We dive into the interconnected relationship between the mind, body, and soul and how aligning all three can unlock the manifestation of your deepest desires. We explore the non-linear path of self-growth, the power of somatic awareness, and what it actually means to be in energetic alignment.

This isn't about doing more. It's about doing the inner work that sustains outer results. Key Takeaways: ✨ How the mind, body, and soul each play a unique role in manifestation ✨ Real-life experiences with burnout and the practices that helped with recovery ✨ Why self-growth is not linear and how to embrace the in-between moments ✨ The role of energy healing, NLP, and EMDR in releasing internal blocks ✨ How somatic work can reveal what mindset work alone cannot ✨ A grounded look at authentic pricing strategies for service-based entrepreneurs This episode is for you if you've been doing the mindset work but still feel stuck, or if you're seeking a more embodied and soul-aligned approach to growth and success.

A path to healing is always possible, says Asher Beckwitt. As both a trauma coach and a sexual abuse survivor, she understands that each journey is an individual one. Asher's own journey began with years of talk therapy, which laid the foundation for healing. However, it was the introduction of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy that marked a significant turning point. This innovative therapy helped Asher neutralize the trauma, allowing her to recall past experiences from a place of neutrality rather than reactivity. EMDR, coupled with somatic healing practices, enabled her to reconnect with her body and release stored trauma energy. This podcast goes beyond sexual abuse and offers a broad base of possible healing modalities and requirements, ranging from safe places to meditations and beyond.

We want to work with YOU! 15 Minute Free Consultation  Start healing now! Set up a Coaching Session   Welcome to another insightful episode of Mr. and Mrs. Therapy, where licensed therapists Tim and Ruth Olson guide you through the complexities of healing from trauma and fostering healthy relationships. In this episode, the focus is on reclaiming faith through the powerful trauma therapy known as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). Building upon their previous discussion on religious trauma, the Olsons delve deeper into how EMDR can facilitate healing by separating negative religious experiences from one's relationship with God. Understand how EMDR works by helping the brain to reprocess and release painful memories and beliefs such as feeling unlovable unless perfect, or fearing divine punishment for not following every rule. The discussion touches on how childhood experiences or sermons engrained negative beliefs that affect one's interactions not only with God but also with other people. As these beliefs are addressed and reprocessed, they lose their grip, leading to more positive interactions and a healthier spiritual life. Drawing from real-life examples and client experiences, Tim and Ruth explain how EMDR is not about altering faith but about removing emotional barriers that hinder spiritual growth. Discover the transformative moments when clients report feeling God's presence during EMDR sessions, experiencing newfound connections and insights related to their spiritual journeys. The episode also addresses common concerns from Christian individuals regarding EMDR, clarifying misconceptions and explaining its compatibility with Christian beliefs. Whether you're dealing with religious trauma or general trauma, learn how EMDR could help in restoring peace, embracing grace, and distinguishing between fallible human actions and divine love. Join the Olsons as they explore key mental shifts facilitated by EMDR, such as redefining God's character from a punisher to a protector, and replacing the need for perfection with an understanding of divine grace. Episode highlights include practical exercises, like reframing, which can aid healing, alongside the assurance that EMDR therapy can be a holy work towards renewing one's spiritual life. So, if feelings of fear and anxiety dominate your faith journey, this episode provides informational insights into how EMDR can help you dismantle those barriers. Stay tuned to learn about the options available for starting your own EMDR therapy journey. [Remember, our podcast is here to spark conversations and offer insights.

(5:42) • Sexually violent predators are people who have committed some type of sex crime. They have been deemed to have some type of mental illness or defect, and there's a belief that they will commit another sex crime. (15:59) • Whenever we sleep – if you're a normal, average healthy sleeper, you should go through various sleep cycles. You should be cycling through light sleep, deep sleep, REM sleep and you're gonna be cycling through these several times a night. (23:18) • REM sleep (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, is most famous for having dreams. (23:44) • Folks who have problems sleeping – there are so many things you can to help yourself. (38:12) • Going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time every morning. This is key. (39:4) • We are inducing our own jet lag when we go from 6am Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then go down to 9am on Saturday and Sunday. The brain gets very confused.  (43:11) • I have been a psychologist for the FBI for 5 years now, and that entire time I will be helping people with trauma. I'm certified with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and brain spotting. I love those, but I also help people with sleep. (45:10) • In my work, folks experience things and see things that we should not be asking normal human beings to see. (47:04) • [Marcus] When you're doing your job and you're runnin' and gunnin' - no matter what it is - and it tarts creeping into your dreams, that means your database is full. (50:25) • Taking time to reflect either alone or with someone you trust: How is this impacting me? What's happening? (51:36) • I have a book coming out on sleep coming out on sleep. It's called The Sleep Advantage. (56:02) • If you're really getting good sleep, it can impact your decision-making, and your reaction time. It can make you the best of the best; it can impact your performance.

