By Uncategorized No Comments

Presenter: 

Em Capito, LCSW, MBA, RYT

Em is an unconventional psychotherapist specializing in mind-body resilience, in particular through intentional discomfort, highlighted in her recent TEDx talk on Resiliency Field Trips. Em is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a certified LifePower yoga teacher, and a Dharana Method meditation teacher with a private practice in South Jordan and Park City.

Presentation Topic: The Hierarchy of Resilience – Prioritizing Intervention in the Midst of Crisis

The opportunity inherent in crisis – in our own lives and that of our clients – is that it allows for a very honest assessment of our resilience, both internally and within our relationships. Join us for a virtual training that presents a hierarchy of resilience such that we can prioritize efforts to relieve anxiety and reactivity toward meaningful responsiveness.
Following this training, participants will:
  • Understand a hierarchical model for resilience and how this can be applied to treatment planning and clinical intervention
  • Experience personal application of an assessment tool for resilience that can be deployed with clients to empower responsive action
  • Be able to identify six research-based factors for resilience, and associated interventions to reduce anxiety and reactivity with clients in the midst of crisis

TICN March Presentation: Five Pillars of Resilient Health – How and Why to Restore Neurobiology Naturally

By Uncategorized 4 Comments

Presenter: Dr. Susie Wiet, MD at Sovegna

Dr. Susie Wiet is an integrative, developmental psychiatrist who has developed her career around restoring health and resiliency, carving out her area of expertise in recovery from trauma and/or addiction. She advocates for each client to learn how they can self-empower in advancing their own recovery, by giving voice to the individual’s experience, framing the underpinning neurobiology, and helping the client establish therapeutic goals to sustain long-term recovery.

Beyond her clinical practice, Dr. Wiet is involved in community advocacy work: she founded the Trauma- Resiliency Collaborative (TRC), a multi-disciplinary interest group comprised of professionals, para- professionals and peer advocates, with the mission to educate stakeholders, clinicians, and households about the hope for recovery from the impact of trauma; she developed the Health Resiliency Stress Questionnaire (HRSQ) – vetted through the TRC – which is currently undergoing field testing in select clinical practices across the country; once the validation process is complete, Susie has pledged the tool will remain in open source; she is an invited speaker at local, national, and international conferences on the neurobiology of resilience and recovery from addiction and trauma; and, she serves on the board of the international Academy on Violence and Abuse (AVA). Her dream is to meaningfully contribute to building a resilient community at-large through education, connection, and compassionate communication at the individual and macro-level.

Presentation Overview: 

Dr. Wiet will address why understanding the basics of the neurobiology of healing are important for recovery from any trauma and any addictive process. She will provide an overview of the Five Pillars of Resilient Health©, a framework she developed in working with her own clients. Dr. Wiet will explain how and why cultivating these pillars can help minimize the need for medication while restoring health of mind, body, and soul. The presentation slides can be accessed here.

September TICN Presentation # 1: Body Talk-Finding the Root Disease By Addressing the Whole Person

By Uncategorized No Comments

Presenter: Roberto Scordari

 

Roberto Scordari is a certified BodyTalk practitioner and a member of the Global Healing Association since 2014. He is also a life coach who uses Emotional Freedom Techniques and was trained in Europe as an emotional counselor. Although he found these tools very useful in helping people improve their emotional and physical well being, he always felt something was lacking. Then, his marriage led him to the U.S where he discovered the missing piece: The BodyTalk System.

Roberto always strongly believed in and often witnessed the immense potential and capacity of the body to self-heal at all levels. In BodyTalk he found a truly holistic, integrative, consciousness-based health care system where he can combine all his expertise in order to awaken and enhance the healing abilities that reside in the body-mind complex. After certifying as a BodyTalk Practitioner, Roberto and his wife moved back to Europe where he successfully ran a practice for a few years.

Now that he and his family are living again in the U.S., he’s excited to continue helping people improve their overall wellbeing as he begins studies in clinical social work.

Presentation Topic: Body Talk

 

BodyTalk is a revolutionary form of alternative health care based on the principle that in the body there is a built-in mechanism, an innate wisdom, that constantly tends towards balance and healing at all levels. Your body is designed to self heal and is supposed to work in perfect synchronicity. In fact, when the body is operating at its optimal level, each system, cell, and atom is in constant communication with each other at all times. Through exposure to the stresses of daily life, however, these lines of communication can become compromised, leading to a decline in physical, emotional and/or mental health. BodyTalk is an astonishingly simple and effective form of therapy that releases the stressors from the body and allows its systems to be resynchronized so they can operate as nature intended.

During a BodyTalk session, the client lies on a massage bed fully clothed while the practitioner facilitates communication with the innate wisdom of the body through neuromuscular biofeedback.Through the guidance of the client’s body, the practitioner is able to locate the imbalances within the body-mind complex that are a priority. The practitioner then uses different non-invasive techniques depending on the nature of the imbalance, thus restoring the communication patterns within the body.

BodyTalk’s major assets are its simplicity, safety and efficiency. Because the BodyTalk System allows the body’s own healing abilities to effect change, clients may see long-lasting, ongoing improvements in health rather than short-term symptomatic relief.

While BodyTalk doesn’t diagnose or treat specific ailments, clinical experience has shown that once their overall systems are balanced through BodyTalk, clients have exhibited significant improvement in a variety of areas including:

Emotional disorders
Arthritis
Sport injuries
Phobias
Digestive disorders
Endocrine disorders
Chronic fatigue
Headaches
Chronic pain
Stress response
Viruses
Allergies
Back pain
Infections
