Our guest today is Maureen McEvoy, who volunteered to talk with us about re-enactment.  She provides three examples, including one that references sexual consent in marriage.  She clarifies that intrusions (like flashbacks) are when memory time invades now time, but re-enactment is when the same dynamic is actually happening again in now time (with different people or circumstances).  Trigger warning to passing reference to “home movies” which she uses in references to old messages and memories from the past (not child exploitation materials).
