Join me for a profoundly moving episode with Stephen Andrew, LCSW, LADC, CCS, a remarkable storyteller, trainer, therapist, and author. Stephen's journey is a testament to the power of heart-centered therapy and compassionate practice.
Stephen Andrew is not just a therapist; he's a compassionate guide on the path of healing. His work as a member of the International Motivational Interviewing Network of Trainers (MINT) and his extensive experience in motivational interviewing, addiction counseling, and trauma therapy have made him a renowned expert in the field.
In this episode, we explore the following themes:
1. Heart-Centered Therapy and Compassionate Practice:
Stephen shares the transformative power of changing people through the heart, not just the mind. In this discussion, we explore the core concepts of Motivational Interviewing and the art of compassionate helping.
2. Radical Acceptance and Compassion:
Stephen delves into the essence of compassion, emphasizing that it's not about fixing but gently engaging in a process. He discusses the importance of radical acceptance, shifting away from the deficit model, and creating attachment as a therapist.
3. Trauma Whisper and Empathy:
We unravel the concept of the "Trauma Whisper" - those protective beliefs that stem from trauma. Stephen shares strategies on how to respond to these whispers with empathy, guiding individuals towards their hopes and dreams.
4. Training Helpers and Self-Care:
Stephen imparts wisdom on training helpers, emphasizing their responsibility for the intervention, not the outcome. He discusses the importance of working from the heart, practicing compassion, and shares his insights on therapist support and self-care.
5. Creating Belonging through Community:
Stephen talks about the communities he has created, providing a sense of belonging. These communities become spaces where individuals can connect, share, and heal together.
Tune in and learn how to hear both the trauma whispers and the whispers of hopes and dreams, equipping you to guide your clients on their healing journey with empathy and understanding.
