Summary
Therapists are creations so many interesting combinations of modalities to deepen the healing process. This week's guests are two therapists based in Annapolis, Maryland who found a need and created a solution! Meet Chelsea Haverly, LCSW-C and Emily Young, LCSW-C, co-authors of the new book, "Trauma Informed Bodywork". As soon as I heard about their book, I wanted to learn more about what they're doing! Join us for a fascinating conversation about how they combine bodywork, for example Cranio-Sacral Therapy and Trauma-Informed Personal Training, with trauma therapy - in the same sessions! - in their practices. I hope this conversation will inspire creativity for you like it did for me!
Chelsea Haverly, LCSW-C is a somatic therapist and intuitive bodyworker who is the co-creator of the Trauma-Informed Personal Training Certification and the Embodied Parts Integration Framework. Emily Young, LCSW-C is a Trauma-Informed Personal Trainer, Somatic Grief and Trauma Therapist, and the owner of The Embodied Trainer.
