141 HIV Screening and Education: We Need to Do Better
https://302.buzz/PM-WhatAreYourThoughts
When you think of HIV, do you breathe a sigh of relief thinking “well, at least we don’t have to deal with THAT anymore”? Has it completely fallen off your radar as a medical issue that is “under control”? Well, then it’s important that you listen to this episode. Dr. Gaggino talks with Dr. Julia Rosebush and Britt Hodgdon, LCSW. Together they dive into the topic of HIV and trauma recovery. They’ll share insights on how to support individuals living with HIV and overcome stigma, as well as discussing the concept of undetectable equals untransmittable and how it impacts communication and relationships. You’ll also hear about the role of trauma recovery and somatic therapy in destigmatizing HIV and promoting self-perception. This is a powerful conversation on how to thrive with HIV and befriend it.
