  • A supportive therapist is crucial for effective recovery.

Ever wondered how thought field therapy can aid in recovery? This episode of The Way Out Podcast features Robert Bray, a seasoned clinical social worker and PhD in clinical psychology, who shares his journey and expertise in using this unique therapeutic approach. Bray has over 50 years of experience in mental health, having started his career with crisis intervention on a drop-in hotline.
He’s worked with numerous organisations, including the International Critical Incident Stress Foundation and the Association for Traumatic Stress Specialists. Despite his impressive credentials, Bray is candid about his own struggles with substance use and how he overcame them through thought field therapy (TFT), a technique he learned from Dr. Roger Callahan in 1996.
Bray explains how TFT, which involves tapping specific meridian points on the body, can help manage urges and emotional responses, making it easier to cope with trauma and addiction. He also touches on the importance of having a supportive therapist and the role of community and family in recovery. Bray’s personal anecdotes and professional insights make this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in alternative therapies for addiction and trauma recovery.
By the end of the episode, you’ll have a deeper understanding of how TFT works and why it might be worth considering in your own recovery journey. So, why not give it a listen and see if TFT could be the missing piece in your recovery puzzle?
