Understanding the Impact of Complex Trauma on Dating & Relationships
Why does dating feel so overwhelming when all you want is a healthy connection?
In this episode, we explore how complex trauma can shape the way you approach dating and relationships—and what healing can look like.
You’ll learn:
- Common ways complex trauma shows up in dating
- How your nervous system may confuse safety with danger
- Why emotional avoidance, over-functioning, or shutdowns aren't “bad” behavior—but protective patterns
Whether you’ve experienced emotional neglect, relational trauma, or simply want to date more consciously, this episode offers compassionate insight to help you move forward.
