This episode is sponsored by PearsonRavitz– an agency dedicated to supporting physicians on their journey to getting the right insurance. Our next guest is a Connecticut psychologist and PTSD survivor, Dr. David Bonanno, who has developed a groundbreaking therapy for trauma psychology that challenges conventional methods used in allopathic medicine. This episode revolves around the potential impact of redefining and destigmatizing conditions like "being adrenalized" compared to traditional PTSD. The main question is how this change might influence individuals in seeking help and treatment for their symptoms. This suggests that a shift in terminology and perception could encourage more people to acknowledge their symptoms and seek assistance without the fear of judgment or reluctance commonly associated with the term PTSD. Looking for something specific? Here you go 00:03:00 PTSD and chronic stress similarities. 00:08:01 Adrenaline can be pathological. 00:14:09 Trauma therapy can help heal. 00:21:05 PTSD is different from anxiety. 00:21:34 PTSD is not easily overcome. 00:28:56 Unplugging and social connection are important for mental health. 00:32:46 Social connection is crucial. 00:39:33 Rewriting trauma can heal. 00:44:56 Rapid healing through subconscious work. 00:51:54. Changing the narrative heals trauma. 00:56:38 Cat brain controls human behavior. 01:01:30 Cannabis can help with PTSD. 01:03:45 Cannabis strains can target specific symptoms. 01:08:55 Understanding limits helps with PTSD. Bio: Dr. Bonanno is the Freshest, Boldest Voice in Trauma Psychology today. And he has developed a dynamite therapy that is better than all the rest. Almost everyone who promises a way to get past your past has a method that involves time, money, work, and pain and everything else thrown against the wall as a “cure” for life's hardships. PTSD has been the biggest topic in Psychology for 10+ years now. Because that's what therapists still cannot heal. David Bonanno is a Connecticut psychologist and PTSD survivor who has been helping people since 1993. He is the first person in America to begin to qualify patients for Medical Marijuana by evaluating them for PTSD. His company, Bonanno Mental Healthcare, has assisted over 16,000 needy people in gaining access to medicine that is much better than pharmaceuticals. Dr. Bonanno is the inventor of De-Adrenalizing, a revolutionary and rapidly-growing therapy that heals sufferers of all psychological traumas, and the author of Your Brain is a Robocat: How to Finally Understand Your Trauma Response. This book is easy to read but will transform the reader's conceptualization of how the human brain functions before and after trauma. When people are finally able to understand themselves, they no longer have to blame and hate themselves. Our Advice! Everything in this podcast is for educational purposes only.

On this episode, I (Pedro) chatted with a man who wanted to be a pastor, but instead became a depressed bank teller, and is now a brilliant Psychotherapist. This conversation with Matthias J. Barker is insightful, inspiring, and deeply relevant for all of us. He's become a leading voice in the mental health space while guiding countless individuals toward freedom and health.

He holds a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and has been formally trained for treating complex trauma, anxiety, and marital issues. You have probably seen his content on social media because so many people are discovering healing in his words and tools. Here are a couple of themes that really impacted me from our conversation: His definition of trauma was unbelievably clear & deeply helpful. Spiritual trauma and the predispositions we carry with us from our stories. What do first responders of 9/11 and childhood trauma have to teach us? The parts of us that long to be heard and what can happen when we feel safe to share. Tools for navigating fear and stress. Matthias treats a large variety of mental disorders and difficult life circumstances in his clinical practice. He is the author of two e-books, On Grief and On Avoiding Burnout. In addition, he has released over 8 public workshops focusing on Trauma, Anxiety, Boundaries with Parents, and Couples Conflict. He lives in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife and two children.

Today on Licensed Psychologist, Now What? Podcast I have the honor and privilege to have a conversation with Dr. Frances Vidot who recently finished my six-month mentorship program that just ended in September of this year. Frances is not only a fellow psychologist but also a Boricua like me and we share some similarities in our journeys coming to the U.S. and getting licensed here in this country. We talk about her journey and experience going through the process of getting licensed here in the US, and how even though it wasn't her first choice she feels that life itself placed her in the city of LA where she fell in love with the way of living. She currently specializes in Trauma Psychology and works mostly with the LatinX community which she enjoys immensely because she feels she can give back to her community and help fill the gaps and voids these people suffer in their everyday life. We also talk about her challenges being a Latina in the industry especially about dealing with Impostor Syndrome, and how she has been able to heal by talking about her issues and giving herself the time and care she needs as an individual. If you or anybody you know have recently moved to the U.S. and is going through a similar transition this episode is for you!

