E 205: Breaking Generational Trauma: Recovery, Parenting & Nervous System Healing w/ Amber Tolbert, LCSW

20 Jul 2025

Description

In this powerful and deeply honest episode, we’re joined by Amber Tolbert, LCSW—a trauma therapist, supervisor, and founder of Healers in Practice™, a soulful community supporting clinicians in staying aligned with their values without burning out. With over a decade of experience in systems-based healing, embodied supervision, and nervous system-informed care, Amber shares how she helps therapists lead from a place of recovery, not performance, creating trauma-informed, ethical, and sustainable practices.We also dive into generational trauma, addiction recovery, and the emotional work of healing as a parent. I open up about my journey as an adult child of an alcoholic (ACA), my 18 years of personal healing through therapy and holistic practices, and the commitment my husband and I have made to break generational patterns by raising our sons in a home grounded in emotional sobriety and conscious parenting.This conversation is a beacon of hope for therapists, adult children of dysfunctional families, and anyone navigating recovery and parenting. Whether you’re a clinician on the edge of burnout or a cycle-breaker raising kids differently, you’ll find deep validation and inspiration here.🔑 Topics We Cover:Healing from narcissistic and addictive family systemsThe realities of therapist burnout and how to prevent itWhy therapists must do their own inner workBreaking generational cycles and parenting through recoveryThe power of nervous system regulation in trauma healingCreating safety and integrity in therapeutic spacesLiving your recovery out loud📣 Connect with Amber:www.healersinpractice.comwww.the-healingcollective.comInstagram: @healingcollectiveteam🎧 Tune in and be reminded: Healing is possible.
