That client who "won't engage." The one who shuts down the moment real work begins.

What if they're not resistant? What if they're fragmented?

Janina Fisher, PhD says it best: "What appears clinically as stuckness and resistance, untreatable diagnoses, or character-disordered behavior simply represent how an individual's mind and body adapted to a dangerous world. Each symptom was an ingenious solution by the body to create some semblance of safety."

Dr. Fisher is hosting a FREE live training on July 30 and she's going to show you how to work with these parts, not against them.

Making it out of a medical crisis and healing from it are not the same thing.

Your client survived. But the flashbacks, the avoided appointments, the panic that hits when they smell antiseptic, that is a different battle entirely, and it deserves the same clinical attention as any other trauma.

We are giving away free exercises from the new book Medical Trauma: Assessment Tools, Coping Skills, and Recovery Strategies for Survivors and Therapists by Dr. Michelle Flaum and Dr. Sacha McBain. Practical, ready-to-use tools to help your clients identify symptoms and start making sense of their experience.

Sure, this rooftop patio is nice, but I've had enough social interaction for the week. Unless of course, there's free food...

Where are all of my introverts at? 💃👯‍♀️😴🛌

Sometimes clients think that words like "mindfulness," "somatic techniques," or "affirmations," mean that we're going to be sitting in a quiet room focusing on only our breath or bodily sensations.

In reality? These body based techniques are about so much more than that. They provide a process for re-establishing safety and connection to our bodies in ways that feel genuine and authentic. Somatic therapy allows us to build a bridge between our brains and our bodies, so that we can begin to feel safe in situations that once signaled danger.

So while the words we use may feel stuffy or scientific, in practice, these techniques can be tailored to the unique individual in front of us.

Therapists, what's your favorite way to reconnect to yourself between sessions?
