Understanding Traumatic Stress and Retraumatisation in Our Community

Join us on the Best Health Podcast as we talk with Dayla of Teleconnect Bermuda about the impacts of traumatic stress and retraumatisation in our community. We discuss the ripple effects of violence and economic challenges, the importance of validating pain, and how epigenetic studies show that trauma cane passed through generations. Dayla shares her insights on healing and advocacy, and the critical role of community support in mental health care.

 

Dayla is a Bermudian native and clinical mental health counsellor who has a passion for advocacy. She has earned her Bachelors of Art in Sociology from University of Central Florida and a Masters degree in adult clinical counseling from University  California. She is a licensed allied health professional with the Bermuda Health Council and the Bermuda Addiction Counselors Board. She is currently working as an Addiction Counselor in a local outpatient treatment setting. Dayla founded Tele Connect in 2019 when she identified barriers that exist for people seeking mental health care. Dayla’s vision for Tele Connect extends beyond the online realm and into direct practice. TeleConnect will be launching counseling services this year.
