Explore the complexities of brain development in the shadow of trauma in our newest episode of 'Among Therapists: Practical Tips.' Discover how unresolved trauma during the crucial stages of brain development leads to behavioral and emotional challenges. Join us as we examine the principles of brain development and their impact on trauma survivors. Learn about the sequential development of the survival, emotion, attachment, and cognition brains and how each stage is foundational for the next. Understand the effects of an overdeveloped survival brain in a trauma-laden environment, leading to altered emotional responses, attachment issues, and cognitive distortions.   Faculty: Kirby Reutter, Ph.D. Host: Jessica Díaz, M.D. Script Editor: Anderson García, Ph.D.
