Hiring great recruiters should be second nature for recruitment business owners—after all, it's what we do for clients daily.

In Part 3 of The Journey Beyond Death—and the second installment of our Mental Health Resiliency arc—we take a deeply personal and professional dive into the labyrinth of grief. Guided by voices shaped through trauma, therapy, and triumph, this episode explores the raw emotional landscape that follows profound loss. With the haunting echoes of personal stories—from being raised by Holocaust survivors to losing parents to Alzheimer's and suicide—our guests share tools that helped them move through sorrow with grace: meditation, therapeutic writing, community, and nature. Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau and holistic psychiatrist Dr. Rebecca Valla illuminate how grieving minds need structure, empathy, and non-judgmental support. Clinical psychologist Dr. John Huber breaks down how guilt and irrational thinking can derail healing—and what practical methods can restore inner balance. Dr. Pat Baccili delivers powerful spiritual and psychological reflections on trauma and the human need to witness grief without solving it. We also highlight Functional Health Practitioner Karen Shoshana's unique insights into how somatic care—sleep, breath, nutrition—can ground us during loss. And Dr. Gaini De Silva offers a compassionate look at adolescent grief and physical practices for emotional regulation. Together, these voices reveal that mourning is not a timeline but a terrain—and those who traverse it consciously can emerge stronger, wiser, and more open-hearted than ever. This episode reminds us that grief is sacred. It is an invitation to become more human, more whole, and, paradoxically, more alive. Whether you've just begun your grieving journey or are still haunted by echoes from years ago, this episode offers powerful emotional tools, insights, and hope. --------------------------------------- Featuring in order of appearance: 01:00 – Karen Shoshana 11:00 – Psychotherapist Megan Bruneau 13:46 – Dr. Pat Baccilli 20:00 - Forensic Psychologist Dr. John Huber 42:40 – Dr. Rebecca S.

To introduce this novel format, past peer-reviewed research will be discussed from the empirical-based inquiry. For the majority of our time together, however, participants will be invited to work collaboratively and in embodied ways to create their own PPSAs using a number of expressive arts tools, including creative writing, digital apps, and mask-making. In particular, participants will discover the theory, processes, and outcome of this restorative way of doing participatory research within narrative inquiry. Synthesizing personal explorations to enhance emotional or clinical development — then creatively reconstructing that information and affect into PPSAs with the intent to re-story and restore self-identity while being witnessed — can be very effective in treatment, as well.PLEASE NOTE: Participants' knowledge of qualitative research tenets and methods will be beneficial.

When was the last time your doctor mentioned your soul during treatment? I'm willing to bet never—and that's precisely the problem Dr. Catherine Kelly addresses in this profound conversation about what's missing from modern medicine and psychology."The father of medicine, Hippocrates, said the soul is present in every illness and every organ over 2,000 years ago. Carl Jung said the same for psychology. But where is it now?" Dr. Kelly asks. As a former medical school professor, she witnessed firsthand how the soul has been systematically removed from our healing traditions despite being the most foundational aspect of who we are.In this eye-opening discussion, we explore the Soul Health Model—a revolutionary framework visualizing our wellbeing as a tree with ten essential branches, including physical, psychological, interpersonal, financial, sexual, and recreational health. For practitioners interested in incorporating soul health into their work, Dr. Kelly shares details about her new certification program designed to bring this missing dimension back to healing professions. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected, or simply curious about a more holistic approach to well-being, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on how reconnecting with your soul might be the missing piece in your healing journey.Bio Dr. Katherine Kelly, is a licensed psychologist in her own psychotherapy, soul-healing/coaching and consulting practice in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She completed her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Southern Colorado (1992) and both her Master's (1995) and Doctorate in Counseling Psychology (1999) from Indiana State University. She also earned a Master of Science in Public Health degree (2000) from the University of Missouri-Columbia, where she completed a Post-Doctoral Fellowship in the university's Department of Family and Community Medicine. She has received specialized training from the Mind-Body Medical Institute of Harvard University and has been trained in various holistic, natural health, and spiritual methods of healing, including nutritional psychotherapy, aromatherapy, Pranic Healing, Reiki, Soul Realignmen,t and other practices. Her dedication to healing has been widely recognized as she was the recipient of the Provider of the Year Award by the regional Mental Health Association and was nominated as an Incredible Woman for a local community television network, which spotlights role models to inspire young women to pursue their own passions.Website and Social Media drkatherinetkelly.comSoul Heal https://drkatherinetkelly.com/level-one-soul-health-certification/We hope you have enjoyed this episode.

