CACM CHAT - HOA LIFE

In this special LA Fire episode, host Tom Freeley sits down with Dr. Diane Gehart, an award-winning psychotherapist, to explore the emotional impact of the recent LA fires. They discuss how victims can recognize when it’s time to seek professional help, cope with grief and uncertainty and take steps to rebuild resilience after such a life-altering event.

With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Gehart also shares practical advice for supporting other managers or victims. Including using empathetic language, setting healthy boundaries and balancing empathy with self-care. Whether you're directly affected or looking for ways to help, this conversation offers valuable insights to navigate trauma with compassion and strength.
