Summary

Navigating the complex world of mental health support can be daunting, especially for Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) who require healers or therapists that truly resonate with their unique needs. This episode unpacks the often overlooked challenges HSPs face when seeking mental health professionals. Discover why traditional credentials might not be the best indicators of a good therapist or healer for sensitive individuals and learn practical strategies for assessing potential mental health partners beyond their qualifications. We discuss the importance of emotional connection, personal trust, and the specific attributes that HSPs should look for in a healer to ensure a safe and effective therapeutic relationship. Whether you're healing from abuse, seeking self-improvement, or simply looking to deepen your understanding of therapy, find out how to make informed choices that support your journey towards emotional resilience and personal growth. This is a new way to approach finding the right healer for HSPs, Empaths, & Trauma Survivors. Open to trusting intuition, asserting needs with clarity, getting beyond the basics of credentialed professionals, to find fulfillment. Nikki shares a story about meeting Lisa Tahir, Life Coach and Intuitive Therapist in New Orleans and Los Angeles and the moment their work began in perfect awkward anxiety, personal responsibility, & kind patience.

0:00.0	Welcome to Emotional Badass, where Moxie meets Mindful.
0:04.3	I'm Nikki Eisenhower, your host, life coach and psychotherapist.
0:08.6	And on today's show, we're going to discuss how to find a healer.
0:30.0	It's so hard to find the right healer for so many reasons.
0:39.1	Some of you have tried with multiple healers, therapists, coaches, clergy, if that's the
0:46.1	right word, people in your church, referrals from your doctors, and you just haven't been
0:51.3	able to find the right fit.
0:52.9	And that's so frustrating and heartbreaking.

1:23.7	because, because of how laws work and discrimination, there's no real filtering process for who

1:33.3	If you can do the school work, this is true of all health care, all things educational.
1:39.2	If you can do the school work, you can get the degree, you can get the job.
1:42.8	What's happening there is we now have a country that has been taught to trust education,
