In this episode, I speak with Karen Sprinkel Ancelet about her path to integrating trauma-informed, psychedelic-assisted therapy into her clinical practice. Karen shares how, early in her career, she worked with families whose loved ones had been murdered by a serial killer. She found that the models she had been trained in were not enough to address the profound spiritual trauma her clients experienced as they struggled to make sense of such horrific loss. This realization led Karen to begin practicing Buddhism and eventually to live in Asia, where she deepened her understanding of human suffering. While working with people from Thailand and Tibet who had endured trauma, she witnessed how cultural perspectives shape the ways we make meaning out of tragedy and resilience. She also facilitated group therapy for child sexual abuse survivors, where she discovered that while some approaches were effective for certain individuals, they were not universally helpful. From these experiences, Karen came to conceptualize trauma as impacting the mind, body, and spirit, all of which must be addressed in healing. She describes her initial skepticism toward psychedelic therapies, coming from a place of purism, but shares how her perspective shifted as she learned more about their effectiveness. Immersing herself in advanced training and certification, Karen began working with clients using psychedelics in therapeutic contexts. Karen also discusses the breadth of her training across multiple trauma-healing approaches. She highlights Somatic modalities such as Somatic Experiencing, Hakomi, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy; Desensitization-based methods like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Brainspotting; and Parts models including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Voice Dialogue, and Ego State Therapy. She explains how client factors often determine which approach is the best fit for a given individual. Throughout our conversation, Karen emphasizes her commitment to helping clients heal from PTSD as efficiently as possible. This integrative vision inspired her book, The Thriving Self: A New Paradigm for Healing the Mind, Body and Spirit and Moving Beyond It, which offers clients a framework to move toward healing without spending years in therapy. Karen Sprinkel Ancelet, LMFT is a licensed psychotherapist with more than 30 years of clinical experience, practicing in California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and Michigan. She specializes in trauma-informed care and integrates a broad range of evidence-based modalities, including EMDR, Brainspotting, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (Level 3), and HeartMath. Karen is also a Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) provider with advanced psychedelic training through MAPS, Fluence, and Three Cups. She graduated with a Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies and Research from CIIS. In addition to her clinical practice, she serves as a consultant, educator, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and Continuing Education provider. A pivotal chapter in Karen's life was her time living in Asia, where she conducted her master's research on trauma healing following violent crimes in Tibet, Southeast Asia, and the United States. Deeply impacted by these findings, she returned to Asia for several years to further her exploration. Today, Karen weaves together the ancient wisdom of meditation and mindfulness with contemporary approaches such as EMDR, Brainspotting, Flash, EFT, IFS, and Somatic Experiencing to guide and support her clients in their healing journey.

gedachten verzetten in de middagzon.En: Birds sang cheerfully outside, in the green inner garden, where the patients often distracted their thoughts in the afternoon sun.Nl: Anouk zat stil op een lichtblauwe stoel.En: Anouk sat quietly on a light blue chair.Nl: Haar ogen volgden de patronen van de zonnestralen op de vloer.En: Her eyes followed the patterns of the sunbeams on the floor.Nl: In

often captivated the group.Nl: Hij was ook echter iemand die vocht tegen de donkere wolken van depressie.En: However, he was also someone who fought against the dark clouds of depression.Nl: Elise, de zorgzame therapeut, opende de sessie met een vriendelijke glimlach.En: Elise, the caring therapist, opened the session with a friendly smile.Nl: "Vandaag wil ik dat we focussen op het delen van gevoelens," zei ze.En: "Today, I want us to focus on sharing feelings," she said.Nl: Haar stem was kalm en rustgevend.En: Her voice was calm and soothing.Nl: Anouk, meestal teruggetrokken, voelde een vreemde aantrekkingskracht naar Maarten.En: Anouk, usually withdrawn, felt a strange attraction to Maarten.Nl: Hij leek haar te begrijpen zonder woorden.En: He seemed to understand her without words.Nl: Maar het idee om zich open te stellen maakte haar zenuwachtig.En: But the idea of opening up made her nervous.Nl: Ze had in het verleden genoeg pijn geleden en was op haar hoede om zich weer kwetsbaar op te stellen.En: She had suffered enough pain in the past and was wary of making herself vulnerable again.Nl: Tijdens de sessie keek Maarten af en toe richting Anouk.En: During the session, Maarten occasionally glanced at Anouk.Nl: Er was iets in zijn blik dat geruststellend was.En: There was something reassuring in his gaze.Nl: Toen het haar beurt was om te spreken, voelde ze een mix