Trauma can cast a long shadow, but intensive therapy offers a way to step into the light and reclaim your life. Combining the transformative power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) with the practicality of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), this approach creates a dynamic path to healing that is both comprehensive and empowering.At the heart of EMDR is a remarkable technique that uses bilateral stimulation—like guided eye movements—to gently and effectively process distressing memories. It helps rewire the brain's response to trauma, allowing you to release the hold that past experiences may have on your present. The result? A clearer, more peaceful mind, free from the weight of unresolved pain.On the other hand, CBT steps in as the ultimate toolkit for building resilience and emotional strength. By identifying negative thought patterns and replacing them with healthier, more constructive ways of thinking, CBT equips you to manage anxiety, depression, and other challenges that can accompany trauma. It's a therapy that doesn't just heal—it empowers, giving you the skills to navigate life's complexities with confidence and clarity.When used together, EMDR and CBT complement each other beautifully. While EMDR focuses on resolving deep-rooted emotional scars, CBT provides the practical strategies needed to cope, thrive, and rebuild. Intensive therapy condenses this powerful combination into a focused timeframe, offering faster relief and profound transformation. It's a journey of self-discovery, growth, and renewed strength—a chance to turn the page and start a new chapter.Join me on this empowering journey as we unravel the complexities of traumaand provide insights, resources, and hope for those seeking healing and transformation.You can always drop me an email to ⁠⁠podcast@online-cbt.com⁠⁠ if you want to have a request or visit my website by clicking thehashtag ⁠⁠#onlinetherapy⁠⁠Please follow me or like the podcast if you wish, and shareit with others.Hope you enjoy!Jaime (CBT and EMDR therapist) #UnderstandingTrauma #HealingJourney #MentalHealthMatters #BreakTheSilence #SeekingSupport #TraumaInformedCare #Empowerment #FindingHope ⁠#WellbeingandMentalHealthforOrganisations ⁠⁠#TraumaticEventSupportforOrganisation⁠⁠#CrisisandTraumaticEpisodeforOrganisations⁠⁠#industrialtraumasupport⁠ ⁠#staffwellbeingservices⁠ ⁠#onlinementalhealthsupportforemployeesImage by pikisuperstar - FreePik.com

As part of our "Surviving and Thriving After Trauma" series, Austin brings in special guest Dr. Mark Pfuetze, an EMDR trained therapist and Covenant Seminary professor, to explain how the body stores trauma and how EMDR can help you manage distressing memories, experiences, and thoughts that haunt you, shame you, or pull you from the present back into the past.

Breaking Free: How to Get Unstuck from Trauma and Reclaim Your Life   In this milestone 52nd episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis discuss one of the most challenging aspects of healing—getting stuck in trauma. Many individuals feel trapped in past experiences, unable to move forward despite years of therapy or self-help efforts.

Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn explore why people remain stuck and share proven strategies for processing and releasing trauma through evidence-based therapies. They emphasize the importance of body-based approaches, neuroplasticity, and the hope that real healing is possible.   Listeners will also hear about the Human Intimacy Conference (March 14-15, 2025), featuring leading experts in the field.

