Description

My guest today is Stacy Schaffer, an author and therapist, with over twenty years of experience helping children navigate emotional and behavioral challenges. Specializing in both grief and Synergetic Play Therapy, Stacy creates a safe and nurturing place where people can take a deep breath. She also leads youth and family programs at The Refuge, a non-profit community center dedicated to healing community. Knowing children, teens, and young adults can feel heard and empowered energizes her soul and helps redeem all that has been lost. Outside therapy, Stacy loves spending quality time with amazing friends, surfing in the summer, reading at any opportunity, loving her golden retriever, Willow, kickboxing year round, and daydreaming about being a stand-up comedian. She continues to do her own therapeutic work in order to be genuine about her passion for healing. She loves to travel, but one can only escape the real world so many times. Her commitment to ensuring that children, teens, and young adults feel heard and empowered drives her practice, which offers essential support and recovery for those in need.. 

In With Love from a Children’s Therapist, Stacy takes readers on a deeply personal and professional journey through trauma, resilience, and healing.  As a survivor and a therapist with more than twenty years of experience, Schaffer weaves together her story with the lessons she’s learned from working with children, teens, and young adults. She explores the lasting impact of childhood trauma and the path to recovery, how anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation manifest in young people, and practical ways to create safety, understanding, and healing for ourselves and others.