verhaal.En: With a shaky breath, Anouk told her story.Nl: Over de wonden die niet zichtbaar waren, maar diep in haar ziel gesneden.En: About the wounds that were not visible but cut deep into her soul.Nl: De groep luisterde stil, ieder geraakt door haar eerlijkheid.En: The group listened silently, each one touched by her honesty.Nl: Na afloop van haar verhaal, was er een hartelijke stilte.En:

talked about how hard it was to choose hope every day.Nl: Zijn woorden vonden hun weg naar Anouks hart.En: His words found their way to Anouk's heart.Nl: Er was begrip en erkenning tussen hen.En: There was understanding and recognition between them.Nl: Een stille belofte om elkaar te steunen.En: A silent promise to support each other.Nl: Na de sessie blijven Anouk en Maarten nog even in de zaal.En: After the session, Anouk and Maarten stayed a little longer in the room.Nl: Maarten glimlachte zacht.En: Maarten smiled softly.Nl: "Dank je voor je verhaal.En: "Thank you for your story.Nl: Het helpt meer dan je beseft," zei hij.En: It helps more than you realize," he said.Nl: Anouk knikte, de zware last die ze droeg leek lichter.En: Anouk nodded, the heavy burden she carried seemed lighter.Nl: "Misschien kunnen we elkaar helpen," stelde ze voor.En: "Maybe we can help each other," she suggested.Nl: "Buiten de therapie.En: "Outside of therapy.Nl: Gewoon...En: Just...Nl: vrienden."En: friends."Nl: Maarten stemde in.En: Maarten agreed.Nl: De zomerzon scheen warm op hun gezichten door de grote ramen.En: The summer sun shone warmly on their faces through the large windows.Nl: Een nieuwe start, een kans om te helen, niet alleen, maar samen.En: A new beginning, a chance to heal, not alone, but together.Nl: Ze wisten beiden dat de weg lang was, maar niet meer zo eenzaam.En: They both knew the road was long, but no longer so lonely.Nl: Daar, in de zonnige ruimte van de psychiatrische afdeling, begon een vriendschap die hen beide zou helpen groeien en genezen.En: There, in the sunny space of the psychiatric ward, began a friendship that would help them both grow and heal.Nl: Anouk voelde een nieuwe openheid in haar hart.En: Anouk felt a new

This is your journey too! We want to hear from you. As we explore categories like 'J for Jealousy' 'L for Loss,' 'M for Memory,' and so many others, we know these topics touch all our lives.Think about it:J for Jealousy: What has been the most transformative part of your personal growth with jealousy, and how did you navigate it?L for Loss: Beyond the obvious, what are some 'hidden' forms of loss you've experienced, and how did you cope?M for Memory: How do your earliest memories, good or bad, still shape who you are today?Your insights, your questions, your experiences – they don't just enrich our discussions; they make them truly holistic.

He is a self-described Neo-pagan, Tibeten buddhist,Taoist, agnostic, quantum physicist & mystic, all rolled into some strange amalgam. Tom is also a renowned sound alchemist, psychotherapist and shaman. He is regarded as a pioneer in the field of psycho-acoustic research and is an acclaimed practitioner of psycho-acoustic healing. He is dedicated to integrating modern science with ancient mysticism through the power of sound, and at the inception of his career, he was an aspiring country musician, however, in the early stages of his life, he encountered a series of mystical experiences that forever altered his life path. Using his nearly four-octave range voice, in tandem with other acoustic instruments, he creates deeply altered states of consciousness that access the brain's unused potentials for heightened creativity and spiritual insight. Tom is also an accomplished writer & filmmaker and in 2014 he produced the movie “Song of the New Earth” which is a documentary that looks at his work in the field of sound healing & psycho-spiritual transformation.

