The Trauma Nerd | The brain of a booked-out trauma therapist

health, fitness, mental · EN-AU

You know what they say. I know what they miss. Sorry to say it (am I, though?), but a lot of trauma content online is wildly oversimplified. Possibilities get presented as facts, complicated psychological processes get reduced to neat little explanations, and important distinctions that could completely change how you understand something get left out. Sometimes it's what you've read that's missing something, not you. I'm Helen Billows, a registered psychologist, EMDR therapist and consultant with more than 7,000 trauma and EMDR sessions behind me. We'll challenge familiar assumptions, unpack misunderstood concepts, and distinguish between experiences that can look frustratingly similar on the surface. Expect clinical honesty, practical takeaways, and a host who thinks she’s funnier than she actually is. New episodes fortnightly.
