Bridging the Spiritual and Clinical World: Insights from a Mental Health Expert Jessica

In this episode of the Spirit Reach podcast, host Leilani engages in an enlightening conversation with Jessica, a licensed clinical social worker, and director for Renewed Hope Health and Wellness Center. In their deep-dive discussion, they explore the concept of being highly sensitive, the connection with trauma, and its position on a spectrum, with Leilani leading towards the higher end with her experiences as a medium. They also delve into the holistic healing approach Jessica favours in therapy, using interventions like EMDR and Polyvagal strategies. Jessica expresses her understanding and acceptance of mediumship as part of the healing process, particularly in grief work. Both agree on the transformative power of these alternative approaches, mediumship, and self-realization in the healing process.Contact Jessica: https://www.renewedhopehealthwellnesscenter.com Contact or Follow Leilani:  https://www.instagram.com/manamedium/ https://www.manamedium.com00:50 Guest Introduction: Jessica's Journey01:41 Jessica's Academic and Professional Path05:10 Jessica's Passion for Horses and Equestrian Lifestyle10:16 Jessica's Connection with a Special Horse14:21 Balancing Career, Family, and Personal Interests16:10 Exploring the Concept of Highly Sensitive People19:14 Leilani's Personal Experience as a Highly Sensitive Person27:00 Understanding and Accepting High Sensitivity29:46 Understanding Energy Sensitivity30:59 The Journey of Therapy and Self-Discovery32:14 Holistic Healing and Therapy Techniques36:56 The Power of EMDR Therapy39:06 The Role of Yoga and Polyvagal Strategies in Healing40:26 The Impact of Practicing Healing Strategies43:03 The Intersection of Spirituality and Healing44:12 Reflecting on Past Psychic Experiences46:02 The Role of Mediumship in Healing54:07 Understanding Death and Transformation56:45 The Goal of Teaching Others to Connect with Loved Ones57:19 Closing Remarks and Contact InformationConnect with Leilani: Instagram: @manamedium Website: www.manamedium.com Subscribe: http://eepurl.com/hVfJtD
