The Complicated Heart Podcast with Sarah Mae

Show Notes

Today on the show I bring you something you have been asking for, and that is an interview with an EMDR therapist! Not only do I interview her, but she is answering YOUR questions, the ones you submitted to me a while ago! Who am I interviewing? None other than the passionate Aundi Kolber, author of the new book, Try Softer. You all are going to love her and this interview! LINKS: Try Softer: A Fresh Approach to Move Us out of Anxiety, Stress, and Survival Mode--and into a Life of Connection and Joy. The Complicated Heart: Loving Even When It Hurts Psychology Today (to find a Christian Trauma-informed, EMDR Therapist)

Questions to Ask an EMDR Therapist Before Working with Them: How often do you use EMDR? (Aundi doesn't recommend someone who doesn't use it often) Have you worked with people who have a similar issue as mine? What does faith-integration look like for you? Questions to Ask Yourself Before Working with a Therapist: How do I feel talking to that therapist? (Is there chemistry?) Can I see myself being comfortable with this therapist? QUOTE: "Our bodies heal at the pace they're ready to heal." -Aundi Kolber
