in all honestly, the Ts that i have the most respect for are the ones who fully understand complex trauma, how it effects the body, and know how best to treat those effects with the body centered therapies. unfortunately, there are not enough of them in this industry. i don't have much respect for the Ts who go out to a weekend training course or complete an online course just so they can add the right buzz words to their Psychology Today profile to attract more clients or charge higher fees. i reckon those Ts, along with the ones who haven't fully dealt with their own sh#t, are the ones actually causing the most damage and harm and clients with truama histories should avoid.
from what you shared, you seem to have a good head on your shoulders and the passion to do what you feel is best after your own experiences. because of this, i reckon you already are miles ahead of many of your peers if you were to pursue a career in this industry.
