Listen as Ms. Demas discusses the ins and outs of trauma, her area of specialization, with Dr. Carlie in this timely conversation.  As many people in our country are experiencing traumatic events both personally and in groups or as a community, trauma is a topic that should be hot, but often times goes undiagnosed and unidentified.  Glenda explains how trauma is often the root cause of anxiety disorders, and how she helps to uncover these unknowns for her clients.  She also shares what types of trauma disorders we see more in the African American community, along with what experiences are considered trauma that many would not think to classify as such.