Hey Warriors Unmasked family, Chuck here! I'm so excited to bring you this incredible conversation with Robert Grigore, a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Certified EMDR Therapist, and author of You Need Therapy: EMDR – Real People with Real Problems Getting Real Help. If you've ever wondered how trauma impacts your mental health or how you can heal from it, this episode is a must-listen. Robert's groundbreaking work in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy has transformed the lives of over 1,000 individuals, including CEOs, athletes, and even high-profile celebrities. In this episode, we dive deep into how EMDR works, why it's so effective, and how it can help you overcome the emotional baggage that might be holding you back. Key Takeaways from Robert's Insights: What is EMDR? Robert explains how EMDR isn't just another talk therapy—it's a structured process that helps you rewire your brain and nervous system. By addressing the root causes of trauma, EMDR allows you to release the emotional weight of past experiences in as little as three days. Understanding Trauma: Trauma isn't just about major life events; it can stem from smaller, repeated experiences that make us feel powerless. Robert shares how these "small T traumas" can shape our beliefs and patterns, often without us realizing it. Breaking Patterns: Robert highlights how our subconscious patterns can keep us stuck in cycles of anxiety, depression, or self-doubt. EMDR helps identify and reprogram these patterns, freeing us to live a more joyful and fulfilling life. Chuck's Personal Experience with EMDR During this conversation, I shared my own transformative journey with EMDR therapy and how Robert's work helped me let go of decades-old emotional pain. After just a few sessions, I can confidently say that past traumas no longer hold power over me. If you've been carrying a heavy emotional load, I encourage you to explore this life-changing therapy. Robert's Mission and Resources Robert's passion for mental health shines through in his work as the founder of Grigore Counselling & Associates and his podcast, The Mental Health Show with Robert Grigore. Through his innovative Total Immersion EMDR approach, Robert has redefined how quickly and effectively people can heal. His book, You Need Therapy, is a fantastic resource for anyone curious about EMDR or seeking to better understand their mental health.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain the important role that sleep and dreams have in learning, regulating emotions, and recovering from trauma. I discuss how dreams during rapid eye movement (REM) sleep contribute to emotional learning and the processing of traumatic experiences. I also discuss the similarities of REM dreams to clinical treatments like ketamine and EMDR therapy. I explain how non-REM dreams function differently to support other types of learning. Additionally, I describe science-backed strategies to optimize both types of sleep for improved learning, mood and emotional regulation. Huberman Lab Essentials are short episodes (approximately 30 minutes) focused on essential science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials will be released every Thursday, and our full-length episodes will still be released every Monday. Read the full show notes for this episode at hubermanlab.com.

Her mission is to provide tailored therapeutic approaches that foster resilience and emotional well-being. Reach: https://www.laureltherapy.net/    Key Takeaways: What is EMDR? EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) uses bilateral stimulation, such as side-to-side eye movements, tapping, or sounds, to help the brain process stuck trauma memories and recategorize them into neutral experiences. It doesn't erase traumatic memories but helps reduce their emotional charge. How EMDR Works: Developed by Francine Shapiro, EMDR helps the brain create new neural pathways, allowing individuals to think about past traumas without triggering intense physical or emotional reactions. The therapy integrates guided recollections of trauma with bilateral stimulation to aid memory processing. Who Can Benefit from EMDR: Most people can benefit, but readiness is crucial. Individuals need foundational coping skills before beginning. EMDR may be less effective for those heavily reliant on substances, with specific medication interactions, or with highly literal thinking patterns, though outcomes can vary. Common Misconceptions: EMDR may sound "magical" or implausible, but it is a well-researched and evidence-backed therapy. It is not a quick fix; successful outcomes require proper preparation and readiness. Important Considerations: Proper resourcing, such as developing coping mechanisms, is essential before diving into the reprocessing phase. EMDR may not suit everyone at every life stage, particularly those with high-risk pregnancies or certain neurodivergent conditions. This episode offers a compassionate and enlightening guide to a therapy that is changing lives, making it an essential listen for anyone curious about innovative approaches to trauma recovery.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