Why are mental and emotional health issues at an all-time high in America and many other modern countries? Nearly 1 in 5 Americans suffer from a diagnosable mental health issue and that number is only growing. We talk to Ashley Mrozek about the growing need for alternative practices, emotional support, and awareness when it comes to our nation's healthcare system. We discuss why many traditional cultures had respect for people who experienced visions or heard voices where today we diagnose them with mental illness. Ashley has helped many people come to terms with their emotional trauma and is a wealth of knowledge in the realm of holistic health. We highly encourage listeners to dive into this episode and follow the work of Ashely as she is helping pave the way for the future of mental health treatment.

Sex is great! Still the subject of sexuality - also have dark sides. From societies stigmatisation of sex workers and sexual educators - to the reaction and expression of a sexually sick society - where abuse and sexual violence also is a real part of our complicated human experience. And sometimes life seems just too dark. So we got in touch with Erika Miley - who is a sexual psychologist working for sexual health and with people experiencing trauma. Tommy feels he is getting more mad by the day - and hopes his traumas finally can be explained in a rational and logical manner. Leona still acts sane - and pretends all is great. Is it possible to get mentally healthy - in a world that definitely is not that healthy? Can anyone be sane in a insane world? Or do we all need a therapist? All spiked up with real traumas and common confused ideas about how open sexual education and real sexual communication - could be the root of eliminating all sexual violence and violence in general. Or are we all just violent by nature? You need help in these dark days?