The Trauma Therapist | Podcast with Guy Macpherson, PhD | Inspiring interviews with thought-leaders in the field of trauma.

Dr. Kelli Palfy began her professional career working in adult and youth corrections. Here she noticed a disproportionate number of males in the system. In 1996, she became an RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) officer. She took an interest in investigating sex crimes and went on to specialize in sex crimes committed against children internationally. Here, as she combed through video evidence, she witnessed first-hand the grooming tactics commonly used by sophisticated pedophiles.After retiring from the RCMP, Dr. Palfy obtained her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Alberta. She conducted her doctoral research on the reasons why males don't commonly disclose sexual abuse. She is now a trained trauma therapist and public speaker on the topic of male sexual abuse. Dr. Palfy currently runs a small private practice where she works with male survivors of abuse, first responders, and couples using Emotion-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral Approach, plus Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Outside of her professional life, she enjoys hiking, cycling, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and hanging out with friends and her pets.In This EpisodeKelli's website---If you'd like to support The Trauma Therapist Podcast and the work I do you can do that here with a monthly donation of $5, $7, or $10: Donate to The Trauma Therapist Podcast.Click here to join my email list and receive podcast updates and other news.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.

Michelle and Katherine are happy to welcome Furkhan Dandia for a discussion on the intersection of spirituality and therapy!Traditional therapy has long been dominated by the “supremacy of the mind,” cognitive processing and talking about our problems. But as more people turn towards non-religious, animistic spirituality, principles of energetic awareness and powerful spiritual forces are making their way into therapeutic understanding.Are you a therapist who wants to develop your spiritual practice and incorporate these skills into your work with clients? Are you a client who wants to be met as your whole self in therapy, including your spiritual and energetic consciousness? Either way, this episode is for you. Furkhan shares his insights on how spirituality can be integrated into therapy, enabling individuals to navigate life's complexities with clarity and resilience.About Furkhan Dandia:After over 20 years of experience in the corporate world, Furkhan pivoted to pursue a calling in the therapeutic space. Alongside his work in addiction counseling, anger management, and entrepreneurial support, he holds a master's in Counseling Psychology and currently hosts EZ Conversations, a podcast focused on health and wellness. His approach to therapy is deeply rooted in the belief that true resilience and healing emerge when individuals connect with a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. He views adversity not as a barrier but as a doorway to growth—an opportunity to cultivate gratitude, humility, and inner strength. Furkhan emphasizes spirituality as a core element in his work, helping clients move beyond surface-level concerns to find purpose in their experiences and struggles. His goal is to guide individuals to recognize their own resilience, even in the face of life's toughest challenges, and to live from a place of profound gratitude.

