Generational trauma is definitely a buzz term in the mental health space — and although that opens up the door for more conversation on the topic, it can also leave us feeling unsure of what to do with the information.  That’s why I knew it was so important to explore this topic on the podcast.In today’s episode, I sit down with Alyssa Scarano, LPC Founder and Clinical Director of The Collective Therapy & Wellness and unpack what generational trauma actually looks like, how to recognize it in your own life, and how we may still be participating in patterns that were passed down to us. One powerful takeaway to keep in mind as you listen:“Two opposing thoughts can be true at the same time.” This concept comes up throughout our conversation and is key to navigating the complexities of generational trauma and also guiding the next steps toward healing.Find Alyssa Scarano, LPC @live.collective.wellness Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/collective.therapy.wellnesswww.collective-therapy.comRelated episodes from The Couch Next Door: Story Work (with Chassie Anders)Reparenting the Inner Child (Quick Check-In) Related Reading: Here Be Dragons: Treading the Deep Waters of Motherhood, Mean Girls, and Generational Trauma by Melanie Shankle I'd love to hear from you!
