Listen above or on your favorite podcast platform.

Show Notes:

You’re going to hear some courageous and vulnerable stuff right now. My guest today is a therapist who uses two methods to help her clients heal trauma. Her own healing journey started in an unexpected way.

Helen Beynon is a somatic therapist and IFS-informed practitioner. She loves working with folks to transform trauma and build their capacity to navigate a tumultuous world.

I met her when she was a teacher in my IFS learning.

She’s based in British Columbia.

Here's some of what we talked about:

  • How she found Somatic Experiencing as a client

  • Doing deep emotional and physical healing she didn’t expect

  • Her personal experiences that led her to learn both IFS and Somatic Experiencing as a practitioner

  • How she integrates the 2 methods

  • How she now listens to and uses her anger rather than pushing it away
