The Forgotten Childhood Trauma - Impact & Healing of Neglect

Join me for an important conversation on an often forgotten, yet deeply impactful ,form of childhood wounding.
Neglect is a silent wound that can be hard to acknowledge… and heal.
It’s often minimized, denied, and overlooked. Sometimes, even by those in mental health, child protective services, and the justice system.
Just as being able to acknowledge other forms of childhood trauma is necessary for healing, so is neglect.
In today’s episode, I’ll talk about the importance of recognizing neglect as a form of trauma and the need for individuals who have experienced it to receive support and validation in their healing journey.
Have you experienced neglect? Have you always identified it as neglect or a form of trauma? Share in the comments.

A wonderful video and very well explained. I agree neglect is not spoken to enough in general and often in the therapy room as well. One of my many challenges on my personal healing journey was not having an idea of my own needs. I had to have a therapist explain what a need might look like at the beginning of my healing. Feels dumb now but is often the experience of those who have experienced neglect. It has taken me a very long time to understand my needs to include my need to be safely attached. Your video is very profound and has really hit me in my heart. To my surprise, I burst into tears watching your video. I no longer deny physical and emotional neglect in my childhood. However, I do acknowledge that I've made a lot of excuses as to the why there was neglect in my childhood which has been unhelpful.
Thanks for your video!😊❤️
