Trauma and the Brain 301: Biblical Implications
Show Notes

This episode is the culmination of the Trauma and the Brain series. I talk about what approaches to treatment may look like and review a top down and bottom up approach. The conversation ends with suggestions for different treatments and an intro to Eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), an effective modality of trauma treatment. Of course, we have excerpts of Scripture woven throughout the episode. Enjoy!
