A major gem here! “Traumatic events are not stored on a timeline…. When you go back to one, you have no clue that it happened 30 years ago. It feels like it’s happening now”.
Hi Patrick. I stumbled upon your videos randomly about 4 days ago, and have watched many. Your work is amazing. First, I’d like to say that it’s awesome that you continue to mention your mentor, interviewed here, repeatedly throughout your videos. 🙂
Wow -- fascinating about the power of writing and dialogue in re-programming the brain. Knowing the non-dominate hand connects to the child voice generates curiosity to try it. Thank you for posting this.
Thank you for this video. I could have listened to all the inbetween bits you recorded from this interview! I'm in therapy for my own childhood trauma and working through IFS and Parts therapy to navigate reparenting my inner child. The thing that struck my the most from the interview was her clients being able to "have their day in court"...I truly believe we need to have those moments. So many times I am hushed and my story swept under the rug bc it makes everyone uncomfortable. I think part of my healing journey needs to have that aspect included. Otherwise I think I'm stuck feeling ashamed for the angry parts I feel about it all.
As a fairly new LPC (Associate) I have not read many books or heard many teachers that relate to the depth of what I had felt was my personal perspective I had for my clients more than this (and all of your other videos.) I realize that much of it relates to my own work on my own life, but it so helps to feel a bit validated in what I felt really helped me and what I thought would really help the clients I have seen and hope to see. THANK you!! (Would join your upcoming training if I had not already committed to something else.)
I'm not sure if it's my age, or that she reminds of me a former elementary school teacher, but I am genuinely so pleased by Amanda Curtin and listening to her tips and tools of therapy. I would love any recommendations from her, books or videos.
I feel so frustrated because I have had abuse my whole life but I can not find a therapist like this to help me. When I listen to this video I feel overwhelmed and can’t seem to process what they are saying. I had alcoholic parents- emotional abusive foster parents then married a narcissist. I am continually criticized and rejected still and isolate to not get triggered. I feel so stuck but have no one to help me. The counselors I’ve had shame me or make me feel I’m not worth helping. The last one just ghosted me and when I contacted her she said she’d been busy and was very dismissive. 😢 Please help me or direct me to someone who can help me. I want to get better and I’ve wasted so many years being stuck and feeling helpless.
I’m so sorry you weren’t treated kindly as a child 💔 Patrick has a list of RRP trained therapists on his site. While most of them seem to be in the US, there are a few outside as well. I first planned to join a group with Amanda Fowler in BC, Canada but eventually chose Rivi Brussel in Israel because her groups are more diverse. If you google “RRP childhood trauma therapy”, you are likely to find other therapists not on the list. Hope this helps 💛
@@angelaowen1513 Patrick has a list of RRP therapists on his website. (Link in his “About” on his main page.) If there aren’t any near you, then google “RRP therapists” and your zip code (if you’re in the US) or “near me”. You deserve a therapist who treats you with kindness and respect.❤❤❤
❤🎉thankyou i feel like I've experienced a weight being lifted A memory came up when you explained about our left hand/ inner child/ story ... Like a store ! Literally My father raged beat and shamed me once for writing a story he found in my little orange desk .. I found her recently, my little angel ... She is so pure and innocent! She is so sweet and funny!!! I'm listening to her now ❤With the care of all the Elders gone before me. I'm very Grateful ❤ About time we all had a lot more fun frankly🎉
Thank you for always bringing us great information and opportunities to grow and heal! Your gentle approach is part of my healing! Just to know someone really gets this trauma I'm going through helps me to apply these techniques! Perhaps finally voicing my truth! What a great mentor you have in your healing journey!
Yeah, those groups sound like they are great... for some people. Not for neurodivergent people, or Indian families, or Black or Latino or Asian or... you get my point. 🤷🏻
There needs to be More Safe Free places to go for Talk Therapy. To be able to listen to others and what they had to deal with and what they found helpful. To Know what is said ,is said in a Safe place and not spread as gossip just so the gossiper feels good about themselves being able to talk to other's outside the group to make them look good. Talk Therapy can be extremely helpful.
Your videos are being published with low audio volume. You might try bumping things up a few notches in production. It makes them a bit difficult to watch.
Hi Patrick, I came here through your channel after listening to (and positively commenting on) your diagnostic Childhood PTSD trauma video based on the ACE study last night. Today, I very much enjoyed listening to this therapists interesting and valuable work and learning about genograms, experiential therapy and dialoguing. However, I’d like to make a comment with the intention of positive feedback on how this interview was arranged. I hope you can take this the way I mean it. When the therapist is talking, only she is on screen. She speaks fairly quickly and without natural pauses as one might in a lecture. It was therefore quite distracting and uncomfortable to hear your fairly frequent ‘affirmatives’ throughout the video. Had your face been on screen, and had the video been styled as a Q&A or interview session, your verbal affirmations would have felt more appropriate. The net effect of your voice in this video was not helpful but felt like unnatural interruptions (on a few occasions you spoke over her). I feel it would be a better set up to choose between a Q&A/interview style, with you speaking when she stopped, and vice versa, or to let her speak without the off-screen distractions. Thank you for your work nonetheless.

Group therapy is the best therapy I’ve ever experienced.
I basically journaled the WHOLE video! 😂😂😂 thank you for this! What an INCREDIBLE INSIGHTFUL video for us! Thank you!
This is GOLD. Thank you.

This video convinced me to join an RRP therapy group. I’m so thankful for both Amanda & Patrick💛

@angelaowen1513 I hope you saw the comment above.
I hope you’ve found a therapist who is helping you. ❤
No- I haven’t. I’m trying to watch videos and figure it out myself. Thanks for the suggestion though. 🙂

❤🎉thankyou i feel like I've experienced a weight being lifted
A memory came up when you explained about our left hand/ inner child/ story ...
Like a store ! Literally
My father raged beat and shamed me once for writing a story he found in my little orange desk ..
I found her recently, my little angel ...
She is so pure and innocent!
She is so sweet and funny!!!
I'm listening to her now ❤With the care of all the Elders gone before me. I'm very Grateful ❤
About time we all had a lot more fun frankly🎉

What a great mentor you have in your healing journey!
find a drama through the algorithm is hard and not worth it
This was Excellent
Thank you ❤
Amazing video, this content.is so rich with real trauma therapy help. Thank you!
What a lovely video with your mentor! This helped me understand the power of dialoging better, too. Thank you.
Thank you for this
Good approach. Thanks
This is basically every Indian family ... how do you reconcile that?
Yeah, those groups sound like they are great... for some people.
Not for neurodivergent people, or Indian families, or Black or Latino or Asian or... you get my point. 🤷🏻

That sounds so powerful. I don't have a therapist rn, is it completely a no-no to do solo (solo couple) (is solo-couple a haha? Not sure) ?

How does one join her group?
Can i do with typing ? I'm gonna do the dialogue in new way 8:35

With the volume topped out I still can't hear what is being said
Where can I find this therapy in Atlanta?