The Daf from a Psychological Perspective For Mareh Mekomos Click Below וּכְגוֹן זֶה כּוֹפִין עַל מִדַּת סְדוֹם. In a case such as this, one compels another to refrain from behavior characteristic of Sodom. We force a person to waive his legal rights in order to prevent him from acting in a manner characteristic of the wicked city of Sodom. If one denies another use of his possessions, even though he would incur no loss or damage by granting use of his property, his conduct is considered to be characteristic of Sodom. The courts may sometimes compel such a person to waive his legal rights. On Middas Sodom Kometz HaMincha 1:31 כל דעביד רחמנא לטב (ברכות ס'), דבלאו הכי זה נהנה וזה לא חסר כופין על מדת סדום. ולפעמים לכפרת עונות וגם זה לטוב כמו הרופא מקיז דם ועושה חבורה. וזהו כל המחלה אשר שמתי במצרים. שהיו לדראון עולם על ידיהם. לא אשים עליך בדרך זה. כי אני ד' רופאך. באלה המכות: Rav Tzadok HaCohen Mi-Lublin brings across a fascinating dimension of the principle of Kofin Al Middas Sodom. it is within the Jewish ethic that if one does not lose out in any way then what is forbidden to withhold a good or service from somebody else. This is so even to the extent that it could be enforced by the courts, which is something quite unique in Jewish law over secular law. Rob Tzadok uses this to raise a question. Since G-d is omnipotent, why should He punish us for our sins? Could He not just reward us anyhow since it doesn't cost him anything. Is this not Middas Sodom? he says, we therefore must conclude that also called punishments are for our own good. He then cleverly uses the juxtaposition of the verse that states in Exodus (15:26) That I am G-d your healer and I also will not bring upon you the punishments that I brought upon the Egyptians in the following manner. It is not that G-d is just giving us a free ride and not bringing the pain or the punishments that He gave the Egyptians. No, quite the opposite, because he is on healer he brings Upon Us punishments for the sake of improving us. Categorically the experience is different. וַיֹּאמֶר֩ אִם־שָׁמ֨וֹעַ תִּשְׁמַ֜ע לְק֣וֹל ׀ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֗יךָ וְהַיָּשָׁ֤ר בְּעֵינָיו֙ תַּעֲשֶׂ֔ה וְהַֽאֲזַנְתָּ֙ לְמִצְוֺתָ֔יו וְשָׁמַרְתָּ֖ כָּל־חֻקָּ֑יו כָּֽל־הַמַּֽחֲלָ֞ה אֲשֶׁר־שַׂ֤מְתִּי בְמִצְרַ֙יִם֙ לֹא־אָשִׂ֣ים עָלֶ֔יךָ כִּ֛י אֲנִ֥י יְהוָ֖ה רֹפְאֶֽךָ׃) He said, “If you will heed the LORD your God diligently, doing what is upright in His sight, giving ear to His commandments and keeping all His laws, then I will not bring upon you any of the diseases that I brought upon the Egyptians, for I the LORD am your healer.” Of course, it is difficult to experience challenges of life with Equanimity and the philosophy that it is there to help us grow and improve. There is a time for being angry and for grieving. However, the psychological literature as well supports the notion that recovery from trauma consists of being able to make meaning of the experience that happened. It's not that we need to say we had to have the trauma, however it is important to understand how would happen to us makes us who we are and how we used what happened ultimately into an opportunity for growth. This cannot be rushed, and not imposed from the outside. Friends, lovers & Family must do their best to be patient and understanding. We must keep in mind what the Gemara (Bava Metzia 58b) tells us about Job's friends: Even though technically his friends were right that the experience that he went through were part of G-d's benevolence oh, they were cruel for saying it because that was something he needed to find for himself. אם היו יסורין באין עליו אם היו חלאים באין עליו או שהיה מקבר את בניו אל יאמר לו כדרך שאמרו לו חביריו לאיוב (איוב ד, ו) הלא יראתך כסלתך תקותך ותום דרכיך זכר נא מי הוא נקי אבד If torments are afflicting a person, if illnesses are afflicting him, or if he is burying his children, one may not speak to him in the manner that the friends of Job spoke to him: “Is not your fear of God your confidence, and your hope the integrity of your ways? Remember, I beseech you, whoever perished, being innocent?” (Job 4:6–7). Certainly you sinned, as otherwise you would not have suffered misfortune.
The Daf from a Psychological Perspective For Mareh Mekomos Click Below In this section we will discuss and an unusual custom that, according to some, was enacted in order to forestall wedding night trauma. Imagine if one year the Moschiach came and Elijah the prophet announced that this year the Mitzvah on Seder night is to have a Ham on Rye. Even the most devout believer would probably choke while trying to perform the Mitzvah. This is what wedding night trauma is for some couples who have spent their whole life feeling the sexuality is Forbidden and suddenly it is an obligation to perform. This experience can lead to years of trauma and dysfunction such as painful intercourse and impotence. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר: נְשׂוּאוֹת — יִתְאָרְסוּ. Rabbi Yehuda says: A woman who had been married when she became widowed or divorced may be betrothed immediately, as couples do not have relations during the period of their betrothal. However, she may not marry until three months have passed, in order to differentiate between any possible offspring from the first and second husband. וַאֲרוּסוֹת — יִנָּשְׂאוּ, חוּץ מֵאֲרוּסָה שֶׁבִּיהוּדָה, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁלִּבּוֹ גַּס בָּהּ. A woman who had only been betrothed when she became widowed or divorced may be married immediately, as it may be assumed that the couple did not have relations during the period of their betrothal. This is except for a betrothed woman in Judea, because there the bridegroom's heart is bold, as it was customary for couples to be alone together during the period of betrothal, and consequently there is a suspicion that they might have had relations, in which case she might be carrying his child. However, no similar concern applies in other places. כתובות יב, א מתני׳ האוכל אצל חמיו ביהודה שלא בעדים אינו יכול לטעון טענת בתולים מפני שמתייחד עמה: MISHNA: A man who eats at the house of his father-in-law in Judea after betrothal and with-out witnesses to attest to the fact that he was not alone with his betrothed is unable to make a claim concerning virginity after marriage because in accordance with the custom in Judea, the assumption is that he secluded himself with her, and the concern is that it was he who engaged in intercourse with her. שיטה מקובצת כתובות שם מתניתין האוכל אצל חמיו כו'. מפני שמתייחד עמה. כלומר דרכן של בני יהודה היה לייחד החתן עם הכלה קודם שנכנסו לחופה כדי שיהא לבו גס בה שתאהב הכלה את החתן לפי שאין האשה כורתת ברית אלא למי שעשאה כלי ואם ח"ו תבעל להגמון אחר כך תבעל לה באונס א"נ כדי שימצאנה ההגמון בעולה ויבטל גזרתו שגזר כל בתולה שנשאת ברביעי תבעל להגמון תחלה ומשום הכי היה מנהג ביהודה יותר משאר מקומות לפי שרוב גזרותיו ביהודה משום שיודע שממנו עתיד לצאת משיח שיושיע את ישראל וישפוט את הר עשו The shita seems to hold that the reason for the custom in Yehuda was in reaction to the Primae Noctis, a custom in many cultures in the ancient world for the king to have sexual relations with the virgin bride before her wedding. The inhabitants of Judea would allow the bride and groom be sexual once during their erusin (betrothal period) before their nesuin either to create the bond between husband and wife before the Hegemon interferes or to actually outwit him by rendering her no longer a virgin. רש״י יבמות מא, א חוץ מארוסה שביהודה - דתנן פרק קמא דכתובות (דף יב.) ביהודה היו מייחדים החתן והכלה קודם כניסתן לחופה כדי שיהא לבו גס בה כלומר רגיל ומצחק עמה שלא יהיו בושין זה מזה בבעילת מצוה הלכך חיישינן דלמא בעיל: According to Rashi the custom was in order to prevent wedding night trauma. The custom in Judea was to encourage developing comfort and a relationship first before the pressure of having to be sexual on the wedding night. Interestingly enough, the Yad Ephraim )קצ״ז) on Yoreh Deah (1760-1828) records a contemporary custom of the groom being alone with the bride the night before the wedding in order to fulfill the requirement of making sure the groom voluntarily chooses the bride and desires her as well as quotes this Rashi about them being comfortable before attempting intimacy. “….ולפי מנהג מדינות אלו שבלילה שלפני החופה שעושין סעודה בבית הכלה שקורין חתן מא"ל ומביאין החתן ג"כ לשם עם הבחורים לאחר הסעודה מייחדין החתן והכלה בחדר מיוחד מ"מ נראה דשפיר טובלת ביום דלא שייך בזה סרך בתה דאע"פ שמייחדין אותם מ"מ ידוע שהיחוד אינו לביאה רק בכדי לקיים דברי חז"ל אסו' לקדש אשה עד שיראנה וגם שיהא לבו גס בה…” What is fascinating here is that wedding night trauma is an experience that seems to be cross-cultural and cross-generational. Even though we do not have these customs that they had in Judea it does tell us that we could be attuned and find our way to forestall this problem. Thorough premarital counseling and education as well as rabbinic sensitivity and parental involvement is crucial.

