Trauma Recovery: Taking Your Power Back, Who to Work with, & Truth about Tools & Self-Help
About this episode
In this episode I (Carly Ann) am honoured to sit with mental health counsellor Lara Land for an honest and important conversation about trauma and recovery.
As you will hear, Lara is a compassionate expert - she is qualified, realistic, and so passionate which is what this podcast is all about.
This is really one not to be missed if you are interested in trauma recovery for yourself or clients.
We talk about trauma, without quick fixes or overwhelming explanations. This episode explores how trauma affects the nervous system, why healing is deeply connected to safety and choice, and how recovery can unfold at a pace that feels supportive rather than scary.
- We discuss:What trauma is and how it impacts the nervous system
- What recovery looks like
- Choosing the right person to work with
- Why choice and autonomy matter
- What support trauma therapy to be effective
- Good practice in trauma recovery (great if you’re looking for a therapist)
- Why some tools work for certain moments and not others
- How awareness and journaling can help interrupt familiar patterns
This episode is for anyone who wants a clearer, more compassionate understanding of trauma and what healing truly involves
