In this enlightening conversation, we explore 'trauma identity', a concept that is often formed due to the constant focus on trauma in our society. While acknowledging trauma is a crucial part of the healing process, an overemphasis can bind an individual to their past pain and inhibit growth and recovery.
I’m joined by Dr. Avgi Saketopoulou, a renowned psychoanalyst from New York and a respected faculty member at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis. Dr. Saketopoulou brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective to this enlightening discussion.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- Understanding Trauma Culture
- The Risks of Trauma Identity
- Navigating Trauma without Reinforcing Trauma Identity