There were quite a few interpreters he was trying to help. But this family meant so much to him. He had done very well for a while.  The PTSD really didn't show for about 5 years really.  But then things turned.  I am quite certain he had a traumatic brain injury as well.  He moved out to LA 7 years ago, lived as a homeless man for about 4 years, became addicted to street drugs…even went to jail for a few months.  He finally accepted that he needed help and was working with the VA in LA.  They got him an apartment through subsidized housing that he loved and a monthly income.  They helped him with medical and dental issues too.  We really thought he had turned the corner.  It was a shock to all of us when he took his own life.  He had been making so many plans with so many people.  We spend the first week just sending screenshots and emails to each other from him…even from the day before his suicide.  None of us saw anything that gave us any concern.  He was even starting a foundation with the interpreter…had just finished building the website and getting 501C3 status and a friend of his had made the foundation logo for him.” Shared by his mother, Vicki  Places he called home: Rhode Island and California Resting Place: The Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Exeter, RI ----------------------------------------------------------- You can contact Jackie through the Hinterland Health Resort web site: https://hinterlandhealthretreat.com/   You can find Paul - The Rhode Runner in the following places: Twitter: @TheRhodeRunner Instagram: @TheRhodeRunner Facebook   Inspiring Journeys can be found on: InspiringJourneys.net Instagram: @InspiringJourneysPod Facebook   You can also download and subscribe to the Inspiring Journeys Podcast at: Apple Podcasts iHeartRadio Spotify

Get ready for a fascinating chat with Dr. Danielle Hiestand, LMFT, CEDS-S, where we're digging into the power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) and Polyvagal Theory to unlock new pathways in trauma and eating disorder recovery! Dr. Hiestand breaks down how these tools aren't just fancy words but game-changers for the nervous system, helping people find calm, reconnect, and heal in profound ways. Whether you're curious or already a fan of these approaches, this episode is packed with mind-blowing insights, practical takeaways, and a dash of nerdy neuroscience fun. HEAR FROM DANIELLE ABOUT DANIELLE! I have been passionate about learning and helping others most of my life. I am originally from Northern California and was overjoyed to study at University of California, San Diego and to live near the ocean. After receiving my Bachelors of Science in Cognitive Science, Neuroscience and Psychology I stayed in San Diego to complete my doctorate in Marital and Family Therapy at Alliant International University and become a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT #48529). ​While at college, I took a course on eating disorders and began to volunteer with a program that focused on eating disorder prevention. I knew I wanted to be a therapist and help people heal and recover from their eating disorders. I planted my roots in San Diego and began working at an eating disorder treatment program. It was clear early on that most of my clients had a trauma history. Some had never called what they went through “trauma,” but could see how their life experiences had contributed to the development of their eating disorder. Others knew they had gone through something that still bothered them in the present, but didn't know how to talk about it or how to heal.  ​During this time I acquired extensive experience treating anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, complex PTSD, dissociative disorders, depression, and anxiety. I also began my training in EMDR therapy; a treatment that has become crucial to my therapeutic approach. To help clients on their journey toward healing I also utilize systems theory, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness. My overall goal is to work collaboratively with clients in order to honor their treatment goals. In 2013 Kelly Hinds, RDN and I created Savor Podcast. For three years we recorded episodes on nutrition, body image, mindfulness, yoga, eating disorders, dieting, EMDR therapy and beyond. Past Savor podcast episodes are available here. Before starting my family, I was an adjunct professor at University of California, San Diego, Alliant International University and San Diego State University. I taught classes on eating disorders, stress management, social psychology, and assessment. After my family started to grow, I decided to slow down and work part-time in my Mission Valley private practice in San Diego, California.  I work toward providing a calm, safe and grounded space for you to feel comfortable sharing your successes and your struggles. A journey back to self always has ups, downs and surprises. Together we can navigate how to find tools and strategies to help you cope and make space for yourself. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my husband and two daughters. I also love swimming, paddle boarding, and hiking.

