I had the opportunity to sit down with not one but two folks in the trauma-informed therapy and coaching communities. And not only was our conversation aligned around our similar value systems, it was yet another example of how innovative thinking offers clinicians the chance to go beyond the...
Whether we like it or not, the past two years have challenged us to design more innovative ways to run our practices and deliver mental health services. Perhaps you've been curious how EMDRIA has had to roll with the punches, too.
I got to sit down with former EMDRIA...
I sat down with the one and only Dr. Jamie Marich and had the opportunity to hear from a clinician whose transparency about their own identity is the very thing that makes them a great trainer, therapist, and overall human being.

Intensives are ideal therapeutic spaces for integrating various modalities! Today's episode shows us how. In this Zero Disturbance Spotlight Podcast, we explore how to think like a Zero Disturbance business owner/ clinician with Tracy Lynch, who incorporates her training with Gottman,...