Today's podcast is a conversation between Dr. Howard Gurr and Dr. Skip Rizzo. Dr. Rizzo is well known for his work with VR and PTSD. He is one of the first psychologists to recognize the benefits of VR for psychological issues. Dr. Rizzo talks about his introduction to VR, the benefits of VR for mental health problems and his research with VR. Here is Dr. Rizzo's bio:Albert “Skip” Rizzo is a clinical psychologist/neuropsychologist and Director of Medical Virtual Reality at the University Of Southern California Institute for Creative Technologies. He is also a Research Professor with the USC Dept. of Psychiatry and at the USC Davis School of Gerontology. Skip conducts research on the design, development and evaluation of Virtual Reality systems targeting the areas of clinical assessment, treatment and rehabilitation across the domains of psychological, cognitive and motor functioning in both healthy and clinical populations. This work has focused on PTSD, TBI, Autism, ADHD, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and other clinical conditions. In spite of the diversity of these clinical R&D areas, the common thread that drives all of his work with digital technologies involves the study of how interactive and immersive Virtual Reality simulations can be usefully applied to address human healthcare needs beyond what is possible with traditional 20th Century tools and methods. In 2010 he received the “American Psychological Association Award for Outstanding Contribution to the Practice of Trauma Psychology” and in 2012, the MMVR Satava Award for excellence in the use of VR for therapeutic applications. In 2015, he received the Society for Brain Mapping and Therapeutics “Pioneer in Medicine” award presented to individuals who have significantly contributed to the scientific advancement in the fields of medicine through a multidisciplinary approach.
