    Healing Trauma Without the Drama

    In this episode of the PRT Podcast, host John Gasienica, LCSW, is joined by Dr. David Clarke, a board-certified physician in internal medicine and gastroenterology and co-founder of the Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms. John and Dr. Clarke discuss how trauma and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can shape chronic pain and stress, and why traditional tools don’t always work for those with PTSD. Together, they guide patient Rachel through techniques to face emotions of grief, fear, and anger, while learning to see physical symptoms as expressions of emotions rather than signs of damage. Key topics include: Understanding trauma as a driver of chronic pain The three major consequences of childhood trauma (triggers, suppressed emotions, and people-pleasing) Why stillness and compassion can feel unsafe for trauma survivors How to use the physiological sigh and mindfulness tools for regulation Steps to build self-esteem, self-compassion, and sustainable healing Featured Guests: Dr. David Clarke – Physician, author of They Can’t Find Anything Wrong, expert in neuroplastic pain, co-author of Psychophysiological Disorders Rachel – Patient guest sharing her journey with trauma, PTSD, and recovery Click here to access the free meditations mentioned by John in the podcast!

    The No BS Guide to Self-Compassion

    Perfectionism, pressure, and the belief that we’re never “enough” are some of the most overlooked drivers of chronic pain and today’s episode digs deep into how to break that cycle. Therapist John Gasienica and special guest Vanessa Blackstone explore the emotional patterns behind nervous system dysregulation through the story of Jaycie, a nurse and mom dealing with chronic pain and burnout. They uncover how early life messages, people-pleasing, and emotional suppression (especially around anger and rest) keep us stuck and how to begin softening those patterns with real, grounded self-compassion. Vanessa also shares personal reflections on grief and healing, and the episode walks listeners through somatic and visualization tools to begin shifting pain from the inside out.
