Bio:

**Babs Walters**

As an author and motivational speaker, I work to raise the voices of the family secret keepers. As a survivor of child sexual abuse and domestic violence, I know firsthand how critical it is to break the silence. I am on a mission to help other survivors shine a light into the dark places where secrets grow into deep shame. By turning up the volume and turning off the shame, we can return to our true selves. We are not what happened to us—we are the meaning and purpose we give to what happened to us. My story is not for everyone, but for those who need it, I hear you. I see you. It happened to me too.

Constance Scharff, PhD – Institute for Complementary and Indigenous Mental Health: Addiction & Trauma Recovery

By thehealingplacepodcast | March 29, 2024

Here is the link I promised to share in the mid-episode pause: https://teriwellbrock.com/request-a-quote/

Such a deep dive with Dr. Constance Scharff, PhD, award-winning and bestselling author, international mental health educator, and badass leader who helps women become empowered to create meaningful change. Please join us as we discuss:

Dr. Constance’s various books on addiction and trauma recovery
her insights on complementary healing modalities
her global journeys and the healing wisdom shared
and so much more!

Bio:

Constance Scharff, also known by her Hebrew name Ahuva Batya, has a PhD in Transformative Studies, specializing in radically transformative personal experience. She is a full time author and speaker, traveling around the world to help people overcome trauma and addiction.

Dr. Scharff is an award-winning, bestselling author. Her debut novel, The Path to God’s Promise, debuts October 13, 2023. In this book, Elinor Simentov, a Jewish women of no renown, is asked by God to share an urgent message about climate change, to let us know clearly that we are on a dangerous path and need to recreate our communities now. This book examines issues of faith, self-determination, and our power to transform both our lives and literally to change the world.

Dr. Scharff’s other books include: Rock to Recovery: Music as a Catalyst for Human Transformation, winner of a National Indie Excellence Award, a GOLD Award in the Nonfiction Book Awards and an Award of Distinction in the 28th Communicator Awards; the Amazon #1 best-selling Ending Addiction for Good; and the award-winning poetry book Meeting God at Midnight. Dr. Scharff also reviews books for the New York Journal of Books.

In her role as an addiction and trauma researcher, Dr. Scharff brings the latest in evidence-based, complementary addiction and trauma treatment information to those who suffer worldwide from addiction and trauma. She has spoken at conferences and shared information with researchers and mental health professionals globally. Her passion is working with mental health professionals to use a wide range of practices that improve treatment outcomes. She also works to eliminate the stigma that is too often associated with addiction, trauma, and other mental health issues, so that individuals in need of care will be able to receive that support. In 2019, she received St. Lawrence University’s Sol Feinstone Humanitarian Award for her advocacy and work on behalf of those with mental health, trauma, and substance use issues.

Dr. Scharff’s current writing project is a nonfiction look at the concept of bravery. A Year of Living Bravely is both a memoir and a heuristic inquiry into how some people work to find solutions to seemingly overwhelming personal and community problems. Through the lens of her experience personally recovering from addiction and trauma, Dr. Scharff is exploring both the everyday — what we eat and the choices we make — to the larger impacts of global systems on indigenous and marginalized communities. It’s an ambitious project!

*Dr. Scharff is currently traveling for the book’s research. To support her research, you can donate to her Go Fund Me effort.*

Dr. Scharff is a member of the Society for Consciousness Studies, American Psychological Association, Interamerican Society of Psychology, World Federation for Mental Health, and the International Society for Contemplative Research. Additionally, she is the founder and director of the Institute for Complementary and Indigenous Mental Health Research, a consortium of scholars and practitioners working to expand access to and the definitions of mental healthcare. She is also a life-long Girl Scout.

Eileen Marder-Mirman – Spiritual Healing: From Hiddenness to Open-Hearted

By thehealingplacepodcast | February 9, 2024

Here is the link I promised to share in the mid-episode pause: https://teriwellbrock.com/request-a-quote/

I thoroughly enjoyed meeting and learning from Eileen Marder-Mirman, a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor, spiritual healing teacher, and author. Please join us as we discuss:

the inspiration behind her book How I Think I Should Be is B***S***
her role a spiritual healing teacher
the importance of spiritual healing along the healing journey
and so much more!

Bio:

Eileen Marder-Mirman’s passion is to help people be free. Throughout her entire life, having the normal experiences of grief, loss, and celebration, she has always stayed aligned with knowing she is part of a larger reality and is committed to help others feel guided, and on the path to healing and authenticity.

As a New York State Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a spiritual healing teacher for more than 45 years, Eileen specializes in integrating psychotherapy, spirituality, meditation, and various forms of alternative healing in her private practice. For the past 20 years, she has been a senior teacher and supervisor at A Society of Souls, The School for Nondual Healing and Awakening.

Eileen has led numerous healing retreats in Europe and the United States and has practiced meditation for 50 years. She graduated from Syracuse University with a Master’s in Counseling in 1977 and continuously studies new psychological and healing modalities such as Nondual Kabbalistic Healing, Gestalt Therapy, PSYCH-K®, energy psychology, Therapeutic Touch, Reiki, and the therapeutic use of aromatherapy.

