I can't like this enough! I'm a masters-level intern in the final semester of my mental health counseling program, and this is what I've been needing for MONTHS. I've learned how to identify PTSD but not at all how to treat it, save for being told "CBT is an evidence based treatment". Like, my client can't sit straight in a chair! How am I supposed to discuss their thoughts and behaviors and expect that to just *magically work*?! THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. This has set me on the right course!

As a current addiction counselor and student working on my Masters in the field I found this video to be very helpful and informative when trying to better understand addressing trauma in my practice and explain in in my studies. Thank you.

You mean there are actually therapists who, after assessing your sense of safety & stabilization and learning that you have neither, don't immediately tell you that they cannot take you on as a client because of those very reasons? As with any profession, I understand that all counsellors have their own level of expertise and yes I am being kind here - but a response like that has the potential to do irreparable damage.
I am a mental health advocate & pro-counseling. I considered myself savvy about what to look for in a competent therapist. But with trauma I didn't know how to suss out one from the other. I had three councillors in a row that did this to me and it was devastating. I'm now making up for lost tim but I sincerely thank you for addressing this issue.

Love your channel! Easy to understand and relatable. Thank you.

I like this. It feels like it’s desensitizing the event while leading up to the event if that makes sense. Glad I found this and I will be following this. Thank you 😊

[kaylangoodman]

Thank you for this. I’m an ACMHC and have no trauma training yet. I will use this to help me with direction in my practice. ♥️

Thank you so much for this informative video. Extremely helpful information. I have to watch it again and again just to soak up all the information. Love that you had a cat by the way. I'm an MSW student and I'm a huge animal lover that has done rescue for decades. Sorry to hear about the passing of your cat and hopefully you will rescue another. ❤❤

I'm a little late but just wanted to say excellent job! This was very helpful!

[angelamarcano]

So glad I found your channel! Thank you Nina for creating such an informative, well-organized video. I am writing a book about someone who is going through group therapy for PTSD and needed to know how this looks and what techniques the therapist uses to help the clients reach their goals.
