Dr. Berman spent decades of her professional career working with those facing trauma and grief. That, of course, did not exempt her from suffering personal tragedy. She was absolutely devasted by the sudden, unexpected death of her only child, baby Kai. She also faced sudden critical illness, having survived catastrophic septic shock in the ICU and its aftermath.
“I deeply the get — on the most human level, the landscape and terrain of the healing journey. And the many different shapes of loss, secondary loss and in/visible wounds that we all may carry. All our wounds, all our memories deserve respect. Held with compassion, not judgment. We heal layer by layer, within the experience of safely connecting with our most authentic self and in feeling a sense of safety in connecting with others. This kind of healing work is of the mind, body, and very profoundly, of the soul. Our world so needs this kind of medicine. And it’s through my work in service to individuals facing suffering of all kinds, that I honor my beloved Kai and all of us in healing.” — Dr. Amy Berman, PhD, HSP, PMH-C
