In this special episode of The Coherence Code Podcast, Dr. Lorne Brown shares a recording from the Healthy Seminars webinar series Anatomy of the Ego with Eli Recht. Together, they explore how the ego creates suffering through fear, false beliefs, emotional resistance, and unconscious defense mechanisms.Eli explains why suffering is not caused by external events but by our internal relationship to those events, and how awareness, acceptance, and conscious feeling can dissolve the cycle of suffering. Blending psychology, spirituality, mindfulness, and practical self-inquiry, this conversation offers a roadmap for moving from inner conflict to peace and coherence.Key Takeaways:The ego is not who you are—it is a mode of perception based on separation and duality. Suffering is created internally through resistance, not by external circumstances. Emotions are meant to move through us; when suppressed, they become trapped and fuel suffering. Awareness is the antidote to false beliefs, emotional resistance, and ego identification. Peace emerges when we stop fighting reality and learn to consciously experience what is present.Where to find Eli Recht:Website: https://elirecht.com/Optional donations for this webinar series can be made in one of three ways according to your preference:-Through Eli: Venmo (@Eli-Recht, last four digits: 4492), Zelle (info@elirecht.com), and PayPal (paypal.me/EliRechtTeaching)-Directly to Rancho Coastal Humane Society: https://rchumanesociety.org/donate/-To a local animal shelter dear to your heartYou can find past Lectures with Eli Recht on the Healthy Seminars Youtube Chanel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecveRQffXg4&list=PL-x76JGN5gKO23aGzqEdVJXntaxVt9gqvEli Recht's Bio:Eli Recht is a counselor, educator, and speaker who bridges psychology and spiritual awakening.

American psychiatry has built a sociological armor around itself that protects it from reform. The armor has two parts. Reverence and complexity. Together they form the most effective institutional defense system in American professional life. And the apparatus, in 2026, has evolved its most refined defensive move yet, the DSM-6 roadmap, which absorbs the entire body of structural critique against the field by publishing thoughtful documents acknowledging the critique is correct, while channeling an entire generation of reform energy into bureaucratic processes that will conclude, eventually, with the publication of a new manual that incorporates the language of the critique without changing what the manual does. Why the apparatus persists despite forty years of evidence it is failing. How residency capture, modality capture, and credentialing capture work together to produce a workforce whose tolerance for the mystery of the work has been systematically lowered. What would have to change. And why none of the obvious answers are actually answers. This episode covers: Of Two Minds. Tanya Luhrmann's anthropology of American psychiatric residency. How young doctors who enter training wanting to think across biological and psychological registers get formed, by the reward structure of training itself, into single-register practitioners. Why this is happening right now to the residents who started in 2025, and why the AI replacement is going to be welcomed by the field that has been preparing for it for a generation. How Aaron Beck got eaten. The careful, curious clinician who let his data change his mind. The three properties of cognitive therapy that made it perfectly compatible with the emerging managed care apparatus. Why Beck himself was not the version of Beck that got reproduced in the training programs. The selection pressure that captures every modality with the same properties, regardless of the founder's intent. The ABA parallel. Ivar Lovaas, the 1987 study, the autism insurance mandates, the BACB explosion. Why Applied Behavior Analysis became mandatory standard of care despite extensive evidence of harm from the autistic community. Henny Kupferstein on PTSD outcomes. The Autistic Self Advocacy Network. Private equity acquisition of ABA chains and what the moral crumple zone looks like at scale. Measurement as the real religion. The PHQ-9 and GAD-7 as Pfizer-funded screening instruments that became, by capture and convenience, the definitions of depression and anxiety in American clinical practice. Campbell's Law. Goodhart's Law. Theodore Porter on quantification as defense against weak internal authority. The IAPT case study from England, Layard's economic argument, David Clark's CBT rollout, Michael Scott's outcome research, Farhad Dalal's cognitive-behavioral tsunami. Why the entire international model of measurement-based care produces excellent statistics and very little durable change. The critics the apparatus could not absorb. Robert Whitaker on long-term outcomes and Anatomy of an Epidemic. Joanna Moncrieff and the 2022 serotonin meta-analysis that should have ended the chemical imbalance theory and didn't. Lisa Cosgrove on DSM-5-TR financial conflicts of interest. Why each of them produced exactly the kind of evidence that should have triggered structural reform, and why the apparatus dismissed each of them through credentialing arguments that