Such a wonderful episode you are about to hear! Meet David Polidi, who is a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW), EMDR certified therapist, consultant-in-training, and IFS therapist. He has such great compassion, which I feel comes through in every episode of his own podcast, Empowered Through Compassion: EMDR and IFS Informed Therapy, and now right here on TAP!! He is also a true eclectic like myself - we Sagittarius moon people will know! Enjoy as we talk about synthesizing IFS and EMDR. This conversation will make the most sense if you have some knowledge of those frameworks. After the call, I realized that from the very beginning, we had been talking about Chiron in Aries, as this is the title David Polidi uses for his podcast, website, and business. It is activated for him in this time which we talk about in the end of the interview, but also, in general, it is at the top of his chart, influencing his public profile. Chiron in Aries is exactly what he is talking about in his description of strength. Listen in as we speak about: — Tunnels that intersect and the treasure in the center - Helping clients find the truth within — The internal landscape — The spiritual core of the healing work — Memory reconsolidation — Healing the world through therapy — Chronic pain and EMDR — Parts in roles as helpers — potentially coming up when the client's theme hits home for the therapist — The fire drill — The wounded healer (amazingly, I find that the whole conversation was filled with this archetype?!?) — Helping parts relax back — Somatic understanding of how the body is trying to communicate with you — When you or clients are activated / feel pain after BLS — Healing is not linear — SUD — problems with checking the data (from Mannah's point of view) — The Syzygy Model — Tapping into self-qualities — Working with protectors and their levels of urge — Is it: How do I feel now, or how did I feel back then? — Chiron in Aries, which is potentially also about breaking free from external authority — and doing it with strength from the inside out - and in the tenth house of career it also signifies working with populations that are somehow different or the odd one out — David's great references to movies and the dystopian views of the past playing out in the present — How characters in pop culture are inside us all from an archetypal perspective I hope you felt this interview and meeting of hearts.
