EP 124 – Unlocking Trauma with Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) with Catherine Varino
To watch the video of this episode, please go to: https://youtu.be/IkHy0R5ryig
Have you ever felt that traditional talk therapy wasn't reaching the deep roots of your trauma?
What if the key to healing eating disorders and anxiety lies in the body's energy centers?
How can a modality like Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT) help us clear the "emotional fractals" that keep us stuck in the past?
In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities: Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu is joined by Catherine Varino, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience specializing in trauma and eating disorders.
Catherine shares her journey from traditional psychodynamic psychotherapy to discovering the transformative power of Energy Psychology. Together, they explore Advanced Integrative Therapy (AIT), a gentle yet profound modality that treats the origins of trauma by clearing the energetic disturbances lodged in the body’s chakras.
