Episode Overview:

In this episode of the podcast, we are joined by Ilyse Kennedy, a trauma therapist, to talk about the intersection of trauma work, spirituality, and healing modalities. We delve into the integration of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and somatic experiencing in therapy sessions.

Key Topics Discussed:

1. Integrating Modalities: Ilyse and I explore how trauma therapists integrate modalities such as IFS, EMDR, and somatic experiencing into their practice to guide clients through healing processes.
2. Spiritual Dimensions: The conversation touches upon the spiritual aspects of trauma work and the role of spirituality in connecting with one's authentic self.
3. Therapeutic Process: We discuss the importance of therapists doing their own inner work to be able to hold space for clients in deep trauma work and to navigate therapeutic processes effectively.
4. Depth of Trauma Work: We emphasize the significance of delving into the depths of trauma with clients, highlighting the importance of therapists being comfortable in those spaces alongside their clients.
5. Client Empowerment: The discussion underscores the empowerment of clients to ask potential therapists about their depth work and personal experiences before initiating therapeutic relationships.
