@BradleyWhitford @KamalaHarris Um ….. finally?!

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@Theholisticpsyc yes. you may find this interview I did with Darian Leader relevant. Back then, in his book The New Black, he was making similar arguments. https://t.co/ahHtychA57

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@Leahgreenb Yes, that’s what actual leadership looks like

@JKSteinberger The primary ways that I know about responding to trauma response have to do with nervous system regulation: it makes sense you feel this way… are you open to exploring a different way forward? And creating containers for the real work: the work of metabolizing very bad news.

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@JKSteinberger I also believe that it’s worth calling out the “doomer” handwringing that you aptly observe is itself a trauma response. Which raises the question: how do we engage with trauma response?

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@JDaviesPhD This is interesting you are asking as I'm writing a book distilling what makes therapy "work" in service of modalities to help heal our planet. My picks based on experience + colleagues: Attunement, quality of relationship, honestly/tough love, accountability. Full stop.

@schipper_lisa @DeutscheWelle @dpcarrington @guardian I think it’s so much more nuanced, honestly. People don’t want to hear about taking action if they’re grieving and overwhelmed - that adds to the distress. We need to first attune…and then encourage action. https://t.co/i4HObVGz3b calls this guiding. It’s a way to support action

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@blgtylr I should clarify, absolutely insane (amazing) opening paragraph.

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@blgtylr That’s an absolutely insane opening few lines. Wow. I’m so jealous. 🥳

[Dr. Renee Lertzman @reneelertzman]

@annajanejoyner @brittwray not sure on what the question is. massive literature in psychodynamic, psychoanalysis, neuropsych on how we process and metabolize complex, charged experiences, content and so on
