Do You Suffer From Vicarious Trauma?

For many of us, just watching the hurricane devastation on TV and hearing about it on the radio or social media can also cause a deep sense of fear and dread.

Psychotherapist and author John Tsilimparis tells Ted about some important signs to watch for if you think you may be affected.
