Your Hope-Filled Perspective with Dr. Michelle Bengtson podcast
Episode Summary: When someone you love is living with PTSD, it can leave you feeling helpless, confused, and afraid of saying or doing the wrong thing. You want to help—but what if your well-intended words make things worse? In honor of PTSD Awareness Month, Rev. Jessica Van Roekel and I address the questions so many caregivers, spouses, friends, and family members quietly ask: How do I support someone with PTSD? What helps? What hurts? And how do I walk with them without losing myself? This conversation offers practical guidance, psychological insight, and biblical hope for anyone loving someone through trauma. On a recent episode of Your Hope-Filled Perspective, I offered an episode discussing Understanding PTSD: What it Is, What It Isn't, and How God Meets Us in the Aftermath of Trauma. We are continuing this important discussion with How to Help a Loved One Who Is Struggling with PTSD: What to Do and What Not to Do. Quotables from the Episode: PTSD is not a character issue or a lack of effort. It's a nervous system injury. What looks like withdrawal, irritability, or emotional distance is often the brain doing its best to keep a person safe. Change does not mean broken beyond repair. The brain is wounded, but it's also capable of healing. When we name trauma responses accurately, we reduce shame and increase compassion. PTSD behaviors are not about a lack of love. They're about a lack of felt safety. A regulated nervous system helps regulate another nervous system. You don't have to fix the trauma, but your calm, consistent presence communicates safety. Validation quiets the brain's alarm system and reduces emotional intensity. Trauma healing doesn't follow a timeline. It follows safety. Loving someone with PTSD is not about doing everything right. It's about doing your best with compassion.

Your Hope-Filled Perspective with Dr. Michelle Bengtson podcast
Episode Summary: What if the reactions you’ve judged yourself for—your hypervigilance, emotional numbness, sudden panic, or exhaustion—aren’t signs of spiritual weakness or personal failure, but evidence of a brain that has been doing everything it can to keep you alive? Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD, is one of the most misunderstood mental health conditions, especially within faith communities. Today on Your Hope-Filled Perspective, we are going to gently untangle what PTSD truly is, what it is not, and how God meets us not just in the trauma itself—but in the long, tender aftermath that follows. Today, in honor of PTSD Awareness Month, we’re going to talk about Understanding PTSD: What It Is, What It Isn’t, and How God Meets Us in the Aftermath of Trauma. Quotables from the episode: PTSD is not a failure of faith. It is the result of a nervous system that adapted to survive overwhelming circumstances." Your trauma responses are not moral failures. They are survival responses. The body remembers what the mind would rather forget. The same brain that learned to protect you can also learn safety again. God does not rush the healing He Himself designed to unfold gently. God is not disappointed by your symptoms. He is present in your healing. Scripture never teaches that faith erases biology. Your faith resides in your heart and mind, but trauma often lives in the body. And God cares about both. Healing from PTSD does not mean erasing your story. It means integrating it. Your trauma may have changed you, but it does not disqualify you.

You're catching this Health Happy Life podcast replay at the perfect time, especially with everything swirling around the Diddy trial right now. I spent this past Monday breaking down the medical reality behind what we're seeing unfold in those courtroom testimonies, and honestly? The connections between PTSD and domestic violence run deeper than most people realize.Since June marks PTSD Awareness Month, we couldn't ignore how this high-profile case spotlights trauma's ripple effects. But here's what really gets me fired up: the myths people still believe about trauma responses. We're setting the record straight on that.Billy Joel's recent tour cancellation opened up another crucial conversation about normal pressure hydrocephalus. Why are we missing these signs so often?

“Just because it's invisible doesn't mean it's not real. I believed me. And that changed everything," Dr. Deb Lindh Welcome to PTSD Awareness Month. In this powerful opening episode, Dr. Deb Lindh shares a deeply personal story—what it was like to ask for help and be dismissed, disbelieved, and ignored… and what happened next. This is more than a story about pain—it's about resilience, self-trust, and the power of breaking silence. From school counselors and troop leaders to one trusted therapist who finally named it—Dr. Deb takes us on a raw, reflective journey through stigma, invalidation, and ultimately, self-empowerment. Because while asking for help is hard, not being believed leaves a wound few talk about. Until now.

