  • Can BDSM be a path to healing deep emotional wounds? 

    We sit down once again with Jayden Aubrey, a Black queer, non-binary trauma therapist, to explore the profound connection between BDSM and trauma recovery. Jayden shares how the dynamics of dominance, submission, and consensual power exchange can help individuals reclaim their sense of control and heal from past emotional wounds, particularly in cases of sexual trauma. They explain the therapeutic parallels between BDSM and other methods like drama therapy and EMDR, focusing on how reenactment in a controlled setting can release stored trauma. They also talk about essential topics such as the role of consent, negotiation, and aftercare in creating safe spaces for emotional healing and self-exploration.
