Wrestling Ghosts: A Five Year Journey in Healing from Generational Trauma

By Joshua Moore, MA, LMHC, BCN | Room 310 | Academic Building

Join the NUNM Community  as  we watch this transformative documentary that gives us a window  into the recovery process of generational family trauma.

Kim is a young mother raising two boys with her partner Matt, a tattoo artist. The problem is that she just doesn’t feel motherly, something that troubles her deeply. Eager to make sense of her conflicted feelings around parenthood, Kim embarks on a reflective journey to explore her past, learning about the impact of childhood trauma on her ability to relate to her own children. Inviting the viewer into her counseling sessions, Kim demonstrates vulnerability and bravery in this deeply intimate and revealing portrait.

Joshua Moore, a faculty member of the Mental Health Program at NUNM and Licensed Mental Health Counselor, will lead a Q and A session after the movies completion in which we invite attendees to process their thoughts and reflections  about Kim’s experience and how we might incorporate trauma informed care into all facets of wellness.

Snacks and  beverages will be provided on a first come first serve basis .
