On this week’s episode of Enneagram IRL, we meet with Amanda Steed. Amanda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) serving Texas, Colorado, and Washington through her private practice - Unfolding Collective - Therapy & Consulting. With a mission to facilitate healing and wholeness, Amanda believes in the power of establishing trusting relationships as the cornerstone of therapy. Her therapeutic approach is rooted in trauma-informed care and attachment-focused techniques. Amanda has completed Level One IFS training, is EMDR-certified and an EMDR consultant in training. She trusts these evidence-based modalities to guide her clients through core wound healing, creating new pathways in the brain, and empowering them to regain a fulfilling life. She specializes in working with spiritual trauma, anxiety disorders, ADHD, and codependency. While Amanda takes her work very seriously, she does not take herself seriously and enjoys being silly as often as possible.  Sign up for IFS Demo Group for Therapists Sign up for EMDR+IFS Consultation Groups 🔗 Connect with Amanda! 💻 https://www.amandasteed.com/ 📷 Instagram: @amandasteedlcsw 🔗 Connect with Steph! 💻 https://ninetypes.co/ 📷 Instagram: @ninetypesco 🎥 Youtube: @stephbarronhall Here are the key takeaways: A dive into Amanda’s backgroundAmanda’s strengths as a Type Eight therapistWhat is Internal Family Systems Therapy?Discussing the “inner critic” and “inner child” parts of ourselvesHealing vulnerable parts “We all have the ability to hold self-energy”How can IFS help with trauma or ADHD?Resources for Internal Family Systems TherapyHow to connect with Amanda Resources mentioned in this episode: IFS InstituteTranscending Trauma by Frank G.
