We didn't understand the nuances or the gradation or the spectrum of dissociation. And so with cathartic release, because it's so, it can be so uncontained, you can, people can get flooded. So it's, yeah, psychodrama can be, it can bring that on. So it's important to like be working in a group that has experience, be working with a director who has the capacity to hold chaotic release.
Ever wondered how music, memory, and drama can aid in trauma recovery? In this episode of 'Healing from the Inside', host Kina Penelope sits down with trauma therapist Jennifer Scully to uncover the power of three transformative therapies. Jennifer, who runs a private practice, shares her passion for supporting individuals through their healing journeys by diving into Stephen Porges' Safe and Sound Protocol, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), and Psychodrama.
The Safe and Sound Protocol uses music to calm the nervous system, while ART focuses on reshaping traumatic memories through bilateral stimulation. Psychodrama, Jennifer's personal favorite, involves reenacting life events to gain new insights and foster healing. But it’s not just about the therapies themselves; Kina and Jennifer also tackle the often controversial world of mental health diagnoses. They discuss why it's crucial to look for physiological causes behind symptoms and explore the therapist's role in helping clients build self-trust.
This episode offers a blend of practical advice and deep reflections, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in innovative approaches to trauma therapy.
