Trauma And Addiction with Dr. Natalie Feinblatt

Tue, 17 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0500

Trauma doesn’t always look like one catastrophic event and addiction doesn’t always start as “bad choices.” We sit down with licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Natalie Feinblatt to connect the dots between trauma, complex PTSD, and substance use in a way that feels honest, compassionate, and practical. When the nervous system has been pushed past its limits, reaching for alcohol or drugs can become a form of self-medication that works for a while, until it starts taking more than it gives.

We also get concrete about what trauma-informed addiction treatment actually looks like: thorough assessment, careful pacing, and a plan that respects where someone is in sobriety before diving into intense trauma processing. Natalie explains why language matters, especially for survivors who have been harmed while intoxicated, and why certain interpretations of “what was your part?” can backfire when trauma is involved. If you’ve ever felt stuck in shame, this conversation offers a different frame that keeps accountability without blaming the victim.

Then we dig into EMDR therapy and the neuroscience of healing. Natalie breaks down bilateral stimulation, why trauma treatment has to include the body and the nervous system, and how neuroplasticity helps us build new pathways over time. We close with a powerful metaphor for realistic recovery: turning down the PTSD “radio” so life becomes livable again, even if the past still exists.

If this resonated, subscribe, share the episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find trauma-informed recovery resources.

Bridging Law And Healthcare

Fri, 13 Mar 2026 11:00:00 -0500

Systems don’t heal people—people do. When law, healthcare, and community support finally move together, cases resolve faster, resources reach families sooner, and the person at the center gets the care they deserve. We sat down with Alex Gomez, VP of Marketing at Legal Med 180, to unpack how a collaborative platform replaces outdated expert directories with vetted, court-ready clinical partnerships that actually improve outcomes.

We dig into the real bottlenecks attorneys face when tracking down the right medical and mental health experts, and why many clinicians avoid legally involved cases. Alex shares how Legal Med 180 builds bridges: clear expectations, aligned documentation standards, and a network of clinicians who understand both clinical rigor and legal needs. Instead of search-click-done, the model is relationship-first—so reports are stronger, timelines shorter, and clients get access to therapy, equipment, and life care planning sooner.

You’ll also hear about Walk Them Home, the campaign at the heart of Legal Med 180’s mission. Built for first responders, veterans, and their families, it pairs advocacy and storytelling with practical resources that cut through red tape. The aim is simple: no one walks alone through injury, trauma, or disability. Together with TeleWellness Hub’s provider-curated tools and education, the partnership refuses to gatekeep knowledge and brings credible mental health and medical content where people actually need it.

If you’re an attorney, there’s a faster way to find the right expert. If you’re a clinician, there’s a safe, structured path to contribute your skills to meaningful cases. And if you’re navigating a tough season, there are people ready to help—today. Subscribe, share this episode with someone who needs it, and leave a review to help others find the show. Then visit legalmed180.com to get involved and follow Walk Them Home.

Despite its name, this remarkable organization serves everyone—women, men, children, teens, and families—with a commitment that sets it apart in today's mental health landscape: providing quality care regardless of ability to pay.

From Burnout to Empowerment: Actionable Steps for Mental Wellness

Wed, 16 Apr 2025 07:00:00 -0500

Mental health affects everyone, and taking small steps to manage stress, anxiety, and burnout can make a significant difference in our overall wellbeing.

• Burnout happens gradually through emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and lack of accomplishment
• Setting boundaries and taking short breaks can help reclaim energy and reset your nervous system
• Post-pandemic anxiety is completely normal as we adjust to new social dynamics and routines
• Mindful breathing is a powerful tool for managing anxiety, focusing on the sensation of air moving in and out
• Telehealth therapy has made mental health support more accessible, especially in Texas which ranks last in provider access
• Therapy should feel safe and supportive – it's okay to ask questions and find the right therapist for your specific needs
• Small daily habits like five-minute mindfulness practices can significantly reduce stress
• Mental health maintenance is preventative, similar to regular dental check-ups before problems arise
• When searching for a therapist, use specific terms related to your needs (trauma, depression, burnout)

If this episode resonated with you, please share it with someone who might need it. Remember you are worthy of support.

Navigating the Rise of AI-Powered Mental Health Support

Tue, 11 Mar 2025 14:00:00 -0500

Artificial intelligence is reshaping mental health care at breathtaking speed, but are we moving too quickly to embrace technology at the expense of human connection? As a licensed professional counselor since 2011, I've spent weeks researching this transformative trend to understand what it means for both providers and clients.

