Description: As we enter a new year, a time when self-improvement is on everyone's mind, it's crucial to address how trauma can affect our efforts toward personal growth. We'll define the overused term "trauma," distinguish between 'big T' and 'little T' traumas, and explore their impacts on mental health. Join us in understanding the emotional responses to significant events and how early intervention can mitigate long-term consequences. Discover how trauma manifests in behavior and how to recognize and process it. We'll discuss therapeutic approaches, the importance of hope in healing, and the balance between medication and psychotherapy.