In this powerful episode of The Super Human Life, Coach Frank Rich sits down with author and licensed professional counselor Michael John Cusick to explore the deep connection between addiction, intimacy, and the search for God. Michael unpacks how pornography creates an illusion of connection while masking a deeper longing for intimacy. He reveals how all addictions can be seen as a pursuit of false intimacy and discusses the critical role that community plays in healing. The conversation also delves into the impact of mother wounds on men's relationships and their susceptibility to addiction, as well as the common misconception that marriage can "fix" addiction. Michael shares his personal journey from addiction to healing, offering wisdom for men navigating shame, trauma, and emotional disconnection. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking true freedom from addiction and emotional struggles. Michael emphasizes the importance of connection, vulnerability, and identity in the healing process, while also addressing the unique challenges individuals face within faith communities. Key Takeaways: ✅ Addiction is often a symptom of a deeper longing—one rooted in the search for connection and meaning ✅ Sexual desire is tied to a longing for transcendence and union with God. ✅ Pornography offers an illusion of intimacy but lacks real connection. ✅ Many addictions stem from a need for false intimacy. ✅ Community is essential for true recovery and transformation. ✅ Platforms like OnlyFans create a deceptive sense of real relationships. ✅ Mother wounds can drive men toward unhealthy sources of tenderness and validation. ✅ Marriage does not automatically resolve addiction—healing is a journey of self-discovery and connection. ✅ Sobriety is different from freedom; true freedom is a change in desire, not just behavior. ✅ Shame is one of the biggest barriers to healing and must be addressed for real transformation. About Michael John Cusick Michael John Cusick is a Licensed Professional Counselor, spiritual director, speaker, and author dedicated to helping men find true healing from addiction and emotional struggles. His books include Sacred Attachment: Escaping Spiritual Exhaustion and Trusting in Divine Love and Surfing for God: Discovering the Divine Desire Beneath Sexual Struggle.

Growing up in a small, remote, conservative town in Manitoba Alayna didn't even know that women could be gay... It wasn't a thing she even thought was possible. She was boy crazy in school to the point where her parents and teachers were a bit concerned. Today she takes us on her beautiful and complicated journey of discovering her own sexuality and ultimately coming out as gay when she was 29. Along the way Alayna was in a 10-year relationship with her boyfriend, explored polyamory, thought she was bisexual, and then slowly realized that she wasn't bisexual and that polyamory wasn't for her. Alayna's story is so powerful as she shows us how hard it can be to overcome the shame and societal expectations around our sexuality and relationships. Alayna described herself on her YouTube Channel better than we ever could...

Are you struggling to connect with your teen amidst the chaos of modern parenting? Do you feel like the constant demands of academics, extracurriculars, and social media have created a wall between you and your child? If so, this episode of Power Your Parenting: Mom's the Teen Podcast with Colleen O'Grady and guest Susan Caso offers invaluable insights into building trust and fostering meaningful relationships with your teen. In this episode, Colleen and Susan explore the challenges of parenting in today's high-pressure world and emphasize the importance of creating emotional safety and connectedness at home. They discuss how critical it is for teens to feel a sense of belonging and trust in their parents, not just as enforcers of rules but as compassionate guides who see and accept them for who they are. The conversation highlights the difference between addressing behavior and unconditionally accepting your child as a person. The hosts also delve into the concept of “secure attachment,” which can be nurtured through intentional listening, emotional regulation, and moments of true connection—even in the midst of life's busyness. Through relatable examples and practical advice, the podcast equips parents to create an environment where their teens feel safe to be open and transparent. Susan Caso, MA, LPC, helps people find the feeling of connectedness that creates heartfelt interactions. A sought-after therapist, consultant, and speaker with over twenty years in clinical practice, Susan has helped parents, teens, couples, and families create emotional safety to build stronger relationships.

Separating the person from the behavior allows you to address issues without damaging the relationship. Listen to understand, not to fix: When teens come to you with concerns, resist the urge to jump straight into problem-solving. Instead, focus on listening, validating their emotions, and empathizing with their experience to build trust and connection. Model emotional regulation and introspection: Your ability to handle stress and reflect on your emotions directly impacts your teen. By staying calm and self-aware, you create a safe space where your teen feels encouraged to share and grow.

How should we treat people who may not meet the threshold for a particular mental illness diagnosis but who nevertheless exhibit some of the symptoms of that illness? How can partners form good relationships with people suffering from BPD? How can you help a person suffering from BPD in a moment of crisis? Why is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) the best treatment option for BPD? What does DBT teach? What are some DBT techniques that work especially well for people with BPD? What is "quiet" BPD?
