About this episode
Therapists have trauma too. If you don't believe that, Dr. Frank Anderson has a story for you and it happens to be his own. A respected leader in the trauma therapy and Internal Family Systems space, Frank Anderson's latest book is the memoir he never planned to write. But once the words and the music started to flow, "To Be Loved," painted a picture of a young boy's pain that became his purpose. It's a reminder that vulnerability and honesty pave the way for healing and compassion for those who hurt him and also freed him on so many levels. In this episode of the HIListically Speaking Podcast, you have a front seat inside a deep conversation that serves as a reminder: healing and love are possible for all. 00:00 Intro 01:40 Vulnerability in Memoir Writing 02:10 Breaking the Us and Them Barrier 03:51 Truth and Compassion 12:35 The Healing Power of Music 20:43 Emotional Connection of Music 22:45 Forgiveness and Healing Process 36:25 Casting the Movie 47:50 Rapid Fire game with Frank Anderson 48:22 Guest Dr. Frank Anderson shares final thoughts 48:48 Host Hilary Russo close and podcast info WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE Subscribe https://www.youtube.com/hilaryrusso Grab a copy of "To Be Loved: A Story of Truth, Trauma, and Transformation" Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4cNRXi5 (Amazon) Paperback: https://amzn.to/3X4R3Ik (Amazon) Other Books by Dr. Frank Anderson "Internal Family Systems Skills Training Manual: Trauma-Informed Treatment for Anxiety, Depression, PTSD & Substance Abuse" Kindle: https://amzn.to/3Mxk4ra (Amazon) Transcending Trauma: Healing Complex PTSD with Internal Family Systems Kindle: https://amzn.to/4ecUsfd (Amazon) CONNECT WITH DR.
