There's something powerful about naming what we all see but don't always say out loud.
Adverse Childhood Experiences aren't just statistics or case studies. They're woven into the our lives, the lives of people we love, clients we sit with, communities we're part of.
And Dr. Nadine Burke Harris has spent years helping us understand that ACEs don't just live in our memories or our emotions. They live in our bodies. In our nervous systems. In the way our brains developed and our immune systems learned to respond to the world.
It's heavy to hold. But it's also hopeful. Because when we stop turning away and start saying "this is real, this is all of us," we can actually begin to heal it.
This March at the 49th Annual Psychotherapy Networker Symposium, Dr. Burke Harris will walk us through what science teaches us about toxic stress and how we can create a different kind of care. The kind that sees the whole person. The kind that changes lives.
We hope you'll be there. March 19-22 in-person and online. Link in comments.