In this episode of Stronger Marriage Connection, Dr. Liz Hale and Dr. Dave Schramm talk with licensed clinical social worker Amelia Hopkin about the emotional and physical struggles associated with infertility. Amelia shares how fertility issues impact relationships, the role offamily support, and the healing power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy) for couples dealing with reproductive health trauma. She also provides guidance on navigating infertility treatments and offers valuable resources for those on this difficult journey. About Amelia Hopkin: Amelia Hopkin has spent the last 23 years providing help and building relationships with medical providers, community organizations, researchers, educators and most importantly, families who experience one of the hardest kinds of experiences... Infant or pregnancy loss, infertility, unexpected birth experiences, various degrees and types of postpartum depression, NICU stays as well as sexual or health related trauma. She has been a speaker and trainer at both national and international conferences (ask her about speaking to the UN and her month at the HRC!), a published researcher, is certified in EMDR and trained in ART (the therapy kind, she's a horrible artist and needs to label her stick figures). As one of the only trained EMDR intensive providers in the state of Utah, she helps those who have limited time and significant trauma find deep and meaningful healing. Click on the EMDR tab for more info on that. When not in the office, Amelia may be getting in over her head on a DIY project, reading books, dreaming up a new travel adventure, finding nature, looking for ways to avoid doing laundry or trying out a new restaurant or recipe. Insights: Amelia: "...if you're experiencing fertility struggles, you are not alone, that number is one in six. There are some really fantastic resources." Liz: "the thought of getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, right with whatever it is that is troubling us..." Dave" "I think my takeaway the day really is the no shame, no blaming of yourself through this journey, I'm sure, so easily to turn inward and then to have those suffocating feelings that can feel overwhelming, that affect your marriage and your outlook, your life, your eating, sleeping every this will affect your lifein so many ways. I hope people won't go there or stay there too long. Did you realize this is nothing you did you know anything so not that. Avoid that blame and shame game. Keep those eyes up and looking for resources and help."

Episode 80: in this special episode of Heartline, the tables are turned as Dr. Andrea Austin takes the guest seat to discuss her newly released book, "Revitalized: A Guidebook to Following Your Healing Heartline." Hosted by Dr. Resa E. Lewiss, this conversation delves into the heart of Dr. Austin's transformative journey and the insights she shares in her book. Dr. Austin opens up about the profound impact writing this book has had on her personal growth and professional outlook. She describes it as "the biggest gift to myself," highlighting how the process allowed her to reflect, connect past experiences to the present, and forgive herself for past mistakes. A Unique Approach to Healthcare Challenges What sets "Revitalized" apart from other self-help books is its focus on empathetic individuals in healthcare. Dr. Austin addresses the struggles of those who find themselves compromising their values in a dysfunctional system, offering a path to maintain integrity and compassion without feeling drained. The book incorporates self-reflection questions at the end of each chapter, providing readers with a form of self-coaching. This interactive approach empowers healthcare professionals to harness their agency and navigate the complexities of their field. Exploring Burnout and Moral Injury Dr. Austin dives into the nuances of burnout and moral injury in healthcare. She uses the metaphor of a tree to illustrate how burnout is merely the visible symptom, while the root causes - such as moral injury or gender bias - lie deeper beneath the surface. Personal Stories and Vulnerability Throughout the conversation, Dr. Austin shares personal anecdotes that resonate deeply: Her experience with "living apart together" during a career move The impact of changing institutions on professional growth The significance of her relationship with her hairstylist and other professionals that have contributed to her healing These stories highlight the importance of self-care, breaking cycles of negative self-talk, and finding unexpected sources of support in one's healing journey. Practical Advice for Healing For those beginning their own healing journey, Dr. Austin recommends starting with the book "What Happened to You?" by Oprah and Bruce Perry. She emphasizes the importance of understanding trauma, not only for personal growth but also for becoming a more empathetic healthcare provider. Dr. Austin also discusses the power of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and other somatic approaches in processing trauma, highlighting the limitations of talk therapy alone. A Call to Action As the conversation draws to a close, Dr. Austin expresses her concerns about the current state of societal division and encourages listeners to engage in active listening, connect with others, and use their agency to vote and make a positive impact in their communities and workplaces. This episode offers a heartfelt and insightful look into Dr. Andrea Austin's journey of self-discovery and her mission to help others in healthcare find their path to revitalization. It's a must-listen for anyone seeking to navigate the challenges of the healthcare system while maintaining their compassion and integrity.

