When working with trauma survivors, there was a complex case — something so terrible that it stayed with me. I worked with someone in their 60s who had lived with trauma symptoms for decades.
It was heartbreaking that they hadn’t received any help up until that point.
"When you work with trauma survivors, there’s an unspoken understanding — a depth in the relationship. It’s about being able to be a safe place for people who have historically been harmed by other people."
