Key Quotes

“Where there is trauma, there is hope. If there was a change for the worse, it means there can be a change for the better.”
“The mental state of the parent is the best predictor for the mental state of the child.”
“"All my life I was like a rock, like a stone... And as soon as you arrive and you understand you have zero control... I realized I need to become water."”
“The story of witnessing trauma is a deeply significant part of therapy, and it doesn't happen in the first moment. The memory of trauma is not encoded like other memories; it is recorded in the body, often fragmented, non-sequential, and sometimes incoherent. The narrative of testimony is therefore a process that sometimes takes weeks, months, and even many years.”
“Education of the mind without education of the heart is no education at all.”
“If we, as a society, take a few years of massive effort to help them get back on their feet, they are the engine that drives us. If we know how to do that, we will all benefit.”
“We believe that if we strengthen the circles surrounding children and youth, we can provide them with tailored solutions.”
“We don't have to frame it as trauma. We can frame it as something else or something like let's help the mental.”