were really about boundary policing. The DSM-6 trap. The closure-of-the-trap argument. Why the DSM-6 roadmap, which concedes the entire structural critique, is the apparatus's most sophisticated defensive move yet. Why being invited to participate in the DSM-6 working groups is the mechanism by which the next decade of reform energy gets neutralized. Why the manual is downstream of the apparatus and reforming the manual cannot reform the apparatus. Enshittification of care. Cory Doctorow's framework applied to American mental health. The four constraints that should have prevented it. How each was eliminated. Madeleine Clare Elish on moral crumple zones. Why clinicians absorb the moral and financial cost of an apparatus they did not design. The diploma mill. The accreditation conflict of interest. Why MSW programs, counseling programs, and PsyD programs have doubled their output without any accountability for what they produce. The accountability inversion. The structural fix. Why schools and boards should be liable for the clinicians they produce. Why the field needs both rigorous selection and rigorous accountability, and how the current system has neither. What would change if the field stopped being a diploma mill. Why this is not a return to Freud's priest class. Disagreement was the wisdom. Why the productive conflict between schools of thought was where psychology was actually thinking, and why the DSM-III atheoretical move killed the conversation that produced wisdom. Neither side wins. Why the cold machine and the warm ghost both need each other. Why the answer is not to defeat the apparatus but to stop mistaking it for the work. The coda. The Machines Will Start to Dream. The actual ending of the series. Why you do not need a conspiracy theory for any of this. The cold machines are nothing, the warm ghost is everything. The microcosm is the macrocosm because the systems are human. The AI threat as reality splitting, where the simulated layer becomes thick enough that the substrate underneath stops being accessible. Freud's permanent problem. Bureaucracy as the most successful avoidance technology humans have ever invented. The disbelief at the root. The question of whether you are more scared of yourself than of not seeing life clearly. The wager that even if humans always refuse, professional psychology should stop being the most refined refusal in the culture.

Welcome to The Online Therapy Clinic. I'm Jaime — CBT & ERP therapist, EMDR practitioner, and Clinical Supervisor. In this video, we're talking about habituation — the process of getting used to anxiety by staying with it, not running from it.

Building a meaningful practice often starts with a personal story, and grows through courage, creativity, and a commitment to helping others.  In this episode, I talk with Paula Gonzalez. We discuss her journey into mental health, which was shaped by both her background and lived experience, and how it led her from community work to launching and scaling her own private practice.  From navigating the early days of going solo during COVID to building a supportive group practice, Paula offers an honest look at growth, purpose, and the systems that make it all sustainable. Join us for a great conversation! MEET PAULA Paula Gonzalez is a Toronto-based Registered Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor, and the founder of Infinite Horizons Psychotherapy, located in North York. After 15 years working in community mental health and private practice, Paula made the decision to follow her passion and expand her solo practice into a group practice. Now, she works with a team of therapists who align with her mission to transform the way people experience therapy. Learn more about Paula on her practice website, Psychology Today, Facebook, and Instagram profiles.  In this episode:  Why Paula started working in mental health  Starting a private practice  Scaling from solo to group private practice  Using Jane App in private practice  Paula's advice to listeners  Why Paula started working in mental health  Over the last 15 years, Paula has dedicated her career to the mental health field.  'Even back in high school years, you know, when we had to volunteer, it's always been in mental health. Even in university and placements, and my Master's, and now being a therapist, so it's been a long time in this field!' - Paula Gonzalez When explaining how Paula came into the world of therapy, and what encouraged her to pursue becoming a therapist and working in mental health, Paula recalls her family lineage and that she came from a long line of women who worked in various helping professions.  'My mom being a social worker, my grandmother was a teacher, you know, my aunt is a doctor, so it's always been a part of my life to be in the helping profession. For me, having gone through my own experiences, like immigrating to Canada at a young age … That experience was very difficult for me … That made it clear … that I really wanted to become the kind of person I wish I had had at that time to get me through that.' - Paula Gonzalez Starting a private practice  Paula completed her Master's degree in 2016, and then she started working in community mental health, where she stayed for four years.  