Send us a textAmy's Story Part 1Amy's Story Part 2Amy's Story Part 3Book A ConsultationFive years after launching this podcast as a "pandemic pivot" from my hammock, I'm marking this milestone by returning to the fundamentals of trauma and PTSD. This episode kicks off a comprehensive series that will guide you through understanding trauma's profound impact on mind, body, and behavior as we build toward PTSD Awareness Month in June.Trauma isn't simply about what happens to us—it's about what happens inside us when events overwhelm our natural capacity or "window of tolerance." I explain why comparing trauma experiences misses the point entirely and how traumatic responses actually represent your body functioning exactly as designed when pushed beyond its limits. You'll discover why physical symptoms like headaches, fatigue, and sleep disturbances often accompany emotional and behavioral changes, and why "the body keeps the score" is more than just a catchphrase.The episode demystifies Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, exploring why many experts (myself included) now prefer dropping the "disorder" label. I share insights from my journey from trauma survivor to trauma specialist, drawing connections between unhealed trauma and autoimmune conditions that developed through decades of avoidance.I answer poignant listener questions about preventing intergenerational trauma transmission and navigating complex trauma healing when traditional therapies feel overwhelming. The episode culminates with an exciting announcement about Victory Trauma Consulting, my new venture offering personalized trauma support services with sliding-scale pricing.Whether you're struggling with your own trauma history, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking education, this episode provides the foundational understanding necessary for healing. The only way through trauma is through it—and this series aims to light that path forward with clarity, compassion, and hope.You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED

Welcome back to The Trip Report Podcast, a production of Beckley Waves, a Psychedelic Venture Studio.Today, in honor of PTSD Awareness Month, we are speaking with filmmaker Brandon Kapelow, the writer and director of the short film titled An Act of Service which was published under the New York Times Op-Docs banner in the Spring of 2024.This powerful documentary explores the journey of a fire captain from Idaho as he navigates life with PTSD and treatment through ketamine-assisted psychotherapy.I reached out to Brandon because I was taken by the film's beauty and impact.In a field where hyperbole reigns, An Act of Service conveys the challenge of mental illness and the potential of recovery in a soft-spoken but powerful way.Brandon's dedication to mental health advocacy is deeply personal. His path began with the loss of his father to suicide when he was just 12 years old. This set him on a course of mental health advocacy and, eventually, filmmaking. His work has appeared in prominent outlets such as Time Magazine where he highlighted the issue of suicide in the Western United States.In this conversation, we discuss:* The inspiration and development of Brandon's film An Act of Service* The unique mental health challenges faced by first responders and the role of psychedelic therapy in their healing* The intricacies of capturing real-life therapy on film while maintaining the integrity and privacy of the therapeutic process* The broader implications of psychedelic therapy for mental health, especially in conservative and rural areas* Brandon's personal journey with ketamine therapy and how it has informed his work and advocacyBrandon's film not only sheds light on the transformative potential of psychedelic therapy but also provides a sober, nuanced portrayal of its impact on real lives. His thoughtful approach to storytelling offers a hopeful and optimistic view of the future of mental health treatment.And now, I bring you my conversation with Brandon Kapelow.Listen to the episode on Substack, Spotify, Google or Apple.Credits:* Hosted by Zach Haigney * Produced by Zach Haigney, Erin Greenhouse, and Katelin Jabbari* Find us at thetripreport.com* Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTubeTheme music by MANCHO Sounds, Mixed and Mastered by Rollin Weary This is a public episode.

He is the Fire Department Battalion Chief and Health and Safety Officer with the City of San Diego. June is PTSD Awareness Month, so we are happy to share our recent interview with Chief Picone. In this episode, Chief Picone shares his educational background, his desire to be a rock star, his journey as a career firefighter, and how he has grown to be a steward for cultural change with the City of San Diego Fire Department. The success of San Diego's program has attracted attention from fire departments across the nation and even the Tokyo Fire Department, the largest urban fire department in the world, and Chief Picone has been an integral part of the program since 2017. Chief's call to action is for cities and fire departments everywhere to adopt similar changes that have been made in San Diego so that first responders get the care they need when they need it. Key elements to the City of San Diego's success include: commit to building a culture of caring (it takes work!)demonstrate to first responders that you care about them and value their effortsencourage claims professionals to spend time with first responders to better understand the demands of their jobsaccelerate access to careprovide access to skilled and experienced medical professionals who are equipped to handle the needs of first responders, specifically when they come forward with symptoms of PTSDA few points mentioned during this episode with Chief David Picone:Firefighters and police officers are more likely to die by suicide than in the line of dutyFirst responders may experience 200+ traumatic events in their career vs. an average of 5 traumatic events in the average civilian's lifetime1 out of 3 first responders develop PTSDCity of San Diego Fire-Rescue Health and Safety Officehttps://www.sandiego.gov/fire/services/health-safety-officeDrexel University's Fire Service Organizational Culture of Safety (FOCUS) program for fire departments.

