What Even is a Trauma Therapist, Anyway?

A trainer and mentor of mine recently said, out loud, on the internet, that she wasn't sure "trauma therapist" was even a thing anymore. That got under my skin enough to build an entire episode around it.
So what does that title actually require? Not vibes. Not a worksheet and some confidence from a weekend training. This episode breaks down the Adaptive Information Processing model — the actual clinical framework behind EMDR — and why knowing trauma exists when it walks in the door is not the same as being trained to treat it. (Yes, there's an orthopedic-surgeon-diagnosing-diabetes bit. Yes, I know the medical model comparison is rich coming from a therapist.)
We get into the gap between knowing something and your nervous system actually believing it, why EMDR is a full psychotherapy model and not just finger-waving, and why "trauma-informed" has become the McDonald's-added-a-parking-spot of clinical language. Some dark humor, one Taco Bell reference, and a hard line on what this title should mean if we're going to keep using it.
