Invisible losses often trap us in survival mode, leaving us living a life that doesn’t align with who we truly are. By acknowledging and validating these unseen wounds, we unlock the potential for healing, self-compassion, and reclaiming our authentic selves. This episode takes listeners behind the proverbial therapy door, offering insight into the processes and techniques that guide therapeutic healing. In this Clinicians Series episode, Sharlee Dixon speaks with Christina Rasmussen, a renowned grief educator and bestselling author of "Second Firsts," "Where Did You Go?," and "Invisible Loss." Following the loss of her spouse to cancer in 2010, Christina developed the Life Reentry process—a compassionate approach to helping individuals navigate grief and move forward. With a master's degree in guidance and counseling from the University of Durham and currently pursuing an MFA in painting and drawing at the Academy of Art, Christina brings both personal and professional wisdom to her work. Her groundbreaking insights have been featured on ABC News, Women’s World, The Washington Post, and even the White House Blog, while also contributing to Psychology Today.
