Description

<p>In this episode, <a href="http://rachaelburton.com.au" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Rachael⁠</a> revisits the complex feelings that child sexual abuse evoke in both patient and therapist. Rachael discovers that her wish for magic powers has not disappeared and has reappeared in a different form. Beyond this, Rachael contacts both the magic and the terror of the therapeutic journey itself and the loneliness this sometimes produces in the therapist. </p> <p><br /></p> <p>Both Gill and Rachael conclude that while trauma itself is to be regretted, the person that we emerge as in the wake of trauma is to be embraced as a crucial and valuable aspect of our autobiography.</p> <p><br /></p>
