As part of Trauma-Informed Cumbria, Dr Deba Choudhury will be conducting a training looking at “Intergenerational Trauma”. This will be a 2 hour online bespoke session followed by a Q&A session, taking place online on Monday 9th September 2024 at 10am-12pm.

Experiences shape you, even ones that aren’t your own: they can also be inherited from your family. It is likely that your experiences of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and many other psychological conditions can be traced back to your parents’, grandparents’, and great-grandparents’ trauma. Join us in uncovering how a distant familial trauma can imprint on you today in this enlightening talk with clinical psychologist, Dr Deba Choudhury. Explore the role of epigenetics and the mechanisms through which trauma is passed down through generations. Obtain valuable insights into your family history, and begin to understand the profound ways that your family’s past is moulding your current psychological landscape.
