Episode Description

<p>Welcome back to Therapy Chat! This week I'm sharing a new interview with Dr. Hillary McBride, a clinician, teacher, author, speaker, trainer, and host of "Other People's Problems" podcast on CBC. </p><p>One of the things I wanted to discuss with her is how they ensure ethics and consent from the clients featured in the therapy sessions shared on the show. I loved her answer!</p><p>We also discussed spiritual abuse, psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, the research on the COVID pandemic as a transformative experience and more! Hillary writes about embodiment, trauma, eating disorders, mental health and spirituality; her bestselling book The Wisdom Of Your Body was released in 2021, Practices for Embodied Living was released in 2024, and her most recent book "Holy Hurt: understanding spiritual trauma and the process of healing" was released April 2025. </p><p>Her award-winning CBC podcast Other People's Problems was mentioned in the Wall Street Journal and New York Times as essential listening, and she is the co-developer of Katalyst Mental Health Ketamine Assisted Therapy program.</p><p>Hillary McBride's headshot photo credit: Lily Glass</p><p>Find Hillary McBride's website here: <a href="http://www.hillarylmcbride.com/" rel="nofollow">www.hillarylmcbride.com</a></p><p>Read the <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09515070.2024.2354272" rel="nofollow">article Hillary mentioned about transformation after the pandemic here.</a></p><p>Therapists, <a href="https://traumatherapistnetwork.com/for-therapists" rel="nofollow">visit the new For Therapists page</a> on the Trauma Therapist Network website for discounts on training, recommended resources and more. </p><p>On behalf of our friends at Unyte Health, we are pleased to share this Trauma Recovery Toolkit, a free resource aimed to support you as you work with clients who present with trauma and nervous system dysregulation. <a href="https://learn.unyte.com/trauma-recovery-toolkit-laura-reagan" rel="nofollow">Download the toolkit</a> and access an exclusive discount code!</p><p>Find a trauma therapist near you via <a href="http://findtraumatherapy.com/" rel="nofollow">findtraumatherapy.com</a>!
