Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

544: IFS + Ancestral Healing: Listening When Parts Speak with Tamala Floyd
Q: But for anyone who's listening, who maybe this is the first time you've found Therapy Chat and you're not familiar with IFS at all, can you give us just a little brief description of what we're talking about with IFS and Parts Work?
IFS views the psyche as made up of parts or sub-personalities that carry burdens from trauma or misattunement; the Self leads the healing by helping these parts unburden and reconnect with their core compassionate qualities.
543: Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy + IFS with Sunny Strasburg, Martha Sweezy, PhD + Dr. David Lovas
Q: Will you give us an overview of what IFS is for people who might not be familiar?
IFS views the mind as plural, with parts that can be in conflict or distress, and a Self that is compassionate and curious. The goal is to relate to parts, understand their roles, and create space so that self-energy can lead and guide healing.
540: Self-Abandonment + Intergenerational Trauma with Alexandra Stevens
Q: How do you define self-abandonment and what are common signs someone might notice in themselves?
Self-abandonment is described as a pattern where individuals sacrifice their own needs, feel stuck or unclear about how to change, and often act from fear or avoidance, with roots in childhood and relational trauma.
540: Self-Abandonment + Intergenerational Trauma with Alexandra Stevens
Q: Could you start off with telling our audience a little bit more about who you are and what you do?
Alexandra describes herself as a Gestalt therapist with EMDR and internal family systems training, living in Lisbon after relocating from London, and focusing on understanding herself while writing a book and hosting a podcast about neuroscience and therapy.
535: Brainspotting + Healing Childhood Trauma With Dr. Cherie Lindberg
Q: Will you talk a little bit about your coaching program and embodied capacity method?
The program is nine months in three phases, starting with Alive and Aligned to reconnect the nervous system and align vision and values, followed by Capacity Lab to address CNS imprints hindering up-level, and finally a focus on sustainable, holistic high performance with brain spotting integrated into real-life work and leadership.
