Induced After Death Communication. What Is It and Why are EMDR Therapists Getting Trained In It?

What is Induced After Death Communication (IADC)? Co-host Charity is trained in IADC and in this episode she explains: * What IADC is * What her experience was like doing IADC as a client *  How her experience with loss inspired her to become trained in it  * And How IADC is a little witchy. Until recently, IADC training was only open to EMDR Basic trained therapists. Due to that, it is mainly counselors and therapists who already practice EMDR who are trained to do it with clients. If you are interested in getting trained, check out this episode before you do! Charity also thoughtfully allowed clips of her recorded experience to be shared in this episode.

How do we maintain our integrity when we are in burnout? For neurodivergent clinicians, therapists and counselors who are autistic, have ADHD, PTSD, C-PTSD, or chronic illness, ethical unmasking becomes necessary. In Episodes 6 & 7 we speak with Fenn Priest, aka the Trauma Witch. Fenn shares her experience with burnout, being late diagnosed autistic, and using somatic journaling to create a community that nurtures the nervous systems of its members.
