#48- Trauma Healing and Recovery (with April Haggart)
In this week’s episode, we are joined by Certified Trauma Recovery Coach, April Haggart. Trauma Recovery Coaches “work with trauma survivors as peers, mentors, guides and educators with the goal of helping their clients understand the recovery process, reconnect with themselves and the world while using their strengths to build a life they love living” (International Association of Trauma Recovery Coaching). As a multiple trauma survivor, April shares and uses her own experiences with trauma to raise awareness and to help others along their healing journey. In this conversation, we discuss the evolution of mental health stigma and services, as well as the field of trauma as a whole. As our knowledge and understanding of trauma are increasing, more services and professions are being developed to help treat survivors in progressive, sustainable ways. We also talk about how technology and social media are related to bullying and further, how bullying is connected to trauma. Trigger warning: assault, sexual harassment, and trauma are talked about in this episode.