Eileen believes that it’s never too late to wake up to becoming the authentic person you were born to be. And most importantly, we don’t have to stay stuck in the patterns of our history!

Eileen lives in New York with her husband and two cats and makes sure that she sees her grandson every week. When she isn’t healing or teaching, she is knitting, exploring art and going to the theater in New York (again and again). You might also find her obsessing over new apartments or recovering from colds she gets from her grandson’s daycare. Her greatest joy in life is her family both near and far.

Antonia – What Happens When Fear Meets Love?

By thehealingplacepodcast | November 15, 2023

I so much enjoyed this enlightening conversation with Antonia, Registered Psychotherapist, Plant Medicine Integration Counselor, Transmuter/Facilitator, Ayurvedic Counselor, Yoga and Meditation Teacher, Author, Retreat Facilitator, and is now in training for Plant Medicine Facilitation. Please join us as we discuss:

the inspiration behind her book, Dismantling The 3rd Dimension – Transforming our Trauma on the Road from Tribe to Collective
her philosophies on generational and ancestral trauma
her role as counselor
the implications of Ayurvedic approaches to healing
and so much more!

Bio:

Awakening the Alchemy of Awareness

Antonia’s accelerated transformation started in 2006 when she discovered her capacity to dissolve lifetimes of pain in her own body through a harrowing journey inward. Raising the vibration by inviting a deep seeing of the truth of pain, she now assists clients in enabling their process of dissolution of ancient trauma stories.

Antonia spent the early decades building up knowledge, intellect, data, and credibility. Now she is learning to unlearn. To expand awareness, she disassembles the infrastructure of the mind and surrenders it to the heart. As an integrative therapist, she blends Western modalities of therapeutic relationship with the metaphysical transmutation of the trauma of separation. Antonia helps people see the pain as a signal and opportunity for expansion; to bring awareness to pain and integrate our hidden suffering into the greater whole. She takes people into deeper levels of seeing and knowing through her one-on-one healing sessions, online modules, workshops, and retreats.

Her goal is to assist healers, seekers, and psychonauts get ready for a wave of healing as our collective, ancient traumas surface more rapidly and readily on our path to the next reality. This is her passion. This is her destiny. This is her collective.

Madeline Popelka – A Trauma Survivor’s Insights on How You’re Going to Be Okay

By thehealingplacepodcast | September 29, 2023

I was blessed to have engaged in a beautiful conversation with Madeline Popelka, writer, trauma survivor, and mental health, and LGBTQ+ advocate. Please join us as we discuss:

Madeline’s personal story of PTSD and triumph
her insights on trauma recovery
the inspiration behind her Instagram page @healingfromptsd
the release of her book You’re Going to Be Okay: 16 Lessons on Healing After Trauma
and so much more!

Bio:

I’m Madeline, a writer, trauma survivor, and mental health, and LGBTQ+ advocate.

Born and raised in the Bay Area, I grew up in an Asian American household where mental health was never discussed. As a daughter of a refugee, intergenerational trauma runs through my family, and I struggled with my mental health for my entire life. I thought that I was broken and damaged beyond repair, and I suffered in isolation. And when I started to experience PTSD symptoms in my late twenties, I didn’t know the first step in getting help.

Nobody taught me how to heal, and I knew I wasn’t alone. As I began learning life lessons along my healing journey, I felt an urge to share my insights so other sufferers like myself wouldn’t feel so isolated. In February 2020, I created a space for other trauma survivors, @HealingFromPTSD, which quickly became the largest trauma healing community on Instagram.

Through healing, I’ve discovered and reconnected with parts of myself, and I’ve cultivated a sense of internal peace and freedom that I’d never experienced before. I’m on a mission to help others do the same.

My first book, You’re Going to Be Okay, was released in September 2022 (order it here!), and I have a newsletter, Lost & Found, about healing, self-discovery, and more. Sign up here.

Tina Davidson – A Discussion on: Let Your Heart Be Broken – Life and Music from a Classical Composer

By thehealingplacepodcast | September 15, 2023

This was a beautifully enchanting conversation with classical composer and author, Tina Davidson. Please join us as we discuss:

stories on Tina’s creative processes
her empowering piece Blue Curve of the Earth
her philosophies on trauma recovery, dissociation, and forgiveness
the release of her memoir Let Your Heart Be Broken – Life and Music from a Classical Composer
and so much more!

Bio:

Tina Davidson, a highly regarded American composer, creates music that stands out for its emotional depth and lyrical dignity. Lauded for her authentic voice, The New York Times has praised her “vivid ear for harmony and colors.”

Her memoir, Let Your Heart Be Broken, Life and Music from a Classical Composer, is available from Boyle & Dalton. Her memoir traces her extraordinary life in equally lyrical language, juxtaposing memories, journal entries, notes on compositions in progress, and insights into the life of an artist – and a mother – at work.

REVIEW“Let Your Heart Be Broken is a consummate read in its entirety, exploring with uncommon sensitivity and poetic insight the fundamentals of love, forgiveness, creativity, and what it takes to emerge from the inner darkness into a vast vista of light, rooted in the life-tested truth that “we are, in the end, a measure of the love we leave behind.” (Maria Popova, The Marginalian)
