What is the CPTSD Medicine Healing Protocol?

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) recovery involves navigating a path of healing that acknowledges the intricate interplay between traumatic experiences and one's emotional and relational well-being. Tanner Wallace, host of the CPTSD Medicine Podcast, introduces a groundbreaking healing protocol that integrates the Five Circuits of Healing Power and the CPTSD Wheel of Life, offering a transformative approach for those on their healing journey.
