This week, I speak with Dr. Arielle Schwartz, PhD, a seasoned clinical psychologist, EMDR Therapy consultant and author recognized for her expertise in resilience-informed therapy and post-traumatic growth.

Drawing from her personal experience of overcoming trauma, Dr. Schwartz emphasizes the significance of addressing the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of one's being in order to achieve profound and enduring transformations.

What stood out for me in interviewing Dr. Schwratz was her brilliant integration of the Western scientific lens on trauma and the yogic wisdom on those same aspects of the human experience.

We discuss:

The need for trauma awareness in coaching
Are psychedelics a shortcut in therapy?
Trauma release and the energetic body
Yoga as therapy
Trauma-aware dentists and more.