In this episode, I engage in a shared-interest conversation with Dr. David Mintz, a psychiatrist with over 30 years of experience at the Austen Riggs Center, about his book Psychodynamic Psychopharmacology: Caring for the Treatment-Resistant Patient. Mintz explores the integration of psychodynamic principles into medication prescribing, emphasizing that psychiatric treatments are not purely biomedical but profoundly shaped by meaning, symbolism, attachment and interpersonal dynamics. Drawing from his work with treatment-resistant patients, often those with histories of early adversity, the discussion distills how psychodynamics influence medication efficacy, adherence, and overall recovery. By listening to this episode, you can earn 1.25 Psychiatry CME Credits. Link to blog. Link to YouTube video.

Justin Kovanis and I discuss how psychotherapy or clinical counseling is a venture in truth-seeking and aligns profoundly with Christianity. How does therapy function regarding one's faith and seeking after the truth? Justin Kovanis is a Licensed therapist in Cincinnati, licensed in 2023, and is passionate about the power of healing from trauma. He works in private practice and at a Medicaid-funded community mental health clinic.  He can be reached at justin.kovanis@gmail.com  

In this episode, I sit down with Zenobia Morrill, Ph.D., who shares her journey into psychotherapy—from a personal confrontation with existential truth to navigating her family's intergenerational pain. Dr. Morrill reflects on her early experiences as a therapy client, where she encountered traditional frameworks that often fell short, approaches that pathologized pain while ignoring the broader systemic and historical forces at play. Grounded in liberation psychology and critical theory, Dr. Morrill offers a compelling critique of mainstream psychological models that individualize suffering and overlook the impact of power, politics, and culture. We explore how psychotherapy can become a tool for liberation, not by reinforcing institutional norms, but by creating space to challenge and reimagine them in service of opening up possibilities for personhood. Dr. Morrill shares how critical-liberation psychotherapy offers practitioners a framework to question how therapeutic practices may either reinforce alienation or open new paths toward freedom, healing, and fuller participation in society. She reflects on the importance of broadening our range of being, reclaiming repressed parts of the self, and bridging individual pain to collective emancipation. Therapy, she argues, must move beyond static formulations and recognize that social, political, and cultural forces are already present in the room—they are not “add-ons” but essential to the client's lived experience. This approach does not suggest liberation occurs solely within the therapy room, but asks how the institution of therapy itself—its theories, method, and practices—can be used to support liberatory outcomes. Ultimately, Dr. Morrill calls on therapists to resist objectification of clients and of therapy itself—and to reimagine psychotherapy as a dynamic, relational, and contextually grounded space for transformation. Zenobia Morrill, Ph.D., is a critical-liberation psychologist and psychology professor at William James College. She received her doctorate from the University of Massachusetts Boston and completed her pre- and post-doctoral fellowship at the Yale School of Medicine and at Yale Health, Mental Health & Counseling, respectively. Inspired by her personal and professional experiences with the mental health system, Dr. Morrill emphasizes the power in psychological frameworks as the stories we use to understand ourselves, and the risks presented when these frameworks cannot capture the complex existential, sociocultural, familial, physiological, and tacit dimensions of humanity. Her work centers on the belief that psychological healing must account for these broader meaning systems and political structures that shape individual experience. Her research and clinical interests include psychotherapy process, global mental health, qualitative methodology, theory and philosophy, and critical and liberation psychologies. A recipient of the American Psychological Association's Sigmund Koch Award for Early Career Contribution to Psychology, Dr. Morrill's work and Critical-Liberation Psychotherapy model have been recognized and presented internationally.