The appeal is undeniable. AI-driven mental health platforms offer 24/7 support, affordability, and unprecedented accessibility. Studies show these tools can reduce symptoms for some users, and their popularity has skyrocketed with a 500% increase in usage since 2020. As someone who understands the midnight need for support when therapy appointments are days away, I see the potential benefits.

Yet serious concerns emerge upon closer examination. Most AI systems provide mechanical responses that leave users feeling unheard. Some platforms have suggested actively harmful coping strategies, raising alarm bells about safety. Without a human provider's clinical judgment, AI cannot properly diagnose, personalize treatment, or adapt to complex emotional needs. Perhaps most troubling are the privacy issues – many AI mental health tools collect sensitive data that may be used for marketing or sold to third parties, a far cry from the confidentiality guaranteed by licensed professionals bound by HIPAA.

For mental health providers, this shift creates both existential fears and opportunities. Many professionals who've invested years in education and training worry about being replaced by algorithms. However, I believe the path forward lies not in resistance but in ethical integration. We need mental health professionals at the table shaping how AI is implemented in our field, ensuring technology supports rather than replaces human care. That's why platforms like Telewellness Hub are creating communities where providers can navigate these changes together while advocating for human-first, ethical mental health solutions.

Subscribe to join our conversation about the future of mental health care. Together, we can ensure that in our rush to innovate, we don't lose the irreplaceable human connection at the heart of healing.

Ep 73 Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy Unveiled Part 3: Sarah's Experience with Ketamine and Path to Wellness & Transformation

Tue, 06 Aug 2024 04:00:00 -0500

Curious about the evolving landscape of mental health treatments? Join us for an enlightening session with Crystal Myers, a licensed professional counselor, and Sarah, her courageous client who embraced the transformative power of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Together, we navigate Sarah's decade-long journey through various therapeutic methods, including mindfulness, EMDR, CBT, and somatic therapy, culminating in her profound experience with ketamine. Discover how Sarah overcame her initial skepticism about ketamine's reputation and found it to be a groundbreaking tool in her healing process.

In this candid discussion, Sarah shares the remarkable improvements in her sleep, mood, and emotional connections, attributing these positive changes to ketamine therapy. We celebrate her resilience and the newfound harmony between her mind and body, which has empowered her to navigate life's challenges with grace. Crystal and I highlight the importance of self-love, setting healthy boundaries, and being open to different therapeutic approaches. This episode offers hope and practical insights for anyone exploring ketamine-assisted psychotherapy or seeking effective mental health support.

A personal message from Sarah (we are so grateful for her healing, the healers, and this innovative treatment option):
KAP has worked differently than EMDR or other treatments as it enables me to process forgotten trauma, missing memories, physical sensations, etc without having to remember the specific details. Over the years, these blocked memories and physical traumas have been the biggest obstacle to my treatment. I have survived the depression, anxiety, insomnia, and other cPTSD effects, through denying, minimizing, self harm (eating disorder + substance/alcohol abuse), over working, being over active, isolation, people pleasing, etc. Basically, my firefighters and critics have taken the wheel most of my life.

The antidepressant relief was felt immediately after the first session; the behavioral and mental changes have been more gradual over the last six months.

Some changes include: how seamlessly I can accomplish tasks, get out of bed, good posture and PT/yoga, keeping good habits, interviewing for over a dozen jobs, planning and showing up (I struggle with keeping plans or having energy) for friend adventures, reconnecting with positive people, less social anxiety, excitement to try new things, ability to maintain eye contact, genuinely interacting with strangers, to feel and be with an entire range of emotions (notably rage) without regression, to clearly express my emotions/needs, to express and uphold boundaries, and (the biggest one) disowning my life-long abuser and navigating the backlash/disregard of my complex traumatic experience.

I can feel my heart energy and want to love/help everyone feel better. I'm more connected to the left side of my body/right brain, than I can ever remember. I experience patience, grace, and respect for myself, my experience, emotions, struggles, etc instead of numbing out with marijuana and alcohol to push away the feelings that have been fighting to be expressed and felt.

I feel blessed to be part of something bigger than myself, transitioning from surviving to thriving. I can finally feel for/connect with my inner child, being on her own from a very early age (possibly birth), and believe that I had no control over the things that were done to me. My bad habits aren't a reflection of my soul, it's what I did/do to survive. I can slowly transition away from these habits as I'm sa

Ep 57 Dr. Darian Parker on Evolving Through Fitness and Life Editing: Supporting balance and change

Tue, 23 Apr 2024 04:00:00 -0500

Discover the transformative power of fitness with Dr. Darian Parker, the 2023 Idea Personal Trainer of the Year, who joins us to reveal the deep ties between physical training and personal evolution. This episode is a workout for your mind, as Dr. Parker, a maestro of behavior modification, shares the importance of building relationships and emotional support within the realm of personal training. We examine the nuances of behavior change, emphasizing the creation of choice architecture as a pivotal strategy for nudging individuals towards a healthier, more active life. Together, we confront the sedentary behaviors that dominate modern life, uncovering the emotional underpinnings that can lead to a productivity crisis.