While Paula loved the community aspect of working with people in her city, it was difficult to find a full-time job at the time, especially since virtual sessions were not yet popular or common.  But when COVID hit in 2020, Paula started thinking about opening up her own solo virtual private practice.  'I did start in community mental health, and then I worked at a group practice. As a new grad, very new territory for me. Eventually, I decided, "I miss community mental health!" So I decided to go back. But then COVID hit. What led me to open up my own … during COVID … I felt so called to doing my part in working with folks directly.' - Paula Gonzalez  And so, Paula launched her online private practice! She would see clients in the evenings or even on weekends while she continued working in community mental health. Scaling from solo to group private practice  'Every day I wake up, and I'm like, "How, I can't believe I get to do this!" I'm still figuring it out as I go, but I love it.' - Paula Gonzalez  Creating the office spaces, editing the website, and social media content: all of these aspects are ways in which Paula gets to practice and unleash her creative freedom, and they are some of the things she loves the most about running a group practice.  More than that, Paula wanted to share the work and expand the impact by creating a team, which is what motivated her to take her practice from solo to group.  'I knew that I wanted to create a team … I loved my role as a clinical supervisor, but there's something about having a team of new grads, I love working with them, whether it is in a supervisory capacity or as colleagues, and knowing that we're all trying to figure this out … I find it so important to have a team as a part of our support system, and that aligns with what I'm hoping to put out there in the world.' - Paula Gonzalez  Using Jane App in private practice From her solo practice to her current group practice, Paula has consistently used Jane App for her business admin. '[Jane App] is so user-friendly. It's got everything that I need, I can pull the reports that I need to track metrics and see what's working, what's not … I've also gotten very good feedback from clients that use it too … Very user-friendly for both therapists and clients.' - Paula Gonzalez Jane App was designed to serve therapists and clients equally, while in different ways, and allows them both to navigate an easy interface that lets them communicate with each other smoothly.

Episode 8: The AI Therapist, the Generational Wound, and the Real Medicine The American mental health workforce is on track to be displaced by AI within ten years—and the psychiatric establishment isn't fighting it. They are welcoming it. Backed by venture capital and smoothed by insurance endorsements, AI therapy platforms are the ultimate fulfillment of what the "apparatus" has been building toward for 40 years: a delivery mechanism for psychotherapy that finally removes the unpredictable, unmeasurable human from the room. In Part 8 of this 9-part series, we expose what the AI replacement will actually do to the field of psychology, and why the variables that truly drive healing are the exact ones the industry pretends do not exist. In this episode, we explore: The AI Takeover: The meeting in San Francisco, what is actually being built, and why the psychiatric apparatus embraces the automation of therapy. The Generational Wound: How trauma shifts from the Greatest Generation to Gen Alpha, and the specific therapeutic interventions the "AI generation" is being shaped to need. The Convergent Rediscovery of Depth Psychology: How independent pioneers—including Richard Schwartz (IFS), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing), Bessel van der Kolk, Stephen Porges (Polyvagal Theory), and David Grand (Brainspotting)—all converged on the exact same picture of how trauma lives in the nervous system. The Dodo Bird Verdict & The Real Active Ingredient: Why 30 years of empirical research points to the therapist's regulated nervous system as the primary driver of successful outcomes—and why the industry ignores this. The Cost of Ignoring Culture: Groundbreaking insights from Tanya Luhrmann, Arthur Kleinman, and WHO data showing why non-Western cultures often see better long-term outcomes for schizophrenia. Beyond the DSM: Breaking down the 8 layers of human suffering, predictive processing, HiTOP, RDoC, and Karl Friston's free energy principle. Why replacing the DSM with dimensional models will still fail if we strip away the human connection. The active variables of psychological work are inherently untrackable. The industry has spent 40 years pretending that only the measurable is real, paving the way for the cold efficiency of artificial intelligence. But the real healing continues anyway, transmitted hand-to-hand in the rooms where it has always lived. About the Host Joel Blackstock is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), Clinical Supervisor, and the Clinical Director of Taproot Therapy Collective in Hoover, Alabama. He specializes in Brainspotting, Emotional Transformation Therapy, qEEG neurofeedback, Jungian psych, and somatic/depth approaches to trauma.