On the 131st episode of the What is a Good Life? podcast, I'm delighted to welcome our guest, Dave Bingham. Dave is the founder and managing director of True Circles Training Ltd – though he often calls himself ‘an assistant to alchemy'. He's a Trainer, Mentor, and Facilitator in the Way of Council, recognised by the Topa Institute of California and the European Council Network. Since 2009, he has facilitated Council groups in settings ranging from men's circles and prisons to reconciliation programmes and open public groups. Formerly in the tech sector, he led major UK and international projects and contributed to global best practice. He later studied Psychotherapy and Eco-psychotherapy, before completing a multi-year apprenticeship to become one of a small number of Recognised Council Trainers outside the USA. Dave sees Council as an embodied wisdom tradition that fosters human wholeness, connection, and community – medicine for our times.In this conversation, we delve into themes of purpose, alignment, and the transformative practice of the Way of Council. We explore the importance of listening from the heart and authenticity in communication. Dave shares his experiences of the profound impact of creating spaces for emotional expression. This discussion invites us to reflect on depths of relating that I sense most people rarely engage with.For more of Dave's work, check out the following:Website: https://www.truecircles.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-bingham-7b0a95180/Contact me at mark@whatisagood.life if you'd like to explore your own lines of self-inquiry through 1-on-1 coaching, my 5-week group courses, or to discuss experiences I create to stimulate greater trust, communication, and connection, amongst your leadership teams.- For the What is a Good Life? podcast's YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlife/videos- My newsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/- My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/- Exploring one-on-one coaching: https://www.whatisagood.life/p/one-on-one-coaching- What is a Good Life?

“I really think that the purpose is to make space for the unknown, uncertainty, and for our kind of humility in the face of the complexity of our belonging to the physical world. So it's our animality, our physicality, all of that is so complicated and difficult to grapple with. The unknown is uncontrollable and is a huge abyss, as we know, for everybody. I do think that I'm trying to pivot here a little bit towards meeting the patient's attempts to grapple with that unknown.” Episode description:  We begin by examining the assumptions of causality that we humans commonly invoke when faced with physical ailments. Childhood imaginings come forward during such times, and, despite being distressing, they offer comfort in the face of frightening uncertainty. Similarly, analytic theorizing has occasionally suggested certainties in the face of the unknown. This may limit the analytic space, thereby making vulnerability, fears, and new awarenesses less accessible. Sharone presents clinical material from patients with testicular cancer and lymphoma, where their psychogenic theories of etiology interfered with their medical care. We consider the distinction between patients with somatic symptoms and psychosomatic patients. We question the ability of the analytic method to uncover the origins of medical illnesses while emphasizing the importance of recognizing the "particular possibilities of our method."   Our Guest: Sharone Bergner Ph.D. is a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst in full time private practice of psychoanalysis, psychotherapy and clinical supervision in New York City. She is a member and former faculty at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research and is Adjunct Assistant Clinical Professor and a clinical supervisor at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, in the Contemporary Freudian track, where she teaches a course called The Body in Analytic Reverie. She is a member of the International Psychoanalytic Association and the editorial board of The Psychoanalytic Quarterly. She has a special interest in the body/mind in relation to maternal reverie in early development, vitality, embodiment, and medical issues, having worked early in her career in a cancer hospital, with the internal medicine, OBGYN, and dermatology clinics of a large urban teaching hospital, with political refugees and with parent-child pairs.    Recommended Readings: 1.

