Tuesday, 9 September, 2025
In this final chapter of Trauma and Social Work: A Mother and Son Dialogue, we conclude our exploration of healthy relationships with the self, the very first relationship each of us has before we connect with others.Tonya Octave, LCSW, reflects on how the mind often goes outward; toward other people and relationships, when in truth, the deepest healing begins by returning inward. Our first social relationship is with ourselves, then with our primary caregivers. This foundational truth is where transformation starts.KJ shares curiosity about the challenges people face in relationships, and how the OCTAVES Method was developed through over 20 years of lived experience, reflection, and practice.
