The clinical thinking behind a fully-booked trauma psychologist.
step inside my brain
Obsessed with root causes. Scary committed to getting it right.
And absolutely certain that knowing more about trauma does not automatically mean understanding yourself better.
Sorry to say it (am I, though?), but a lot of trauma content online is wildly oversimplified.
Possibilities get presented as facts. Complicated problems get neat little explanations. Behaviour gets labelled a trauma response without anyone stopping to ask “hmm, what else could explain that?”
And you’re left with seventeen plausible theories about yourself and no clear way to work out which one actually applies.
Messy. Confusing as hell. Very counterproductive when you’re trying to work out how to help yourself.
My mission: give you my brain.
We’ll look at the explanations that can seem identical on the surface and pull apart what actually distinguishes them.
So you can think more clearly about trauma, your reactions, your relationships, and understand what genuinely needs your attention.
Less “am I triggered, or reasonably upset?”, “ is this avoidance, or healthy boundary?”
More “oooooh, I get it now!”