Dr. Peter Fenner's nondual approach has been transforming psychotherapy and spiritual practice for decades. In this session, he explore why his teachings on nondual awareness have been so effective in areas such as personal growth, mental health, and spiritual realization—and how this radical understanding of consciousness has the potential to profoundly change how we experience life. You'll learn: — The shift from seeking to “being” dissolves suffering and brings peace and freedom — How to integrate nondual awareness into therapy, coaching, and everyday life — There is nothing fundamentally lacking or broken in ourselves — The natural state of pure awareness that is spacious, contentless, and inherently free And more. You can learn more about Dr Fenner's work at www.peterfenner.com --- Dr Peter Fenner, PhD has a multifaceted practice as a writer, author, spiritual coach, and trainer in teachings of deep Buddhist philosophy. The founder of Timeless Wisdom and the pioneer of a number of programs and courses, Dr Peter Fenner based his research on Asian nondual wisdom. He hosts virtual workshops and spiritual retreats all over the world as a leader in his academic field, with a global following for his work, particularly in the US. Peter is qualified with a PhD in the philosophical psychology of the Madhyamika school of Mahayana Buddhism and has developed a range of courses about nondual awareness. Peter's main specialty is developing freeform pointing out instructions, using silence and unfindability inquiry to directly reveal the nature of pure awareness itself. Peter does this individually and in groups where people are supported in their own discovery of the state of nonduality or nonreferentiality. By freeform he using whatever arises in a group in the moment it occurs as the material/constructs, to be seen through, or self-dissolve, revealing the pure liberated nature of unconditioned mind itself—the ultimate medicine. Peter's books include Radiant Mind: Awakening Unconditioned Awareness (Sounds True, 2007), The Ontology of the Middle Way (Kluwer, 1990), Reasoning into Reality (Wisdom Publications, 1994), Essential Wisdom Teachings (with Penny Fenner, Nicolas-Hays, 2001), The Edge of Certainty: Paradoxes on the Buddhist Path (Nicolas-Hays, 2002), Sacred Mirror: Nondual Wisdom and Psychotherapy (Editor, Omega Books, 2003). --- Interview Links: - Dr Fenner's website: https://www.peterfenner.com/ - Dr Fenner's books: https://amzn.to/3tfNqkm

In this 7-minute episode, I open up about why I've been quiet on the podcast lately, and why learning to honor our nervous system, especially during emotionally charged times, is such a powerful act of self-love.I explore what it means to extend grace to ourselves when we don't have the capacity to "do it all," and how uncomfortable (but necessary) it can be to put our own well-being first, especially if you've been conditioned to people-please or overachieve.We talk about the courage it takes to say, “This is what I have capacity for today, and that is enough."And I close by sharing details about our upcoming Tuscany Self-Worth & Sisterhood Retreat; a space intentionally created for rest, healing, and deep reconnection.♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets.

“The subject of affairs, I think it's of interest to everybody. We have all had an Oedipal experience - we've all been babies who have at some point realized that we are not the only person. We're not perfectly fused with our mother, and she has other things to do, and there may be a father. We've all known what rejection feels like, and probably betrayal, and I think that affairs are in our unconscious. I think that's sort of evident in the way that most great novels, most great films, or at least many, have an affair at their heart. From Anna Karenina to Madame Bovary to Fatal Attraction, I think this is something that is just interesting. I wanted to write about affairs because I think they are a way of showing what psychoanalysis can do in a field in which everyone has an opinion on, and probably most people, in some way, have been indirectly or directly affected by. That was really the sort of the genesis for wanting to write about affairs.” Episode Description: We consider the challenge of writing about dynamic treatments in a manner that is accessible to the non-clinical reader. Juliet's book about affairs opens up this widely recognized experience and adds intrapsychic insights without using emotionally - distancing jargon. She introduces us to individuals who have been involved in affairs, with carefully protected confidentiality, who generally reveal the power of past experiences to influence adult choices. Some end happily, and some end in agony. Juliet demonstrates the usefulness of bringing a dynamic listening to both accepting and deepening each individual's lifelong search for love.   Our Guest: Juliet Rosenfeld is a psychoanalyst and a member of the British Psychoanalytical Society, London. She studied at Oxford before a 15-year career in advertising and marketing, ending up in Government Communications. During this time, she began a Master's at the Tavistock and Portman Trust in Organizational Consultancy and started training as a psychotherapist a year later. She qualified as an integrative psychotherapist in 2012. Juliet was an elected trustee of the UK Council of Psychotherapy for four years, and is presently one of two clinician Trustees at the Freud Museum London, Sigmund Freud's final home. Juliet is the author of two books, The State of Disbelief ( 2020) and Affairs, True Stories of Love, Lies, Hope and Desire. Juliet's broader interest is in how psychoanalysis might be more accessible, and its ideas put into non-clinical language for audiences who may never be able to access psychotherapy themselves but are curious about what the unconscious means and what goes on in the consulting room.
