Don Neufeld, Social Worker/Therapist

Don Neufeld, Social Worker/Therapist A forum for sharing with my clients and others the materials that I find meaningful, as resources for personal and societal change. I welcome your feedback.

I have chosen to set up this page as an opportunity to share resources and personal comments for clients and friends who choose to follow. I am committed to the confidentiality of my clients, and I caution you from posting in ways that will identify you. You will find general clinical and social materials that I feel add helpful information as food for thought. You will also note that some of the content has a "religious" flavour, and I hope that no one will feel compelled to believe or follow any specific creed that is not comfortable for you. I post such content because I do have a fair number of clients for whom faith is central to their journey of life.

If you never heal from what hurt you, you’ll end up bleeding on people who didn’t cut you.

Pain left unresolved doesn’t disappear, it lingers, influencing your thoughts, words, and actions. When old wounds remain open, they can cause you to overreact, misjudge, or take out your frustration on innocent people.

Healing is not about forgetting or excusing what happened. It’s about processing the hurt, learning from it, and releasing its power over your life. Only then can you engage with others without carrying the weight of past pain into every interaction.

Your experiences shape you, but they shouldn’t define how you treat those who haven’t harmed you. True growth comes when you protect your heart, mend your wounds, and approach life with clarity and compassion.

Heal first, so your love, patience, and trust are given freely, not tainted by old scars.💡✅

When we cultivate calm, they learn how peace feels.💚

The more I work with and understand trauma, the less I believe that it is an individual phenomenon. Our perception of it being about individuals - just minds, just bodies, just this person or that person - is itself a symptom of the trauma. There is no way to talk about trauma and the people who experience it without talking about the context within which it emerges and even wider circles of influence. From Holy Hurt by Hillary McBride
