How to Deal with Family Trauma
Friday, 10 July, 2026
Gbotemi Babatunde, a clinical psychologist, discusses intergenerational trauma and how unresolved trauma affects child-parent relationships. Babatunde explains trauma as complex and subjective, noting that unprocessed experiences can shape perceptions, trigger protective responses, and be unintentionally transferred to children through modeling, emotional distance, overcontrol, and difficulties with co-regulation. She describes how children seek safety and love, and how parents may focus on material provision while missing emotional needs. In infant mental health, she emphasizes working with parents by exploring their "angels and ghosts in the nursery" to understand parenting patterns and child behavior. Healing begins with awareness, processing painful memories, forgiveness, coping with triggers, intentionality, and repairing ruptures, including apologizing to children; she notes ongoing challenges with teenagers and adult children when control and connection break down.
