Episode 237 | The Joy Reset: The Intersection of Trauma and Joy with Dr. MaryCatherine McDonald, PhD

In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Dr. MaryCatherine McDonald, a PhD trauma researcher, about the intersection of trauma and joy. Dr. MC discusses how she came to specialize in researching trauma and defines for listeners what both trauma and joy are. Dr. MC discusses some common misconceptions about joy or how it is conceptualize, as well as some ways that trauma impacts joy. We discuss her book, The Joy Reset, and discuss six common barriers that prevent us from accessing joy - hyper vigilance, emotional numbing, fear of loss, conditioning, guilt, and shame. Dr. MC also discusses the Hope Circuit and how we can build ours. Further, Dr. MC discusses how those who have experienced trauma take back control and start experiencing joy once again.
