“Why Can’t I Remember My Childhood? Dissociative Amnesia 101 | Psychotherapy Crash Course

#trauma #CHILDHOODMemory #PTSD Note:Camera is still under construction. Apologies for quality . When I began my career as a trauma therapist I found myself seeing a lot of adults and adolescents who reported either “faint“ memories of their childhood or no memories at all of their childhood. As I continued to study and attend seminars, conferences, and consult with colleagues, I began to adjust my questioning of my clients/patients during their sessions about their childhood and later found out that most of these clients/patients were struggling with dissociative amnesia (or a form of memory loss due to trauma). Childhood experience really is the start of most challenges for a lot of people. Traumatic childhood experience can dictate the developmental course for those who are longing to heal as adults. Although there is hope for those with traumatic childhoods, if you experience memory loss due to trauma you may recognize that your loss of memory is more psychological than you thoughts. In this video, I will be discussing the various types of memory loss or amnesia that you may experience as one with a traumatic history. **Movies mentioned will be posted here: 1.
