A Return to Wholeness with Dr. Gabor Maté – Introduction: Viewing Trauma as a Wound

Welcome to A Return to Wholeness with Dr. Gabor Maté. In this introduction to the program, Dr. Maté explains that trauma is not the event that caused the psychological wound; it is the wound itself. Like a wound, that aspect of yourself might be incredibly sensitive when touched — or it may be scarred and thus is a place where you can be rigid and withdrawn. But the good news is that wounds, no matter how old, can heal in the present.
