Ep. 8 “What is it to suffer and grieve?” with Dr. Steve Gioielli, PSYD.

In this episode, Bryan sits with licensed clinical psychologist, Dr. Steve Gioielli, PsyD, to explore the ideas and experiences of suffering, pain and grief. Dr. Gioielli makes some helpfully clear distinctions between these notions and provides thoughtful insight into how to navigate our own suffering and grief more effectively. Dr. Gioielli goes further and also provides some powerful reasons for why so many of us can find it difficult to come to grips with our own pain, suffering and grief.

Ep. 7, “What is Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy?”

New podcast episode of Everything's Fine available today!

Allie Runkel, MA, LPCC is a licensed professional clinical counselor who is trained & certified in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and Psychedelic Integration. Originally from Northern California, Allie shares she moved to Laguna Beach, trading redwoods for palm trees, and that putting roots down closer to the ocean has supported her on her own healing journey.

Of her clinical work, Allie says, “While I work from a place of hope and inspiration, I am not afraid to be with your pain. We cannot lead anyone further than we have gone ourselves and therefore I am a committed client to therapy myself and a lifelong seeker of knowledge and depth. I am always finding spaces and trainings to widen and strengthen my capacity to support my clients. I am gifted at providing a warm space for the wide range of feelings to be felt and processed, compassionately meeting you right where you are.”

This month, we’d like to highlight a resource we value: Eli Gosselin, formerly Eli Irving, LMFT.

She has experience in both residential and private practice settings, and enjoys depth and somatic psychology work.

Thank you, Eli, for being a trusted practitioner in our community and for helping us grow! We’re always excited to learn from you.

We are sharing mental health resources in honor of Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

All stats have been pulled from to highlight the need for more comprehensive mental health care for the LGBTQ community. On a larger scale level, this perhaps looks like more mental health programs and offerings specifically for this community - taking LGBTQ community mental health seriously. Perhaps, on an individual level, this could even start with us all cultivating a deeper sense of inclusivity & understanding, in whatever way that looks like for you.