Welcome to Revive Ministries Podcast; this month's theme is “The Silent Pain” to recognize and bring awareness to Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Awareness Month, which is observed in the States but also an increasingly tough topic for those suffering and their families. The term “PTSD” first appeared in 1980 in the third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. However, earlier medical publications referred to conditions described as “soldier's heart,” “shell shock,” and “war neurosis.” With the prevalence of PTSD in the military community, it is not surprising that the effort to create awareness was launched as a tribute to a service member. On June 27, 2010, PTSD Awareness Day was established in recognition of Staff Sergeant, Joe Biel, a National Guard service member who experienced PTSD after two tours in Iraq and died by suicide in 2007. In 2014, the federal government designated the entire month of June as PTSD Awareness Month. Disclaimer: if you are in crisis, please seek appropriate professional help immediately.

PTSD is a lasting consequence of traumatic ordeals that cause intense fear, helplessness, or horror. Examples of things that can bring on PTSD include sexual or physical assault, the unexpected death of a loved one, an accident, war, or natural disaster. Families of victims can develop PTSD, as can emergency personnel and rescue workers.Tom Brokaw, The Greatest GenerationThe Cost of Peacehttps://www.history.com/news/after-the-war-a-soldiers-struggle-to-come-homeAfter the War: A Soldier's Struggle to Come HomeMilitary Industrial Complex Sacrificing People2 Samuel 11 (English Standard Version)11 In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to battle, David sent Joab, and his servants with him, and all Israel. And they ravaged the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.2 It happened, late one afternoon, when David arose from his couch and was walking on the roof of the king's house, that he saw from the roof a woman bathing; and the woman was very beautiful. 3 And David sent and inquired about the woman. And one said, “Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” 4 So David sent messengers and took her, and she came to him, and he lay with her. (Now she had been purifying herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned to her house. 5 And the woman conceived, and she sent and told David, “I am pregnant.”6 So David sent word to Joab, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” And Joab sent Uriah to David. 7 When Uriah came to him, David asked how Joab was doing and how the people were doing and how the war was going. 8 Then David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house and wash your feet.” And Uriah went out of the king's house, and there followed him a present from the king. 9 But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house. 10 When they told David, “Uriah did not go down to his house,” David said to Uriah, “Have you not come from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?” 11 Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah dwell in booths, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field. Shall I then go to my house, to eat and to drink and to lie with my wife? As you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do this thing.” 12 Then David said to Uriah, “Remain here today also, and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next. 13 And David invited him, and he ate in his presence and drank, so that he made him drunk. And in the evening he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house.14 In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah. 15 In the letter he wrote, “Set Uriah in the forefront of the hardest fighting, and then draw back from him, that he may be struck down, and die.” 16 And as Joab was besieging the city, he assigned Uriah to the place where he knew there were valiant men. 17 And the men of the city came out and fought with Joab, and some of the servants of David among the people fell. Uriah the Hittite also died. 18 Then Joab sent and told David all the news about the fighting. 19 And he instructed the messenger, “When you have finished telling all the news about the fighting to the king, 20 then, if the king's anger rises, and if he says to you, ‘Why did you go so near the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall? 21 Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman cast an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?' then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'”22 So the messenger went and came and told David all that Joab had sent him to tell. 23 The messenger said to David, “The men gained an advantage over us and came out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate. 24 Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall. Some of the king's servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.” 25 David said to the messenger, “Thus shall you say to Joab, ‘Do not let this matter displease you, for the sword devours now one and now another. Strengthen your attack against the city and overthrow it.' And encourage him.”26 When the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she lamented over her husband. 27 And when the mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son.

People affected by post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have a better chance of recovering and returning to work quickly if early intervention steps take place, rather than waiting for the person's symptoms to introduce themselves. We know how important it is to identify PTSD symptoms as early as possible, but it's equally important to ensure that the patient is getting the right kind of support for their unique circumstance. In this podcast, we're joined by Dr. Teresa Bartlett, managing director, managed care, Dr. Reema Hammoud, AVP clinical pharmacy, and Dr. Paul Peak, VP clinical pharmacy who define PTSD, identify the circumstances that could lead to a future diagnosis, share our response to PTSD claims and more.

