In this insightful episode of Victim 2 Victor, we are joined by Arham Abtahi, a psychotherapist and researcher specialising in trauma recovery and integrative psychotherapy. Arham supports individuals navigating the effects of childhood trauma, abuse, cultural displacement, and complex relational wounds - helping them rebuild safety, trust, and a sense of self that trauma once fractured.

With a warm and grounded approach, Arham blends psychological theory with human connection, emphasising that healing is not about “fixing” what is broken, but remembering and reconnecting with what has always been whole. We explore the many forms of trauma, how it shapes the nervous system and sense of identity, and why the therapeutic relationship itself can become a deeply reparative experience.

This conversation offers practical insights, compassion, and hope for anyone on their own healing journey.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What trauma really is - and what it is not
  • How trauma lives in the body and shapes emotional patterns
  • Why integrative psychotherapy allows for deeper healing
  • The role of trust, safety, and relationship in trauma recovery
  • Cultural sensitivity and why healing is not “one-size-fits-all”
  • How survivors can cultivate self-compassion and resilience

Whether you’re healing from past experiences or supporting someone who is, this episode invites you to slow down, deepen your understanding, and remember that recovery is not linear - but always possible.
