    Transformative Therapy: Exploring EMDR with Siobhan Bonfield

    Challenging life experiences, including trauma, can have a lasting effect on quality of life. The effects can be both psychological and physiological, and finding an effective treatment can be transformative. In this episode of 'Well, Hello Anxiety', we explore Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy with Dr. Siobhan Bonfield, an experienced Clinical Psychologist. EMDR is a structured therapy that provides patients with a unique approach to processing trauma by utilising bilateral stimulation to reduce the vividness and emotional intensity associated with past traumas.

    In this conversation, Dr Jodi Richardson and Dr Siobhan Bonfield explore the intricacies of EMDR therapy, discussing its effectiveness in treating individuals with experiences of complex trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and other psychological challenges. Siobhan shares her expertise in EMDR and highlights its role in facilitating trauma recovery, offering hope and healing to those navigating their journey towards flourishing.

    Mark Making for Mental Health: Lessons from Jean Kropper

    Mark Making for Mental Health: Lessons from Jean Kropper

    Join us for an enlightening episode of "Well, Hello Anxiety" featuring Jean Kropper, three time author and leader of purpose-driven art workshops for over 25 years here in Australia and around the world. Her workshops help make mindfulness accessible to a wide audience by supporting participants to put pen (or pencil) to paper and begin simply making marks. Jean leverages her own journey of healing from PTSD, caused by living with an alcoholic partner, to help people learn to express creativity, express uncomfortable emotions, quieten down raging thoughts, improve mental health and wellbeing and build a happier brain. 

    In this conversation Jean shares with Jodi what led her to leading meditative drawing workshops, how mark making and drawing help relieve and manage stress, debunks the myth that we're either born creative or we're not, the powerful therapeutic benefits of making art, how to get started and so much more.

A must listen for anyone with or anyone supporting someone with anxiety.
