How Childhood Trauma Affects The Brain

When a child grows up in fear, the brain doesn’t just remember — it adapts. This video explores what childhood trauma does to the brain, how Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) shape development, and how understanding these adaptations can lead to healing. Neuroscience shows that trauma isn’t only about what happened, but how the developing brain rewired itself to survive. When early environments are unsafe or unpredictable, the brain builds around protection, not connection — a survival intelligence that can later shape emotion, memory, and behaviour. Through compassion and understanding, healing becomes possible. Safety, trust, and consistency can help the brain learn that it no longer needs to survive — it can begin to grow. ⸻ References and Further Reading: • McCrory, E. J., & Viding, E. (2015).
