The spouse reconnected with his former therapist via Facebook instant messaging this weekend. They got to talking about current events.

"I counseled a member of a neo-Nazi group once," the therapist said.

"Did you learn anything useful about the movement?"

"This particular fellow was a victim of childhood sexual abuse. I think that was the root of his rage," the therapist said.

It makes me wonder how things would be different if American mental health care were in better shape.

!!! I have so many Feelings about American mental health care, but they mostly drill down to: people should have to learn about the effects of trauma and how trauma processing works either in high school or college. And anyone who's going to be in a position of authority, or working with a high volume of people in the "system," should have to be fully educated on some dissemination of Trauma-Informed Care, no matter what model they pick (I lean heavily toward CBP, but I am Biased as Hell).
