Summary

I love learning about different trauma therapies and giving you options to find specialists who can help you heal. TikTok is rife with mental health professionals giving sound advice. I first came to know this week’s guest, Simone Saunders, when I saw her Tiktok video about a symptom of trauma: a sense of a foreshortened future. Simone is a mental health and wellness-based content creator and licensed therapist. She is known for creating content that breaks down psychoeducational topics into digestible pieces, normalizing mental health issues, and giving an inside look at the therapy process. Together, Simone and I have a conversation about Accelerated Resolution Therapy, understanding internal family systems, and unpacking the various symptoms of trauma and failed attachment in childhood. You’ll hear: Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and how it helps reprogram the way in which traumatic memories and images are stored in the brain so that they no longer trigger strong physical and emotional reactions. (6:04) How Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help individuals to heal. Simone shares some of the common categories of parts firefighters, managers, and exiles, as well. (10:00) A symptom of trauma that is not talked about enough is a sense of a foreshortened future. Simone explains what it is and how it shows up. (23:30) Hyper-Independence and its relation to attachment. (25:30) How to talk to your family about your mental health journey and experience with therapy. (31:15) Simone answers, “Is therapy a life-long journey and should you take therapy breaks?” (40:38) http://andreaowen.com/435 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:35.0	parents did that the best that they could, then that means that
0:38.1	my experiences aren't valid. And that's not true. And both can be true that your parents did
0:43.3	the best they could with the information and the resources that they had at the time. And also,
0:48.5	you didn't get your needs met. And that caused damage for you.
