Ep 08 - Jacob Ham, PhD - Love after Trauma

We went into the mind and psychotherapy session of Dr. Jacob Ham, a clinical psychologist who specializes in the treatment of trauma. He is the director of the Center for Child Trauma and Resilience and assistant clinical professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Hospital. In our interview, he described how pain from the past affects our current relationships and ways that he helps hurt people heal interpersonal wounds and build trust and love again. To help us understand, he shared with us a recording from a real couples session that is a moving demonstration of his work and the power of couples therapy to build back healthy connection.

While reading Stephanie Foo's book " what my bones know "...Dr.Jacob Ham is mentioned in her book...& after reading her book ,binged on UA-cam videos listening to Dr.Ham . How he chooses his words and his content is clear and useful.
Recently listened to a podcast by Rich Roll who interviewed Dr.Andrew Huberman....also Brilliant.

Wonderful session. Thank you all and the couple very much for sharing this with the public. I know just how the woman feels. For the life of me I couldn't understand why I was so heart-stoppingly afraid all the time of things going wrong. Now I do. At the end of the interview Dr Ham says the way through is to sit with the guilt and fear of abandonment. I take something from that today. Although when I have done that, it didn't insert anything positive to replace it. All I was left with was the reality of endings and damages. I believe some positive experiences are necessary to replace the bad history, even if that's done only in the mind alone. It is too much for the person who's been so fundamentally betrayed to bear the burden of guilt and fear alone, yet again. There needs to be love and redemption.
