It is a challenge to work with people who have had chronic developmental trauma. I have watched a lot of podcasts recently given by professionals who work with and support people who have issues related to this... and it was inspiring. There are some very knowledgable people out there who know how to help / support / treat this kind of stuff. I think it takes a specialist in the area to help. It is long, hard, challenging work. But so very, very worth it. If the T knows their stuff I reckon miracles can happen. (Because getting from that trauma place to healing is like a transformational miracle). But I think a t who doesn't know much about the effects and treatment related to chronic developmental trauma can do more harm than good.
