Navigating Traumatic Grief: What is Traumatic Grief with Dr. Kate Truitt

Описание: In this video, Dr. Kate Truitt begins by explaining that we will explore what makes traumatic grief specifically unique. Grief is hard. When we experience grief it can be uncomfortable; we need to expect that and hold space for the mind body healing process.

Traumatic grief usually occurs after acute loss. It has different trauma symptoms that accompany grieving symptoms. It can also result in Prolonged Grief Disorder. Prolonged Grief Disorder is where the grieving process continues to extend without softening. The grief process tends to soften over time, and eventually we normalize.

In traumatic grief, we have those trauma symptoms: change in physiology; difficulty with sleep; and panic, withdrawal, or depression. The trauma and grief combine into a dark pit of pain. We feel high levels of anger or rage and intense responsibility or guilt. It might fundamentally change parts of your life.

The overlay of trauma with grief makes things much more complicated. We can help the brain heal through the traumatic part of the grieving process. Grief is a journey.

We can help the brain heal through the trauma, release those traumatic encodings, release those emotions that cause a lot of pain, and empower the grief and loss recovery journey.
