17 min - Episode 33: Your Brain is Beautiful with Dr. Amy
This is the beginning of a four-part series where I model how I talk with my clients about trauma. Listen as I explain how trauma can become more routine to discuss with patients, how to begin conversations and how to normalize responses. Then, we'll dig into the story of "Claire" and how I explain to her trauma and neurobiology. When Claire understands how wonderfully protective her brain is, she begins to understand her trauma and heal.

18 min - Episode 32: Dr. Amy Reflects on 6 Months of Podcasts and Lessons Learned
6 Months and 32 episodes later, we've covered a lot! Join me as I reflect on lessons learned over the past episodes and ways guests have shared how trauma shows up in medicine. I reflect on themes we've covered as well - health equity, physician burnout, pediatric spaces, rural medicine, nursing woes, and building resilience. You'll also be touched by reflections on stories shared by survivors of early childhood trauma and how that shows up in parenting today. I point out where you can go to find gems if you're looking for a specific story or topic. Or, if you simply want the readers-digest version of the past 6 months, this is the episode for you!
32 min - Bonus: Join us at the Mini-Retreat in April
Hey friends, I wanted to create this short clip about the upcoming mini-retreat for physicians and providers who work with children and families. Some of you have heard about the curriculum that I’ve created called, Cards for Connection. They are prescriptive cards that focus on brief interventions to be used in primary care. The cards enhance relational health at every well-visit with practical tools!
During our retreat, I’ll teach you these interventions in very small groups (only 15 spots are available) and by the end of our time together on Saturday afternoon, you’re off to explore wine country with two things: Licensure to use the cards in your practice and 6 months of support from me in The Provider Lounge, a learning collaborative to build resilience with other colleagues.
I talk to physicians and providers every day who feel like they don’t have the resources, support, knowledge or tools to provide the level of care their patients need right now. I don’t want you to be a therapist. You don’t need to be a therapist. But I DO want you to have access to brief interventions that support kids and families, are trauma-informed & efficacious, bridge a gap for much-needed mental health supports PLUS support early relational and social emotional health for caregivers and children.
You don't want to miss out on this opportunity to transform your practice and build resilience for your patients!

See you soon, Dr. Amy

He's a leader, physician, and consultant with wisdom and strategy that will shape how you think of trauma-informed care at a systemic level. Listen as he breaks down what leadership was like, what got him through and how he was able to take a vacation (yay!) during the middle of the pandemic by surrounding himself with other incredible leaders.

1 hr 1 min - Episode 28: Changing how we see people changes people with Robyn Gobbel, LCSW
Join Dr. Amy & her friend, Robyn Gobbel, LCSW, as we discuss the complex field of relational neuroscience, that Robyn, so beautifully, makes accessible. Robyn talks about how children who are regulated, connected & safe do well and then breaks down how parents and professionals can co-regulate with children. She does a beautiful job of talking about the complexities of working with children with "baffling" behaviors.
Robyn is a social worker by training, but now hosts, trains, consults, writes & teaches hundreds of people in her online platform, and if you're lucky, in person. She's the host of the popular Parenting After Trauma and has a club for parents and other helpers as well as a licensing program called Being With. Robyn translates the complex science of relational neuroscience for helpers, healers, educators and parents to make it practical, useful and ultimately - life changing. She teaches powerful tools that help children's behavior and ultimately their connection to themselves and the adults in their lives.
Other topics we chatted about:
Dr. Stephen Porges
Dr. Dan Siegel
Bruce Perry's New Book!
