How does experiencing grief or trauma as a child impact loneliness later in life? Tayla’s dad died when she was nine years old. Experiencing trauma at such a young age distanced her from her friends and the world around her. For Tayla, it felt easier to isolate herself than having to constantly explain the source of her grief.

Now in her twenties, Tayla wants to face her loneliness. In this episode of We Are Lonely, Tayla’s meeting with counsellor and mentor Tessa Blencowe and trying to find a way to break down the walls she’s built around herself. We’ll hear Tessa take Tayla through the process of Internal Family Systems Therapy, or parts theory.
