Wise Counsel Podcasts

Margaret Moore on Organize Your Mind, Organize Your Life. Mental Help Net (www.mentalhelp.net) presents the Wise Counsel Podcast (wisecounsel.mentalhelp.net), hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D. In this podcast, Margaret Moore talks about the book, Organize Your Mind, Organize Your Life that she co-authored with Harvard psychiatrist Paul Hammerness. Coach Meg said that one of the simplest distinctions that she borrows from her colleague who is the director of our Institute of Coaching is that coaches follow the trail of dreams and therapists follow the trail of tears. Coaches are not in the business of healing. They are not there to fix problems, remedy pathology or really heal from a deep place. Coaches are all about where do I want to go that seems kind of challenging.

George Lough, PhD on Somatic Experiencing. Mental Help Net (www.mentalhelp.net) presents the Wise Counsel Podcast (wisecounsel.mentalhelp.net), hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D. Clinical psychologist Dr. George Lough talks about an approach to trauma known as Somatic Experiencing. Dr. Lough says that Somatic Experiencing is not therapy, as it is not really talk oriented. He explains that you do talk, but it is not story oriented, where you are telling the linear narrative of what happened to you in a particular experience and because you back off as soon as there are signs of emotional arousal, and to bring the client back into their body, back into their breath, and to let their nervous system calm down. There is a release of tension and the psychologist lets them have that experience.

Marilyn Wedge, Ph.D. on Strategic Child-Focused Family Therapy. Mental Help Net (www.mentalhelp.net) presents the Wise Counsel Podcast (wisecounsel.mentalhelp.net), hosted by David Van Nuys, Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist and author Dr. Marilyn Wedge is the originator of strategic child-focused family therapy, following in the family systems therapy tradition of Jay Haley. She strongly opposes the over-diagnosis of children with psychiatric disorders and the use of medication to treat childhood behavioral, emotional and social problems. A better approach, she believes, is the application of strategic family therapy which conceptualizes the childs problem in relationship to other problems occuring within the family. A frequent pattern is that a child will manifest a problem as a way to help draw parents attention away from their own problems. The therapist can then take on the role of helper within the system, relieving the child of that duty. As parental problems resolve or are isolated from the child, ch