What if a major driver of today’s mental health crisis isn’t simply “more disorders,” but more people who feel unseen, unheard, and alone? In this episode of the Thinking Christian Podcast, Dr. James Spencer talks with Dr. Jackie E. Perry—Clinical Supervisor, Professor of Counselor Education at Columbia International University, and President of the Soulwell Center—about loneliness, the loss of emotional connection, and why the church must recover the skill of attuned listening. Jackie explains how the Soulwell Center began: while teaching counselor “helping skills,” she realized many of those relational tools could be taught in a lay-friendly way to parents, pastors, and everyday Christians. The result is a training approach that combines practical listening techniques with the neuroscience of relationships—equipping people to hold a safe space where others can feel truly “seen and known.” James and Jackie discuss a trend Jackie has observed across decades in the mental health field: in the last 10–15 years, more clients have been coming not primarily with severe pathology, but because they don’t have anyone who listens. Therapy becomes a paid place of connection—something that should not be rare in Christian community. The conversation explores how technology can create distance (including the rise of AI-mediated communication), why many people lack a “mental model” for deep listening, and how shame and perceived “threat” can make relational closeness feel unsafe. Jackie introduces the concept of “eyes of delight”—the nonverbal experience of being attended to with warmth—and explains why nonverbal presence often does more than words. They also connect listening to the broader formation of disciples: without embodied, relational connection, people drift into isolation, cope through substitutes, and struggle to develop distress tolerance—the ability to endure discomfort and stay engaged through conflict, hardship, and the messiness of real relationships. The result is not only loneliness, but fragility and retreat from vocation, mission, and spiritual maturity. In the end, Jackie offers a simple but demanding vision: the church must become a community that can listen across difference and reflect the “eyes of Christ.” That kind of faithful presence is not optional—it is essential for discipleship, mental health, and a credible Christian witness today. Topics include: Soulwell Center’s mission and the “listening course” Loneliness, mental health, and why therapy becomes a substitute for community “Eyes of delight” and the neuroscience of connection Shame, vulnerability, and why being known can feel threatening Nonverbal communication and why presence matters Distress tolerance, overprotection, and the formation of resilient adults What the church must recover to make faithful disciples You can purchase Heart Cries of Every Teen here.

Welcome to Legal Late Night! In this episode, host Jared Correia breaks down the shifting landscape of law firm marketing for 2026 and dives deep into the world of legal education with clinical supervisor Leticia Leal.   First, Jared shares his monologue on the rise of AI Search Optimization (AEO). He explains why content marketing and short-form video are more critical than ever as AI begins to infiltrate traditional search engines. He also challenges lawyers to look beyond Google Ads and explore alternative platforms like Reddit, Twitch, and LinkedIn to capture a younger client base.  Then, we are joined by Leticia Leal from the University of Houston Law Center. Leticia shares her journey of becoming a lawyer in both Brazil and Texas, explaining the fundamental differences between civil law and common law systems. We discuss the "roach-free" University of Houston immigration clinic, how AI is (and isn't) being used by law students, and the "internet famous" status she achieved through her creative LinkedIn content.  Finally, don't miss the Counter Program: "Duo Lingo." Leticia helps Jared (who is Portuguese but can't speak the language) translate famous pop culture phrases into Brazilian Portuguese—from Die Hard one-liners to Seinfeld references.  Learn more about Leticia Leal here.

