Dr. Damon Wood is back on the podcast. Damon was my guest on episode 370 of The Trauma Therapist | Podcast in which we talked about safety within the prison setting. Today, though, we’re talking about what it means to work within the prison setting. What’s involved, what’s it like working with this particular population? What are the specific challenges, and also, what are the upsides and the rewards of doing this type of challenging and demanding work?