Balance is not just a concept for the gym, it's the essence of a fulfilling life. I open up about my personal journey with setting boundaries, introducing the concept of a 'stopping list,' a tool for growth that highlights the power of saying no to make room for the yeses that matter. We discuss the art of life editing, which can be as simple as shutting down work early on Fridays or as profound as cutting out distractions like social media. And when it comes to the challenges of parenting, we share insights into teaching our children the value of setting boundaries and pursuing personal growth, ensuring they're equipped for emotional and mental resilience.

Wrapping up our session, Dr. Parker shares the secret sauce to his effective communication and time management—prompt responsiveness and the art of prioritizing. He tells us how subtracting certain commitments has opened doors to new opportunities, illustrating this through his own decision to scale back on podcasting to focus on other interests. We express our gratitude for the rich conversation and the connections forged, inviting listeners to apply these principles in their own lives for a holistic transformation that goes beyond the physical.

49. Unlocking the Healing Potential of Touch: Tyron Perry on the Power of Massage Therapy

Tue, 27 Feb 2024 04:00:00 -0600

When Tyron Perry started his journey as a massage therapist, little did he know it would transform lives, including his own, by unlocking the healing potential of touch. We sat down with Tyron, a master of kneading away life's physical and emotional stress, to distill two decades of his expertise into an enlightening conversation that promises to change how you view massage therapy. Our enlightening chat traverses the landscape of medical massage therapy and its pivotal role in aiding recovery from surgeries and cancer treatments, dispelling the myth that massages are merely a splurge rather than a necessity for maintaining health and wellness. Tyron's emphasis on the need for regular stretching resonates deeply, especially for those of us witnessing the creeping rigidity that comes with age.

The benefits of a tailored massage experience can't be overstressed, and we address misconceptions head-on, such as the notion that deep tissue massage is a universal solution. Through Tyron's narrative, you'll learn why a one-size-fits-all approach can actually backfire, causing more pain than relief. He advocates for a customized massage therapy regimen, which he credits for remarkable improvements in his clients' posture and pain management—proven by heartfelt testimonials. If your work keeps you tethered to a desk, Tyron's insights on consistent massage are a beacon guiding you toward a life less fraught with stress and discomfort.

As our conversation winds down, we tackle the practical side of things: how can you reach out and experience the transformative touch of professionals like Tyron? Even with a hacked Facebook page, our resourceful guest outlines alternative ways to connect, ensuring that his healing hands remain within reach. It's a reminder of the resilience of wellness practitioners and the dedication they bring to their craft, no matter what digital hurdles they face. My own foray into acting might just be a light-hearted footnote in our discussion, but the core of our exchange—the deep interconnection between our physical and emotional wellbeing—remains a profound takeaway for all.

We tackle the complexities of the three ADHD subtypes and why the condition might stealthily slip under the radar, manifesting as forgetfulness or disorganization, rather than the more conspicuous hyperactivity.

Join me for a heartfelt exploration of what it means to live with ADHD as a woman in today's world. We don't just stop at the difficulties; we celebrate the unique strengths that come hand-in-hand with this condition, and how, with the right support—be it through counseling, coaching, or medication—we can transform challenges into opportunities. I touch on the neurological roots of ADHD, the often misunderstood Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, and effective coping strategies that span from leveraging technology to nurturing open communication with loved ones. It's a conversation brimming with empathy and empowerment, urging for a surge in awareness and support across both personal and educational spheres, so that women with ADHD can craft lives not defined by their condition, but enriched by it.

Ep 39 Navigating the Shadows of Grief: Finding the Light of Hope with Wendy Kessler, MSW, FT

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 05:00:00 -0600

When hope seems like a distant glimmer, can its transformation lead us through the shadows of grief? This poignant question guided my conversation with Wendy Kessler, a grief specialist, as we delved into the heart of loss and the rebirth of hope. For every person who has stood in the storm of sorrow, this episode is a testament to the unwavering human spirit. My own journey of preparing for my grandfather's passing served as a somber backdrop to our discussion, revealing the raw complexities of family dynamics and the courage needed to embrace an ever-changing future.

Wendy's wisdom illuminated the nuanced dance between supporting those in pain and nurturing one's own flickering hope. We tackled the intricate task of accompanying a loved one, like my grandmother, through their darkest hours. Our dialogue wandered through the twists and turns of grief, unearthing the significance of a flexible mindset and the resilience of hope in the face of despair. Her insights remind us that it's not about correcting the course of grief but walking alongside it, with empathy and patience, as it forges its own unpredictable path.

