world.
We often talk about trauma on this podcast but this week we’re looking at it from a different angle and exploring developmental trauma, what it looks like and the different approaches to healing.
Niall is joined by Dr. Stephen Terrell, psychotherapist and specialist in Developmental Trauma, Attachment and Adoption. It was in his experience as a clinician and single parent of two adopted sons that Stephen realised there needed to be a way to reach non-verbal, or early developmental trauma, without spoken language. He developed ‘Transforming Touch®’ and ‘Transforming the Experience-Based Brain: A Regulation-Based Approach to Working Developmental Trauma’. Niall and Stephen also discuss the impact of generational and collective trauma, the importance of presence in trauma therapy and both have some stuff come up for them in an incredibly vulnerable and powerful conversation. Take care when listening.
