So many of my guests on The Trauma Therapist | Podcast have said, in one way or another, that It's Not What You Know. It's Who You Are.   I love that! It inspires me!   And I think it's taken me some time to truly live that and to own that.   I'm planning a live, online, 10-Day training/workshop/experience for new trauma therapists called The Heart-Centered Therapist.   Learn more here: http://bit.ly/2tvQrhv   This is also for anyone in the helping professions: therapists, social workers, counselors, coaches etc.   The Heart-Centered Therapist, live, 10-Day training/workshop is about uncovering and honoring the unique and incredible person that you are, and learning to bring that to the work you do.   Who you are--your story, your experiences, and the degree to which you either shove them down and run from them, or own and honor them, impacts and influences your work with those who've been impacted by trauma.   Join me for a 10-Day, online training/workshop/e

Kimberly Rezarch M.S.W. is a survivor of severe childhood trauma and forced psychiatry. Over the course of 20 years in the mental health system, Kimberly was given 25 different mental health diagnoses and prescribed 11 medications to be taken simultaneously. It wasn’t until her psychiatrist became trauma-informed, that her life was saved with a new diagnosis, Dissociative Identity Disorder. This diagnosis indicated the severity of her trauma, but also provided the answers she was searching for. During her recovery journey, she developed the Trauma Motivated Outcomes Theory, which recognizes trauma as the motivation behind behaviors. Kimberly also sees that responses to trauma accumulate over time, mimicking mental illness and developing into Trauma Response Syndrome. Kimberly created the Trauma Response Syndrome Model to assist in the recovery from Trauma Response Syndrome. Kimberly wants to bring hope to those who suffer from trauma and provide new tools for mental health professionals.Support this podcast a

Stephen is a long time NJ resident who has been given the gift of many experiences in life. For most of his adult life, he served as Paramedic for 15+ years in many jurisdictions in NJ, PA, and DE. He also had the honor of serving as a rescue worker at the World Trade Center on 9-11-01 in NYC. Stephen has seen tragedy and suffering first hand. While saving countless overdose victims in his career, he always felt a pang of sadness when his colleagues would treat a hurting person poorly due to their ignorance of the problem. Little did they know that he soon would be no different than many of his patients and that he was the one who needed the saving. It took him overdosing multiple times and having been revived by former colleagues, losing his certification, career, marriage, and children to finally stop Stephen from working towards his grave and start working a recovery program. His focus is to open up the conversation about addressing the underlying pain, trauma, or lack of coping skills that makes one decid