We wrapped this heartfelt exploration by shining a light on the communal power in healing. The shared weight of grief feels less heavy when borne together, and this episode stands as a testament to that truth. Our exchange offered a space to honor the solidarity found within the grief community and the vital role of connection in finding solace. So, as we pay tribute to those who guide us through the nights of sorrow, remember, you're not alone in this journey. Let's walk it together, with hope as our compass, and find strength in each other's stories.

Ep 38 Understanding Anxiety, Overcoming Stigma: A Dialogue with Shobha George, LCSW

Tue, 12 Dec 2023 05:00:00 -0600

Imagine what it would be like if accessing mental health care was as easy as making a phone call. Imagine too, the relief of finding effective help for anxiety that fits seamlessly into your daily life. This dream is the reality for clients of Shobha George, owner of Manas therapy, our guest for today, who brings 25 years of experience in the mental health field and a wealth of knowledge on how telehealth is breaking down barriers and combating stigma in mental health.

As the curtain lifts on mental health, we explore the shadowed contours of anxiety disorders, their symptoms, and prevalence. From the youngest child to the oldest adult, anxiety spares no one. Yet, stigma continues to discourage many from seeking help. Together with Shobha, we dissect this stigma, especially in private practice settings, and reveal strategies to combat it, such as creating a non-judgmental environment and supplementing therapy with exercise and mental health apps.

Shifting gears towards treatment, we delve into Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, often used in conjunction with medication, for handling anxiety disorders. We shed light on exposure therapy, a specific approach for phobias, panic disorders, and social anxiety, driving home the point that help is available and accessible. Finally, we navigate the tricky terrain of decision-making processes and how specialized clinicians can guide us. All throughout our wellness journey, our goal remains constant and clear – to break the stigma of mental health and raise awareness about available treatments. Join us, as we journey towards understanding, acceptance, and healing.

The Art of Living: An American Mom's Perspective on French Lifestyle and Parenting with Caroline Vignolet

Tue, 08 Aug 2023 05:00:00 -0500

Have you ever wondered about the differences in parenting, food, and lifestyle habits between the United States and France? Then join us on a journey, as we converse with Caroline Vignolet, a U.S.-born real estate agent who has made France her home. She offers us a fresh perspective on how the slower, more deliberate pace of life in France has transformed her views on wellness, parenting, food, and cultural norms.

We delve into the stark contrasts and surprising similarities between the two nations, particularly around their educational systems and food habits. From the French's more relaxed approach to education, to their unhurried meal times and the intriguing differences between McDonald's Happy Meals on both sides of the Atlantic. We further examine how French culture encourages its people to fully utilize their vacation days and to spend quality time with family and friends.

OCD & Teen Mental Health with Shobha George, LCSW, LICSW, MSW, MPhil, MBA

Tue, 06 Jun 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome back to the Telewellness Hub podcast! On today’s episode, I talk with Shobha George, LCSW, LICSW, MSW, MPhil, MBA a California-based therapist who holds degrees in Social Work, Philosophy, and Business Administration.

Shobha specializes in working with teens, as well as with people who have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

Shobha shares about the realization she had at a young age, with the help of a teacher, that she’s gifted as a helper and healer.

She’s been constantly helping others since her education in Social Work began, and now has her own practice where she works in-person and remotely with people all over California, as well as people on the east coast in Massachusetts.
.

In this episode, we talk about how therapy can help teens who are dealing with mental health issues, and what some of the obstacles might be that would keep young people from beginning therapy.

Shobha mentions that cultural beliefs or stigmas, peer discouragement, and being unsure about what therapy entails are common reasons why teens hesitate. She also shares how she connects with parents and equips them to be a support on their teen’s mental health journey.

Then, we chat about the specific diagnosis of OCD. We’ve all heard the term “OCD” being used to describe things that wouldn’t clinically qualify, but Shobha reminds us that around 2% of the U.S. population has diagnosable levels of obsessive thoughts and related compulsions, as explained in the DSM 5.

She shares that methodical, well-studied treatment modalities like Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP, a sub-type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) can help reduce anxiety levels and lower the frequency of OCD-related thoughts and behaviors over time.

It was so cool to hear some hope-filled examples of patients feeling better after beginning ERP with Shobha, and I know her expertise and passion have aided many clients in their wellness journeys.

How to Thrive in a Toxic Work Environment and Be a Leading Business Owner with Brendan Sullivan, JD

Mon, 29 May 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome back to the Telewellness Hub podcast!

