Unpacking the Hidden Impact of Trauma

Language of Love with Dr. Laura Berman

We’ve all been there—life throws us a curveball, and we’re left dealing with trauma. And as much as we’d love just to hit the "ignore" button, trauma has this sneaky way of creeping into our relationships.

In this Language of Love Bite, I dive into the deep end of trauma. We're talking all kinds here—sexual, physical, emotional, rejection, humiliation, abandonment, and betrayal trauma. It's a lot, I know, but recognizing these traumas is the first step to healing.

Here is what we explore:

• A deeper understanding of sexual trauma and common misconceptions about consent
• The many faces of emotional abuse and how it shows up
• How trauma impacts your self-worth, trust, and intimacy
• Why professional support is key to recovering from trauma
