Summary

Cultivating a culture of transparency is a challenge for any organization. Recording it for posterity on a podcast is a lesson in embodied connection. Transforming Trauma host Emily Ruth welcomes back Brad Kammer, Training Director and Senior Trainer at Complex Trauma Training Center (CTTC), and Stefanie Klein, CTTC’s Assistant Training Director and Trainer, for a heartfelt and candid year-end conversation.

The trio celebrates all that CTTC has accomplished and discusses challenges associated with creating and maintaining innovative programming that supports therapists in being a meaningful part of a community in a field that, according to Stefanie, “can be a very hard, lonely job.”