I’m Marta Hamilton, and today I’m talking with Brendan Sullivan from One Vie. One Vie a think tank that supports executives and owners by helping them create effective, sustainable solutions to their business challenges.

Brendan’s own personal story includes having to navigate away from the stress and sleep issues his own work environment and habits were causing. He soon noticed that he wasn’t alone in the need to find a path back to health and balance, and that many of his peers hadn’t mastered the methods they needed for health and happiness in the corporate world either.

Now, he helps leaders and execs create healthier environments for themselves and their teams. Coaching senior leaders in these high-level life skills can increase workplace satisfaction and get companies more results at the same time.

Brendan says that health is wealth, and the lack of it burns everyone out. He mentions that some bosses haven’t spent time in the trenches before they become leaders, and that he can help fill in the gaps for people who find themselves landing straight into an executive role.

Stress costs American companies 300 Billion dollars [source Stress.org], and is a common experience in the workplace. Brendan shares that he has seen many cases of isolation, overuse of caffeine and alcohol, insomnia, anxiety and more.

His consulting expertise helps leaders become healthier in their management style as well as personal life, which always has a ripple effect on the whole organization and its customers.

Brendan teaches us about creating better boundaries, evaluating our job happiness, expanding our knowledge and therefore options, and avoiding the debt trap in order to have more freedom and negotiation clout.

I loved hearing Brendan explain how he walks his clients through the important question of: what can I do to have more impact? Often times, we have blind spots, and we need an outside consultant or coach to point them out. Then, we can become more intentional and insightful leaders, wherever we may have influence in the different aspects of our lives.

He also talks about how to decide what’s worth worrying about, and what’s not, and how to move on when things are bothering you outside of work hours, so your energy and emotional availability doesn’t get eaten up.

I hope this episode inspires you to look at your work situation from a different point of view and gives you new ideas in creating the life you dream of having!

Co-Parenting: When There's Conflict with a Difficult Ex-Partner with Latisha Ellis, LPC, CAMS of Empowered Transitions Counseling

Tue, 23 May 2023 04:00:00 -0500

On today’s episode of the Telewellness Hub podcast, we hear from wellness expert Latisha Ellis of Empowered Transitions Counseling.

Latisha specializes in helping parents who find themselves having to navigate high-conflict coparenting situations.

She also hosts some amazing online support groups, including Breakup Support Group, Coparenting Support Group, Mom Rage Group, and Women’s Support Group.

This conversation is so valuable and needed. Many divorced and post-relationship coparents find themselves on difficult terrain.

Latisha shares an observation that she often sees in parents who are starting off on the coparenting journey: many parents can have blinders on. They may feel they’re making a decision for their child, but sometimes decisions can be partially fueled by a parent’s emotions about the other parent.

Some parents may feel like they’re shielding their children from the adult conflict, but Latisha reminds us that children are observant and pick up on emotion, like our behavior after a phone call with an ex, for instance.

We talk candidly in this episode about some of the effects that adult conflict can have on children, including anxiety, over-responsibility, and even self-harm in some instances.

And, Latisha gives us important reminders to ensure and pursue wellness in our families. These reminders include making sure we have professional counsel and help, getting into supportive community, and doing the work to disarm any triggers, so that we can conduct coparenting interactions without becoming as activated.

I really appreciated Latisha’s practical approach to helping coparents set up healthier, calmer communication, including her guided email program. Many times, it’s best to set boundaries around communication modes and allowed topics, as all that’s really necessary is factual planning around the child’s schedule and needs.

Latisha also reminds us that we’re human, we’re going to have emotions about difficult situations, and that it’s ok. It was so encouraging to hear her positive focus on guiding her clients to navigate and process those emotions, and her confidence that hard situations don’t have to defeat families.

Latisha also shared a beautiful personal story about what motivated her to focus on this area of counseling. After seeing her own close family member in a high-conflict coparenting situation, she knew that this important work was needed in the world.

She has helped many coparents and families achieve calmer, healthier dynamics, and those interpersonal interactions are such a huge part of the wellness journey.

Overcoming Millennial Struggles: Dealing with Being Overwhelmed and Stressed with Ann Robinson, LCSW

Tue, 16 May 2023 04:00:00 -0500

On today’s episode of the TeleWellness Hub podcast, we hear from Ann Robinson, LCSW about addressing, and even preventing, burnout. Knowledge and awareness of this topic can be such a huge asset in our journeys towards wellness.

Ann is a trauma therapist who specializes in helping clients with feelings of overwhelm, loneliness, and burnout.

Many of Ann’s clients are therapists themselves, and Ann shares that she was drawn to this specific kind of therapy, as well as supervision and consultation work, because she sees the importance of rest and self-care for those who work in the helping professions.

