"NARM is really great at honoring that basic human need of being able to protect yourself. Being able to protect yourself doesn’t mean that you have a magic wand and you can make the world a safe place. It’s being able to do some things on your behalf that really honor your ability to be an actor in your own life." ~Caroline Clyborne Transforming Trauma host Sarah Buino is joined by Caroline Clyborne, MA, LCP, a psychotherapist in Austin, Texas who specializes in clients with chronic illness and parents who are raising children with medical challenges. Caroline is also a NARM Therapist and has seen the positive impact that addressing complex trauma, and specifically the NARM approach, has had on clients and families managing chronic illnesses and medically complex diagnoses. After having her daughter who was born with medical complexities, Caroline observed the impact that medical trauma has on many children, as well as the impacts on parents and families.  Caroline and Sarah discuss how disability, going in and out of the medical system, and other non-medical stressors influence the attachment relationship between parents of a child with disabilities and their children. These relational challenges often activate unresolved attachment and developmental trauma for already stressed and overwhelmed parents.  What’s often lost in the parents’ overwhelm is the sense that even when a parent doesn’t have the ability to change or predict their child’s medical complexities, they still have their ability to be a parent to their child. In the NARM approach, this is referred to as agency. Caroline talks about finding “relative safety”, even when there is still an ongoing sense of danger surrounding them. Even when a parent can’t keep their child completely safe, Caroline explains that they can orient themselves to the safety measures they are taking -- this space of relative safety allows parents to experience the agency necessary to sustain themselves and their children. Sarah draws parallels between the work Caroline does with this population of parents to all child-parent relationships in situations when the issue can’t be solved by the parent, such as during the current COVID-19 pandemic.  Caroline shares that when she was going through a very overwhelming time in her life as a parent, she would have loved to experience the feeling of agency that she found as she began engaging with NARM. She has since become a NARM Therapist which has enriched her capacities as a trauma-informed therapist. She finds the NARM approach to have strengthened her medical advocacy in adults with chronic illness and in parents raising medically complex and neurodivergent children.

Complex Trauma Therapy for Parents of Children with Medically Complex Diagnoses with Caroline Clyborne

Caroline Clyborne, LPC gives us the low down on her upcoming webinar, "Trauma 101-For Parents of Medically Complex Kids" on June 25, 2019. Previously on TSC Talks, Episode 27, Caroline gave us an excellent explanation of the different types of trauma, shock trauma &amp; developmental trauma, and how this is relevant to TSC. In this episode, Caroline gives listeners a review of what trauma is, the various and unpredictable ways we can find ourselves dealing with trauma in TSC, and why it's important for parent/caregivers &amp; anyone dealing with the sort of unrelenting nature of TSC related events to tune in. She gives some D.Y.I coping skills for navigating how to be as self-regulated and resilient as possible regardless of what's going on with one's child medically. Quoting Caroline, "If we are going to talk about self-care and the parent, we're not just talking about going to take a bubble bath. We're talking about how when there is a stressful situation, do parents have the ability in their current situation to manage the distress and then can discharge the anxiety of the situation after the stressful situation has passed?" This is a true learning experience for all of us and after listening, you'll be even more motivated to attend!
