From The Vicarious Trauma and Resilience Podcast · 00:41:44
Show by Dr. Jenny Hughes
Staying present with a client’s trauma means learning to stay present with yourself, too. But what happens when a client’s story activates something in your own body, and how do you remain grounded without shutting down what you’re feeling?Trauma psychologist Dr. Jenny Hughes sits down with Lynn Fraser, founder of the Stillpoint Method of Healing Trauma, to explore how nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, and embodied practices shape the therapeutic relationship. Together, they discuss recognizing signs of activation, building the capacity to stay with difficult emotions, and creating the conditions for safety and connection. Because being a regulated therapist isn’t about being perfect. It’s about learning how to return to the present.Resources & ConnectionsJoin the BRAVE Trauma Therapists Collective: https://www.braveproviders.com/braveLearn more about BRAVE: https://www.braveproviders.comConnect with Lynn Fraser: https://LynnFraserStillpoint.com