On November 7, Commonwealth Club World Affairs of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, will host The Asian American Foundation's (TAAF) first-ever AAPI Youth Mental Health Summit. Under the theme “Sparking Solutions Together,” the summit will convene hundreds of experts, advocates, funders, and business executives to address the urgent and often overlooked mental health challenges facing Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) youth. From 2018 through 2022, suicide was the leading cause of death among Asian Americans aged 15–24, and the second leading cause of death among Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. Yet despite being deeply impacted by the nation's mental health crisis, AAPI youth remain largely invisible in the national mental health conversation, and the data needed to understand their mental health is scarce at best. To fill the gap, TAAF released "Beyond the Surface" in December 2024, the most comprehensive study to date on AAPI youth mental health, which revealed: Nearly 1 in 2 AAPI youth screen positive for moderate depression; 1 in 3 have planned or attempted suicide; Stigma, family pressure, and silence keep many from seeking help; Only 53 percent feel comfortable talking with their parents; Just 1 in 4 have accessed formal care; and 46 percent have never seen a mental health provider. Building on these findings, the November 7 summit will bring together leading experts to spark dialogue on breaking stigma, closing gaps in care, and exploring how community partners and technology are reshaping the ways young people seek and receive support.  Join us online to hear from: Midori Francis, Actor, "Grey's Anatomy" Ryan Alexander Holmes Owin Pierson, Creator and Mental Health Advocate Lisa Ling, Journalist Noopur Agarwal, VP of Social Impact, MTV Norman Chen, CEO, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) Philip Yun, Co-President and Co-CEO, Commonwealth Club World Affairs Rushika Fernandopulle, MD, Practicing Physician; Co-Founder and Former CEO, Iora Health; TAAF Board Member Juliana Chen, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Cartwheel Perry Chen,Director of Programs and Partnerships, Behavioral Health at Blue Shield of California Rachel Miller, Founder & CEO, Closegap Meena Srinivasan, Founding Executive Director, Transformative Educational Leadership Ayesha Meer, Executive Director, Asian Mental Health Collective Henry Ha, Program Director, Community Youth Center of San Francisco Anne Saw, PhD, HOPE Program Reid Bowman, MPH, CHES, Outreach & Program Manager, UCA Waves Rupesh Shah, COO of Crisis Text Line Tone Va'i, LCSW, Clinician, Samoan Community Development Center Amy Grace Lam, PhD, Chief Program Strategist, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christine Yang, ASW, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christina Yu, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor, Korean Community Center of East Bay William Tsai, PhD, Associate Professor, New York University Cindy H.

As healthcare gets more complex, revenue cycle management has gotten more complex as well as it becoming more difficult to find high quality RCM staff. That's why it's no surprise that many medical practices are outsourcing their RCM efforts. This was the case for Heather Boone, Clinical Supervisor at Orlando Heart and Vascular Institute, who decided to work with eClinicalWorks‘ revenue cycle management services. After choosing to have eClinicalWorks manage their RCM, they saw an increase of 30% in their reimbursements. Plus, payments are made an average of 21 days faster than before thanks for a mixture of eCW's highly skilled staff, learnings they bring from managing other practices' RCM, and leveraging AI.Learn more about Orlando Heart & Vascular Institute: https://www.heartorlando.com/Learn more about eCW: https://www.eclinicalworks.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

In today's episode of Yoga | Birth | Babies, we're diving into some of the common—yet often overlooked—stressors of pregnancy. We explore everything from hormonal changes and PMADs (Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders) to the profound life shifts that come with this transition. We also take a closer look at trauma-informed care: what it really means, how trauma is defined, and how to effectively communicate your needs to your care provider when it comes to support during birth. To have this conversation today with me on Yoga| Birth| Babies I have maternal health specialist Ja'Neen Jenkins. With a deep passion for supporting mothers through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, Ja'Neen integrates her expertise as a licensed mental health therapist, doula, and perinatal coach to provide compassionate, trauma-informed care. Ja'Neen holds a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, a Master's in Teaching from Louisiana College in Pineville, and a Master of Science in Counseling from the University of Louisiana at Monroe. She currently serves as the Clinical Supervisor at Jenkins Counseling Services, where she is committed to shaping the future of perinatal mental health care. In this episode, we talk about everything from birth debriefing and birth maps to nervous system regulation and how it influences the flow of labor. If you or someone you love is expecting, this episode is a must-listen. So often, people leave their birth experience feeling unsettled or disappointed. But as Ja'Neen and I discuss, the work done during pregnancy can significantly reduce the risk of birth trauma and postpartum mental health challenges.

