In the world of trauma recovery, sometimes you can be an expert, and still not realize when you yourself are suffering from the effects of trauma. That’s where Guy Macpherson found himself. He holds a doctorate in clinical psychology and has spent the last several years studying the impact and treatment of trauma and early psychosis. Despite that, Guy needed help from others to identify his own trauma. In 2014 Guy founded The Trauma Therapist Project to raise awareness of trauma, and create an educational and supportive community for new trauma workers. Now, the associated podcast has hundreds of episodes and an audience in more than 160 countries. As Guy explains, a determined approach to help trauma victims can go a long way, regardless of a therapist’s level of experience.
