On today's episode I chat with Molly LaCroix about her new book! This is Molly's second appearance on the podcast. Hear her first episode here: IFS and Why Christians Talk So Much About Love But Often Fail to be Loving with Molly LaCroix - Tammy Sollenberger
Molly is a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in treating the impact of trauma and adversity. She earned a master’s in marriage and family therapy from Bethel Seminary San Diego, where she returned as an adjunct professor. Molly is a Certified and Level Three-trained IFS therapist and clinical consultant.
We talk about:
- Integrating Christian spirituality with the IFS model for personal growth and healing
- Using Hagar's story to introduce Self, with emphasis on self-awareness and connection to the divine
- Understanding Self and sin in Christian context, using King David as an example
- Internal work impacting relationships, using Good Samaritan parable as example
- The importance of internal work for spiritual growth and loving others unconditionally
- Managers and Firefighters stories found in the Bible
