The Trauma Therapist

Sasha is the loving father of 3 boys ages 22, 18, and 12. Sasha says that his children have taught him much more about therapy than he ever learned in any psychology class.He started sitting therapeutically with people 25 years ago. In the early days he used muscle testing, flower remedies and guidance from the spirit world to support people wanting better health.Over the first 15 years of his practice, he observed that some people got better but many people were not getting much better at all.For 25 years he searched for the roots of suffering and disease. Over those years he studied Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, energy healing, among other modalities, and he explored and practiced a multitude of spiritual paths7 years ago, he became a Relational Somatic Therapist through Mariah Moser's Relational Somatic Therapy course, Opening to Grace, and between that and parenting, he is thrilled to claim that he has found the Holy Grail of healing. Most of what he practices and teaches he did not learn through school, rather, he learned it through sitting with people, in the trenches for 25 years, not knowing what he was doing, but sitting there with an earnest desire to get to the bottom of it!Now he trains therapists, facilitates retreats, and has a thriving private practice in Kaslo BC.In This EpisodeHold on to your kids, Gabor MateSharon Stanley’s bookSasha’s Physiology of Trauma classBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.You can learn more about what I do here:The Trauma Therapist Newsletter: celebrates the people and voices in the mental health profession.
