On this week's episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen are honored to be joined by Juliane Taylor Shore, LMFT, LPC, SEP. Jules is a therapist specializing in trauma recovery, interpersonal neurobiology, and couples work and she shares her incredible knowledge with us all today! The episode begins with Jules explaining how to use neurobiology as a basis to understand ourselves and our triggers. She shares how trauma - and our own histories - can alter the brain, how our brain systems are sometimes in conflict, the science behind why self-compassion is more successful than self-criticism, rage as a bid for connection, and so much more! Jules teaches us how to work toward creating a pause between what we feel and what we do as well as shares tangible tools to have more productive communication within our relationships. She even does a live example of an exercise she practices with Emmalee! You do not want to miss this insightful and important episode!  Pre-order Juliane's Book!