ounseling Associates and a therapist specialized in porn & sex addiction, betrayal trauma for partners, and childhood trauma. David's work focuses on helping men in these areas as well as assertiveness training. David always had an interest in people as he watched his mom as a hairstylist listen to her clients. He earned his undergraduate degree in Psychology but found himself in sales after college. After some psychological testing, he learned that he would be a good therapist, so he returned to school to get his Master's in Counseling. His career started off in home therapy by using a system approach of not only working with the child but with the parents as well. He got into addictions work focuses on substances but shifted gears when he had a client with a porn addiction. This client fueled David to learn more. David trained at the International Institute of Trauma and Addiction Professionals as well as complementary methods of EMDR and Brainspotting. "You can think of counseling like that; someone is going to listen to you, not judge you, hear you out, and try to work together with you like a coach even though they may do it a little deeper to be able to help you with those deper wounds and live a life you really want to live." Through his work he has found that men put themselves through a lot of pressure to have it all and know it all which could lead to engaging in unhealthy behaviors. His work helps men shed these behaviors and discover the root of what has happened to them. He believes that porn addiction is easy to slip into based on the 3 As; Anonymity, Accessibility, and Affordability. The latest research has found that the highest users of porn are ages 12-17. Seeking treatment is hard for men because they don't get vulnerable with their friends and portrayal of men in society as "tough guys." For many men, it feels embarrassing and scary to get help and for some they worry it will affect their job status. As a society, boys and men are raised and told to let it go, move on, and it will be ok making it even more hard to ask for help. David has found that the men he work with fear not being enough and have never learned to ask for their needs to be met. "A lot of men are taught to stuff their feelings, suck it in, be happy, that's the only approved emotion, they can be angry if they are on the soccer field or football field but nowhere else, and that their feelings don't matter, that's for girls, and that could be so far from the truth. It's a human thing." Gabor Mate's definition of addiction is "a behavior or substance a person does that in the short term provides relief, pleasure, and escape. In the long term, it provides more problems and consequences coupled with the inability to stop it or stop it for long." David has seen sex and porn addiction come in many forms such as massage parlors, strip clubs, etc. When men first start treatment with him, they determine if the behavior is a problem and then assess how deep of a problem it is and what level of care is appropriate for him. From there, he helps them stop the behavior and assess the needs of their spouse and partner as well as getting them support if needed. Finally he helps them develop coping skills and learn how to set boundaries. A unique offering that Charlotte Counseling Associates offers is therapy groups for men to connect and help support one another. David also offers intensive options such as half-day, full-day, or up to 3 days of work. He strongly believes in meeting people where they are and finding the right match of a therapist with his full staff. Room to Heal is another resource in Charlotte that many of his clients have taken advantage of as a residential center for those with sex and porn addiction. "These guys just don't know how to express their needs and that's why they get caught up in these unhealthy behaviors. They are trying to meet their needs that provide an escape from the pain or maybe a dopamine boost in the short term because of the pressure." David believes it is important for the betrayed partner to seek treatment whether they stay in the relationship or not. A common trend that he has witnessed is the person who is addicted gets all of the attention and support. The partner needs support as well as to know it's not their fault. They may have PTSD and need trauma processing as well as work on setting boundaries and utilizing coping skills. His practice has a betrayed partners group as well. He can facilitate a formal disclosure session where the partner who is addicted will share their sexual timeline and the betrayed partner can ask questions. He has found that this type of session can be helpful in the betrayed partner deciding the future of the relationship. David describes talk therapy as utilizing the prefrontal cortex to explore thoughts and feelings and provides immediate relief. Some of the deeper methods he uses of EMDR and Brainspotting work on resourcing which is the ability to self-soothe. He describes EMDR(Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a brain-body therapy that gets into the deeper parts of the brain attached to our nervous system. In this work, the client reprocesses traumatic material to clen up the wound and make it not as painful while introducing a positive belief. He describes Brainspotting as more of an eye-fixation modality where they have found that where you look is how you feel. The practitioner finds a point in space that is most activating and talking it out as the wound dissipates. David finds that assertiveness training includes learning how to be calm, direct, and respectful in communication. David has followed Robert Glover's work and book called "No More Mr. Nice Guy." The idea is that men do a lot of nice things but don't meet their own needs. Inevitably the get run down and don't do nice things such as yelling, shutting down, pornography, etc. These men don't feel they have the right to ask for what they need. This work can be done in individual therapy or his assertiveness groups. David has many things that keep him grounded outside of his work as a therapist. Mostly therapy and being a part of therapist support groups, his faith, family, music, meditation, journaling, being in nature, working out, and yoga. He would like to Heal Charlotte by spreading the positive message about therapy and provide the community with education on sex and porn addiction. You can connect with David and his practice, Charlotte Counseling Associates, through their website, by calling them at 980-224-3233, emailing admin@charlottecounselors.com, or on Instagram, Facebook, and Linkedin.
