Agent Hotchner encounters a killer who shares his traumatic past. This scene highlights the profound choice we all have between letting pain define us or using it to fuel growth and healing. On “TV Head Drama”, hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and guest Rabbi Gaines discuss the psychology behind this concept.
Trauma Doesn’t Define Us
Even if we experience similar traumas, we have the choice to use our pain for growth or for harm.
Therapy Is Key
With therapy, we can process trauma, understand its impact, and learn healthy coping mechanisms.
We Have the Power to Choose
Rabbi Gaines reminds us that even difficult experiences don’t have to control our lives. We can choose to heal and use our challenges to help others.
