When endometriosis trauma is too big for standard talk therapy, what comes next? In this episode of Endo Warriors, host Callie Greenberg sits with guest Arianna Jacono to discuss the emotional and medical realities of living with endometriosis, including diagnostic delays, medical gaslighting, and the limits of traditional therapy and medication management.

Arianna and Callie explore the healing power of peer-led support, the role of trauma-aware care, the fact that surgery is not a cure, and practical steps for finding more empathetic providers and community. They unpack why so many endo patients feel unseen even by mental health professionals, and what it takes to rebuild after years of being unheard.

This conversation is for anyone who has felt like therapy alone wasn't enough, and who needs to know there are other paths to healing.

In this episode:

• Why traditional talk therapy often falls short for chronic illness patients
• The trauma of medical gaslighting and diagnostic delays
• Why surgery is not the cure for endometriosis
• Peer-led support and community as healing
• How to find a trauma-informed provider
