Overcoming Trauma- "Surviving & Thriving"
Episode description
Podcast Show Notes
Series 7 Episode 5
Guest: Dr Yvonne Waft
In this episode I talk to Clinical Psychologist, Dr Yvonne Waft, about Trauma.
In her work Yvonne aims to challenge the notion that "Trauma" is untreatable and a lifelong condition. Highly effective treatments are available and no matter how severe the trauma you have been through, life can get better, and you may even thrive again.
We cover:
· Yvonne’s journey into psychology through my own experiences of trauma
· Focusing on trauma as a field of clinical expertise.
· How Yvonne’s lived experience informs her work as a psychologist.
· Preconceptions about treating trauma.
· Going from surviving to thriving.
· The importance of self-compassion.
