(the workshop qualifies for Advanced Accreditation specialty hours and is open to practitioners who meet the basic Clinical EFT training level below*).

I have had a goal to do a podcast for some years. But also stressed about not having the time to release episodes weekly! (day job and all). But then I thought – I binge listen to podcasts all the time (whole seasons) – so let’s do that! And so 2024 saw the creation of Season 1 of The 4th Wave in Therapy podcast! Now available – all 11 episodes!! (and we are already ½ way through Season 2 recordings).

Here is the official blurb: Welcome to The 4th Wave in Therapy, the podcast exploring the latest breakthroughs in mental health care! Join us as we dive into cutting-edge advancements, from emerging technologies to innovative approaches reshaping how we heal and grow. Each episode features expert insights from clinicians and innovators, offering you a unique look at the future of therapy. Whether you're a professional or someone navigating mental well-being, this is your go-to for the next wave of mental health care. Get ready to be inspired and empowered!

Here is what you can look forward to this weekend 🎙

-Dr Joe Vitale on the power of forgiveness
-Brad Yates, the one and only, on his own journey to EFT
-Dr Megan Lee on the role of nutritional psychiatry on mood
-Naomi Janzen on recovering from depression with EFT
-Dr Kim D’Eramo on the future of medicine
-Mary Sise on transformational tools for change
-Dr Bob Schwarz on the 4th wave in therapy
-Dr Christine Gibson on being trauma informed in medicine
-Tapas Fleming on the evolution of Tapas Acupressure Techniques
-Dr Christine McKee on how to achieve relational health with everyone in your life
-Dr Phil Friedman on the history of therapy – this is my favourite interview of the season and a very special one. Phil had trained in psychodynamic therapies and was a PhD student when CBT emerged! Then he saw the birth of the 4th wave with EFT, EMDR and more. Several months after we recorded, Phil passed (he was still seeing clients in his late 80s). I am so privileged to have known him over the past decade and to have recorded this interview with one of the greats. I hope you enjoy.