We talk about how and why people with marginalized identities can also find themselves carrying more loneliness or overwhelm, and what people might look for to find a good connection with a therapist in that instance.

Ann shares her beautiful perspective on practicing curiosity in the midst of life-change, and explore what it might feel like to resist just “bouncing back” after the pandemic uncovered different possibilities and challenges in our lives.

We have choices even within seasons of unforeseen grief, change and transition, and Ann encourages us to care for ourselves well as we re-evaluate our commitments and community.

Wellness can be defined as “the quality or state of being in good health, especially as an actively sought goal” (source: SSM Health), so I love that Ann brought up the intentional examination of our wellness, and reminded us we’re worth it.

Wellness is more of a journey than a destination, so every step we take towards health is a victory in itself. By listening to this podcast today, you’re expanding your understanding of what resources and support are available to you, and investing in your own wellness.

Normalizing Grief with Grief Wellness Expert Wendy Kessler, MSW, FT

Tue, 09 May 2023 04:00:00 -0500

On today’s episode of the Telewellness Hub podcast, we hear from Wendy Kesler.

Wendy is a grief specialist, and owner of Griefguide Consulting LLC. She has a background as a Hospice Bereavement Specialist, and she walks with her clients through various experiences of grief and loss by offering a compassionate, listening presence.

Wendy’s approach emphasizes the role of being a supportive guide. She sees every one of her clients as the expert in the room, because it’s their own personal grief journey.

While working in Hospice, Wendy saw first-hand that our society contains a lot of common misconceptions about grief.

For instance, parents tend to hide their grief expressions from their children, and there seems to be an expectation to grieve silently and alone as opposed to finding community. Also, many medical professionals don’t have formal training in how grief works or how to interact with or help people who have just lost their loved one.

Grief is one of the most common experiences in life, and it’s proven that having someone there to offer support and empathy can aid the grief and healing process. When we grieve, we need a witness to validate it, and that doesn’t often happen in our social structures.

Wendy also shares that some types of grief have even less social support than average, such as LGBTQ+ relationship loss, or the death of an ex-spouse.

Wendy is passionate about social education in this area, and hopes to spread awareness about how to grieve in healthier ways, combatting the typical narrative about maintaining unhealthy levels of independence during grief.

I love how Wendy describes non-judgmental compassion. We can know it’s their pain, not ours to fix, but we can create space where the grieving person can express whatever they need to express. Grief brings up emotions and we need to stop judging or comparing them in order to accept and process.

Wendy also mentions that some of us can force ourselves to have more of an intellectual experience initially during grief - making decisions and analyzing our situation. She encourages clients to experience and validate the emotions that come up in grief as well.

She also reminds us that mental wellness is being on the path of growth. In seasons of grief, this path is often uneven and unpredictable, but we can remember it’s not about arriving, but intentionally being on a path, and wherever we’re at is beautiful.

Coping with Anxiety and Thriving as a Couple with Wellness Expert Ashley Williams

Tue, 02 May 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome back to the Telewellness Hub podcast! Today we hear from Ashley Williams, Founder and Clinical Director of Cardinal Hope Mental Health Counseling Services. Ashley specializes in working with individuals who have experienced anxiety, as well as couples that anxiety has effected.

She’s a licensed and board certified Mental Health Counselor and LPC. She received her bachelor’s from Morrisville State College, and her master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an Interdisciplinary Trauma Studies Certification from the State University of New York at Oswego.

Ashley helps her clients quiet the noise of anxious thoughts and often sees results in the areas of more peaceful sleep, and improved communication in relationships. She uses CBT and Gottman Therapy in many of her sessions.

As Ashley began to describe the unique challenges that some of her clients tended to face during the pandemic, and during political unrest, two important questions emerged: how did she make sure she took care of herself while helping others, and what unique considerations might people of color and clients in minority or marginalized groups need?

Ashley shared some great insight about self-care as a therapist, including tuning in to what comes up for her, addressing any anxiety she might be carrying, utilizing resources like a network of therapists she can check in with, and taking moments to rest and unwind. She reads and meditates (but also watches reality TV which we all know is part of the self-care toolbox too).

She stresses the importance of acknowledging and validating her client’s concerns and anxieties when they’re related to social justice and legislation. Ashley also shares how she refrains from being “the expert,” even with clients who share similar cultural or ethnic backgrounds, because every individual has varied experiences in life.

When seeing couples, Ashley initially speaks with them together, but makes sure to spend time with each person individually, to make sure there is space to share openly with her.

