In this episode, we explore transgenerational trauma and how Caitlin learned to do magic tricks.  Caitlin nerds out about science and the body/mind connection and how working from the "bottom-up" can be deeply balancing for the parasympathetic and sympathetic branches of the nervous system.   

Caitlin is a Doctor of Physical Therapy who has spent the greater part of the last decade forging her own unique approach to healing that bridges the gap between body and mind.

Early on in her career as a Physical Therapist, Caitlin dove deep into a study of manual therapy and the osteopathic traditions that manual therapy arose from. Through this, she began to understand how interconnected all of the parts of the body are, and she developed a deep appreciation of the innate healing wisdom within the body. In alignment with the osteopathic philosophy, Caitlin developed a belief that the body, mind, and spirit are all interconnected; and through personal experience, discovered that to be profoundly true on her own healing journey.

In her early career, Caitlin encountered many patients whose physical health issues had an emotional component. And when she discovered Internal Family Systems, a modality for supporting mental health and healing trauma, she saw the possibilities of integrating it into her practice as a P.T.

Currently in her private practice in Portland, Oregon Caitlin blends IFS with bodywork to help clients connect to their bodies, their Selves, and the healing wisdom within. Connect with Caitlin at: www.FeelingCentered.com  and www.Circles-Of-Compassion.com (the retreat).
