Welcome

Welcome home, cojourners. Glad you're here for another episode. I'm Dr. Tema, licensed

psychologist, ordained minister and sacred artists here to help facilitate your journey back

home to yourself. And I am so excited for our special guest on today, Dr. Denise

Admedinia. Welcome, Dr. Denise. Thank you so much. I'm happy to be here.

I'm so glad you're here and you all have to know this is a full circle moment. Dr. Denise is a graduate

of Pepperdine University's doctoral program where I teach. And so what a gift to now have her in the field doing this healing work.

And let me tell them more about you. Dr. Denise is a licensed clinical psychologist, childhood

sexual abuse survivor, and mother of two whose work bridges psychology, somatic and parts work.

So soma means the body.

We've talked about that in prior episodes.

And intuitive energy healing.

She holds a master's in marriage and family therapy from USC and a doctorate in clinical psychology from Pepperdine University.

And she's an international speaker on embodied trauma healing.

So you all know already why I'm such a fan getting that body into the healing process.

Through her Beverly Hills practice and online programs, which are called heal the inner child

and cycle breaker collective, Dr. Denise

helps survivors transform trauma into truth, embodiment, and self-trust. Don't we want to do that?

Yes. Her integrative approach, shaped by her own healing journey, uses semantic and parts work to clear trauma's residue so the

authentic self can emerge. This is definitely what we are all about. As both clinician and

survivor, she illuminates how family and collective systems perpetuate silence and generational harm,

blending clinical insight with lived wisdom to unite the science of trauma with the body's sacred intelligence.