We also talk about the importance of breathing, and how she coaches her clients to incorporate breathing and mindfulness into their lives. She also helps her clients find ways to journal or voice memo their feelings and experiences in order to release.

I loved how she described the thought exercise of imagining the worst thing that could happen. This can often disarm worry, and help us realize that we might just be able to handle whatever is ahead after all.

Anxiety is an individualized journey with varying triggers, so I know Ashley’s listening skills and breadth of insight about the topic are an asset to her myriad of clients.

Ep 5 Relationship Goals: Communication and Attachment with Relationship Wellness Expert Greg Lozano

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome back to the Telewellness Hub podcast!

On today’s episode, I talk with Gregorio (Greg) Lozano, a licensed professional counselor in Texas and owner of Branch of Wellness Counseling.

He began in the field of mental health about 13 years ago as a case manager and quickly realized that he’d be in the helping profession for the long run. He uses different modes of treatment such as cognitive and interrelational therapies, and conducts sessions with English-and Spanish-speaking clients.

He enjoys couples and relationships work, and uses his knowledge of attachment styles to guide clients to more security and lower anxiety.

Greg teaches his clients about attachment styles, providing psychoeducation to equip them and help increase their self-knowledge. I also loved hearing Greg talk about remaining aware of his own attachment style, and how we can all achieve a more secure attachment style in the context of our relationships.

For example, a person with an avoidant attachment style tends to shut down when faced with a hard conversation. Or, a person with an insecure attachment style may come across as needy or demanding, and can tend to experience anxiety around abandonment and other possible negative outcomes that they feel may occur in their relationships.

Greg shared that a healthy relationship would contain both partners being available to each other, as well as feeling secure to reach out, which can be described as emotional dependability.

In this episode, Greg offered some amazing tips on active listening in order to connect and create safety. For instance, if your partner comes home and wants to share about a hard day, instead of offering solutions (like “have you tried talking to so-and-so”), repeating back or rephrasing what your partner shared (like “what I hear you saying is, it was challenging to…”).

Greg also reminds us that one of the most important dynamics in a relationship is how couples mend and reconnect after disagreement. He suggests that couples create emotional safety first, remembering that it’s a partnership even when there’s disagreement. This can include reaching for your partner’s hands, asking if they’re ready to talk about, and conveying tenderness.

Greg has a heart to serve other mental health professionals and physicians, and has set up his practice for utmost privacy and anonymity. Greg offers a free initial consultation and he’s also created flexibility in payment methods in case someone feels they want to avoid having a mental health visit on record.

Ep 4 Trusting Yourself with Money with Financial Wellness Coach Hanna Morrell

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Today on the TeleWellness Hub podcast, we get to hear from financial coach Hanna Morell, owner of Pacific Stoa.

Hanna’s first client - and according to her, her worst as well - was herself. She found herself in need of greater financial wellness, and dove into a learning journey that set her on a path to discover how to trust herself, gamify spending habits, and detach from the perfectionism and apathy pendulum.

Hanna talks about the financial services industry’s common limitations, and how she discovered that what she really needed, and what a lot of her clients need, is a trauma-informed, person-centered curriculum that detaches people’s self-worth from their money.

We talk about the feelings of shame that can often be involved in the topic of money. Many people experience stress, frustration, and sometimes even despair regarding their money, so it’s obviously a really important area to examine and pursue wellness.

Hanna also talks about working with couples and facilitating relaxed, fun conversation around spending and saving, instead of the stereotypical stressful arguments.

Hanna seems to have a superpower of listening well and pulling out the underlying issue behind a financial situation. Then, she empowers people to build a customized pathway by using her curriculum and tools.

In this episode, I learned that a huge part of financial wellness is trusting yourself. This creates resilience, and awareness of behavior without judgement. Once her clients build these skills, the details of their budgets can fall into place more easily.

Hanna shares about how the procrastination cycle can be interrupted by self-trust. Trusting ourselves can result in more openness and choice in life, and make it easier to trust ourselves in more and more areas of life - which results in a healthier relationship with money, among other good things.

I’m excited to try Hanna’s Target Spending Game, to question the wants-verses-needs paradigm, and to model trusting myself to my kids! I am so glad we got to be inspired from Hanna together today.

Ep 3 Unveiling the True Meaning of Wellness: A Transformative Journey with Marta Hamilton, LPC-S Founder of TeleWellness Hub

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Unfortunately sometimes the wellness world can be overwhelming and complicated. Today we go over: What is wellness?

The Global Wellness Institute defines wellness as “the active pursuit of activities, choices and lifestyles that lead to a state of holistic health.”

Of course, wellness is multidimensional. Most models of wellness include spiritual, physical, mental, financial, relational, emotional, environmental, and many more dimensions of wellness.

