If you’ve scrolled through Instagram or TikTok even for just a few minutes you’ll notice that there’s a ton of information about trauma. 

Trauma is one of these terms that’s getting loads of attention lately. Which is not entirely a bad thing, as it means that more of us are becoming attuned to its effects. 

However, it’s also a term that’s widely misunderstood. 

In this YouTube episode, trauma therapist Andrew Davis LMFT and I are discussing what trauma is and its effects on mental health.

‣ What trauma is 

‣ How to know something was a difficult life experience or a trauma
