Strategies for Healing & Resilience With Holocaust Survivor Dr. Edith Eger and Her Daughter Dr. Marianne Engle
Amy Morin, LCSW
Verywell Mind Editor-in-Chief
On today's episode I talk with Edith Eger, a Jew who was living in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe when she and her family were sent to Auschwitz, a death camp. Dr. Eger and her sister survived, but their parents did not.
After the war, Dr. Eger moved to the United States and got her degree in psychology. She began treating people with PTSD, which inspired her to continue work on healing herself.

Dr. Eger's first child, Marianne Engle, also became a psychologist, and talks about what it was like to be raised by a Holocaust survivor.

PTSD isn't a sign of weakness. There are many factors that determine how someone will fare when they experience trauma. Some of those factors are within your control, some of them aren't.

Fortunately, there are steps you can take to heal from trauma. But what works for one person might not work for another. There are many different paths to healing.

You can't heal what you don't feel. So crying is good."
