Crappy Childhood FairyMy name is Anna Runkle: I teach people to recognize and heal the symptoms of Complex CPTSD (CPTSD). Because my work is on focused on overcoming childhood abuse and neglect, you'll sometimes hear me use the term "Childhood PTSD."
I'm not a doctor or therapist. I’m someone who grew up with several alcoholics in the family, and all the dynamics that tend to go with that -- poverty, neglect, violence, and an environment of chronic, deep stress. When I grew up, the telltale signs of Childhood PTSD were all there -- health problems, depression and anxiety, relationship struggles--but traditional therapies never seemed to help.
When I found what DID help, my whole life changed. For more than 28 years I’ve been teaching a program that anyone can use, whether or not they have access to professional help. I focus first on healing brain and emotional dysregulation, and then on changing the self-defeating behaviors that are so common for those of us traumatized as kids. I'm glad you're here!
She is amazing and useful 90% of the time, but just a heads up, 10% of the time I feel like she doesn't recognize manipulation by the men in listeners' stories. It can feel a bit gaslighty when she does that, so be warned. Otherwise she is a great resource for healing and recovering from childhood trauma, etc.
i like her work too!
