Dr. Kelli Palfy began her professional career working in adult and youth corrections. Here she noticed a disproportionate number of males in the system. In 1996, she became an RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) officer. She took an interest in investigating sex crimes and went on to specialize in sex crimes committed against children internationally. Here, as she combed through video evidence, she witnessed first-hand the grooming tactics commonly used by sophisticated pedophiles.After retiring from the RCMP, Dr. Palfy obtained her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from the University of Alberta. She conducted her doctoral research on the reasons why males don’t commonly disclose sexual abuse. She is now a trained trauma therapist and public speaker on the topic of male sexual abuse. Dr. Palfy currently runs a small private practice where she works with male survivors of abuse, first responders, and couples using Emotion-Focused and Cognitive Behavioral Approach, plus Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Outside of her professional life, she enjoys hiking, cycling, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and hanging out with friends and her pets.In This EpisodeKelli’s website---If you’d like to support The Trauma Therapist Podcast and the work I do you can do that here with a monthly donation of $5, $7, or $10: Donate to The Trauma Therapist Podcast.Click here to join my email list and receive podcast updates and other news.Become 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.

In this episode, Veronique Mead, MD, MA, SEP, founder/consultant at Chronic Illness Trauma Studies interviews Psychologist Tony Madrid, PhD of Russian River Counselors on his work reversing asthma in children by helping their mothers heal from bonding disruptions. Childhood asthma can be cured if the child is not bonded with their mother. That occurs when babies are removed too soon from their mother or when the mother has suffered some terrible thing in her life, like divorce or death in the family. When the trauma is healed and a new birth is created in the mother’s mind, the child’s asthma will improve.Veronique Mead, MD, MA was a Dartmouth-affiliated assistant professor of family medicine and obstetrics. She retrained with a Master’s degree in somatic psychotherapy from Naropa University and additional specialty training in pre and perinatal and other forms of trauma. For the past 25 years she has explored the scientific literature on how effects of trauma from the prenatal and other periods in a person’s life can influence risk for autoimmune and other chronic illnesses. She shares the research on her blog Chronic Illness Trauma Studies https://chronicillnesstraumastudies.comTony Madrid, PhD has a Doctorate from Washington State University and completed a Fellowship in Medical Psychology at University of California at San Francisco. He ran California’s licensing board for four years and was a lecturer at the University of San Francisco for 11 years. He’s been a staff psychologist at Sonoma County for 3 years and a member of Russian River Counselors for 25 years.
