One of the traps of trauma is its effect on our sense of time. It has us constantly reliving a past experience as if it were in the present. Treating trauma with traditional trauma therapy doesn't always help a patient heal PTSD. The reason is that the story about their past trauma isn't always the source of pain. The present symptoms cause distress, and learning to change how our being manages these symptoms can finally bring relief. Listen as Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world's leading experts, shares ways that we can help patients escape the trap of trauma.