In this episode of the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast, Star Rose Bond, LCSW joins to discuss the topic of using psychedelic-assisted therapy to address intergenerational trauma. As seen in Huffpost, Vice and Psychology Today, Star Rose is a Renegade Psychotherapist, Social Activist, Clinical Supervisor for PEARL Institute and Co-Founder of Life Camp. With a Bachelor's degree from NYU and a master's from Columbia, Star brings 15 years of clinical trauma therapeutic services and experience serving marginalized, under-resourced and at risk populations specializing in harm reduction and PTSD recovery. In this conversation, Star introduces the topic of intergenerational trauma and explores how psychedelic experiences may be leveraged to address this pernicious condition. She begins by explaining what intergenerational trauma means, how it gets passed down, and how it manifests. Star talks about the importance of psychedelic therapists and facilitators having awareness of trauma-informed modalities in order to better serve these populations. She also discusses the complexities of addressing generational trauma, and how it can often be difficult to process sensitive topics within the family unit. However, in conclusion, Star emphasizes that the capacity to heal is an intrinsic aspect of human existence, and that even in particularly dark moments, it is possible to get in touch with this possibility.    In this episode you'll hear: How the conditions of Capitalism produce and exacerbate chronic stress The profound impact of neglect and abuse in early childhood  The unique experience of intergenerational trauma for BIPOC peoples and the recent rekindling of a spirit of connection in these communities due to psychedelic medicines  How processing intergenerational trauma can transform familial relationships Ethical and practical considerations for facilitators and therapists guiding clients through psychedelic experiences aimed at resolving deep-seated trauma What to look for in a psychedelic-assisted therapist or facilitator   Quotes: “Just because you have several students or several clients who've experienced the same trauma, don't make the assumption that they're all experiencing it the same way. Or maybe you'll meet a client who has had trauma similar to yours—don't assume that they have undergone the same emotional impact or psychological impact as you. The truth of the matter is we are complex beings. We have so many different moving variables that go into our psychology and that essentially indicate or play a role in how we respond to things.” [8:43] “We can't always express or understand why things happen the way they do. But, we can start to make meaning through a spiritual understanding which in turn lends itself to a sense of ease and comfort.” [22:20] “When you are going into these experiences as a facilitator—whatever your background is—it is of the utmost importance that you are hyper cognizant and hyper aware of the harms that can be caused by not being aware of the ways in which you can navigate someone else's trauma as it shows up.”  [25:02]   Links: Star's website Star on Instagram Previous episode: Can Your Genes Predict Response to MDMA Therapy? with Dr. Dave Rabin MD, PhD Previous episode: Warning Signs When Selecting a Psychedelic Facilitator with Juliana Mulligan Previous episode: How to Choose a Psychedelic Facilitator or Retreat Center with Joël Brierre My Grandmother's Hands: Racialized Trauma and the Pathway to Mending Our Hearts and Bodies by Resmaa Menakem SHINE Support website Psychedelic Medicine Association Porangui
