*BEST OF THE PODCAST* How the Body Remembers What the Mind Tries to Forget with Amy Pope-Latham, LCSW & Certified EMDR Therapist The Better You with Kacie Main
-
- Spirituality
In this episode, we talk about the various forms of trauma, how it affects us and our brains, and look at a powerful treatment therapy to heal the negative impacts of trauma.
Amy Pope-Latham is a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience in treating children, adolescents, adults, and families. She received an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Stony Brook University and a Master's degree in Social Work from Stony Brook University's School of Medicine and Social Welfare. She offers EMDR, as well as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and largely incorporates Evidence-Based Practices and Somatic and Mindfulness-based Therapy for a variety of presenting symptoms such as grief, anxiety, complex trauma, obsessive and compulsive thinking patterns, and substance use.
In this episode, we discuss:
· How our minds – like our bodies – are actually set up to heal themselves.
· The different approaches to help reconnect our mind and our body and remove the continuous pain from trauma.
· How EMDR is a tool to access our limbic system, where we store - and essentially hide – our physical feelings, and revisit and process traumatic experiences in a safe space.
· Our drive for connection and how that impacts how we react to trauma.
· How important it is to recognize that we are all in process and wherever you are in that process is exactly where you need to be.