If you’re interested in making a shift from poor health to better health in one or more of these arenas, I hope this podcast (and our website) can be a helpful resource to you on your journey.

We’ll examine our mindsets, introduce ourselves to expert resources, and facilitate accessible, professional help wherever needed. And, unlike some other wellness podcasts out there, the guests here will be experts that you can actually reach out to and follow up with if you so choose.

My hope is that this podcast can inspire you and create more self-understanding around what you need, and how you can apply the quality information you’ll receive to your own life.

In our very busy modern world, it can be easy to complicate the wellness journey. Sometimes we’re tempted to put too much American hustle into our wellness approach, and often there’s a simpler and more guilt-free way to explore wellness.

Thanks for embarking on this wellness journey with us.

Ep 2 Autism Awareness Month Special Feature Episode with Wendela Marsh, Award Winning Author, Speaker, and CEO of Adult Autism Assessment & Services

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome back to the TeleWellness Hub podcast!

This is an Autism Awareness Month special episode! Today we hear from Wendela Whitcomb Marsh, PhD, an award-winning author and expert on neurodiversity assessment and care.

Dr. Wendela has been married to, and mothered, late-diagnosed individuals with Autism. She believes in expanding the number of neurodiversity-affirming therapy and other resources available for those who may be wondering if they have autism or other types of neurodiverse wiring in their brains.

Wendela shares how studies have shown that neurotypical people can often talk with other neurotypical people easily and autistic people can often talk with other autistic people easily as well. It’s when a conversation contains one of each that challenges may occur. Therefore, it’s unfair to always expect neurodivergent people to mask and talk like neurotypical people.

"Autistic people, and those who teach them, work with them, and love them, are among her favorite people in the world". Her books include: Recognizing Autism in Women and Girls, Autism Parent Handbook, Dating While Autistic, Independent Living with Autism, Homeschooling Autism Style, and the ABC’s of Autism in the Classroom. She provides

Her practice offers answers for people who are wondering if they're neurodivergent or have Autism, and advice about where to go from there after an assessment

Her team also connects people with relevant resources, depending on their personal goals. These resources include specialist therapists, life coaches, dating coaches, employment coaches and more.

It was so wonderful to hear Wendela’s heart to robustly address the “now what” question that people usually have after a diagnosis.

Wendela created a quiz, using characters from the original Star Treck, as a fun way to assess whether someone should possibly be tested for Autism. She also has a lot of information so that people can plan and know what to expect, before they dive into a consultation.

All of her assessment tools can be answered with true/false or number ratings in case someone’s not a big talker, but can also record more information if someone wants to write more.

If someone is screened and it’s likely that they don’t have autism, the team provides that up-front information and doesn’t charge them for anything.

Some people need a formal assessment so they can offer it to their school or place of employment, while others just want to know for themselves. So, she offers information about both of these options on the website as well.

Ep 1 How to Easily Create Healthy Recipe & Food Choices with Recipe Developer Dominique Sullivan from Perchance to Cook blog

Tue, 25 Apr 2023 04:00:00 -0500

Welcome to the TeleWellness Hub Podcast!

Today I’m talking with Dominique Sullivan. Dominique runs the wonderful food blog PerChance to Cook, which contains hundreds of healthy clean recipes for a delicious life.

Growing up with a European mom, Dominique was always aware that foods in the U.S. often have more processed ingredients than in many other countries. Later, her husband began to face some autoimmune issues, so they decided to dive in to eating clean as a couple and family.

The decision to focus on healthy eating choices as a part of their health and wellness journey made them both feel better and now Dominique shares her healthy recipes (and beautiful food photos) with the world. Today’s episode contains many helpful tips on where to start if you’re looking to eat clean, and even how to clean up your make up and household ingredients over time.

Many healthy recipes have complicated substitutions or expensive flour combinations in them that can make healthy eating an overwhelming process. But now with four kids and years of recipe-inventing experience, Dominique’s ability to create beautifully simple, clean recipes makes her such a helpful asset to all of us by making healthy eating easy and approachable.

We chat about what organic produce to prioritize, how to cut down on sugar, what it means to eat Paleo, food prepping and utilizing leftovers.

Dominique also reminds us to live a little, explaining why indulging in whole-food-based deserts can be important in a balanced life, and a well-adjusted family.

Today’s episode is a good reminder that we can all cut down on unhealthy, unnecessary chemicals and additives in our daily lives. Dominique shares how to utilize the info on the Environmental Working Group’s research to make the changes that will move the needle the most.

We touch on some examples of ways we can “vote with our money” as consumers, which will influence food and product manufacturers to make natural health important in their future products.