With Renee Turnbell, Licensed Clinical Social Worker & Therapist Did you know that June is PTSD Awareness Month? Perhaps you might be asking, “What is PTSD, and what are the symptoms?” Post Traumatic Stress Disorder can be defined as ongoing emotional distress or difficulty recovering from a traumatic event. A trauma is a shocking or dangerous event that's either witnessed or personally experienced by an individual who feels their life is in imminent danger. Sadly, in recent years PTSD, and a newly diagnosed form of PTSD related to a history of repeated exposure to the triggering event, are on the rise. Many people think PTSD is associated primarily with veterans of war whose tour of duty has ended, yet the trauma of what they experienced is still with them. However, it's important to note that you don't have to be a veteran to experience PTSD. Virtually anyone can suffer from the condition. A variety of traumatic situations can result in PTSD such as physical assault, car accidents, sudden death of a loved one, sexual abuse, and more. If the lasting effect is a trigger for ongoing trauma, then it is PTSD. It's estimated that 60% of men and 50% of women may experience a traumatic event at least once in their lifetime. As a result, 8 out of every 100 people will develop PTSD at some point in their lives. That's why it's so important to understand the underlying cause and effect, as well as the preferred treatments for this condition. The good news is that PTSD can be treated. My guest today is Renee Turnbell. She's a licensed clinical social worker and therapist with the John D. Dingell Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Detroit. Through her work with the VA, Renee is very familiar with the symptoms, the impact on her patients, and how to successfully treat PTSD. What You'll Hear on This Episode: What is Renee's background and why was she drawn to the VA? What is PTSD? What is C-PTSD? What are the main symptoms of PTSD? Is PTSD considered a mental illness? Do medications work for PTSD? Is there a cure for PTSD? Why are more first responders and healthcare workers experiencing PTSD? What are the PLEASE Skills? How can someone get diagnosed with PTSD? What does Renee do to help her patients? How do service dogs help with PTSD? What should we do if we suspect a loved one is experiencing PTSD? Other ways to seek help. Today's Takeaway: Current statistics indicate that roughly 12 million adults in the U.S. report struggling with PTSD. The key here is that these statistics are based only upon those cases reported. Way more people could be suffering from PTSD but may be unwilling to seek treatment perhaps out of a sense of shame or embarrassment. Being diagnosed with PTSD is certainly not a sign of weakness or anything to be ashamed of. PTSD is a very treatable condition and there is no need to go on suffering when help is readily available. Sadly, our society can be extremely harsh and judgemental. For someone who is already in an emotionally fragile state, the fear of how others may treat them may cause them to remain silent. That's why it's so important that people feel safe in admitting when they are struggling and feel supported in their efforts to seek help. Remember, that every day is a gift. If someone around us is suffering as a result of trauma, we need to be understanding and compassionate. Asking for help takes courage and we want to be part of their solution rather than contribute to their pain. I'm Florine Mark and that's “Today's Takeaway.” Quotes: “Not everybody who experiences a traumatic event will develop PTSD.” — Renee “Usually with good self-care and support, it won't develop into PTSD.” — Renee “When we think of an illness, we think of something being wrong with somebody. Somebody wouldn't have PTSD if they didn't experience the trauma.” — Renee “PTSD actually affects the brain on a structural level.” — Renee “There's really no cure for PTSD, but some people can see a complete resolution of their symptoms through therapy.” — Renee “I think that's one of the biggest things; survivors sometimes do feel alone. And they don't feel understood.” — Renee Brought to You By: Gardner White Furniture Mentioned in This Episode: John D.

Dear scribblers + speakers, June is PTSD Awareness Month. Trauma is not the event, it's the aftershocks of the event. Overthinking + overcontrolling could be post-traumatic responses/strategies that have been part of your survival. The embodied question is: As you work-play through the narrative of your trauma (and its legacy), what rituals will have helped you seek transformative intervention? (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.) Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Take the Rest Assessment - Go from routine to ritual as you Notice + Nurture + Embody your cyclical rhythms. You'll receive your ritual-specific, personalized recommendation, which will help you tune into your body's wisdom to optimize tending to your rhythmic soul care. Therapy: Therapy for Black Girls Explore Trauma Therapy: Consider EDMR, CBT, and somatic approaches as you assimilate the broken-up bits of sensory memories.
