The Spiritually Curious Therapist
The Spiritually Curious Therapist is a podcast exploring the intersection of nervous system science, mental health, spirituality, and healing.
Hosted by Jodi Silverman, LCSW, this show is for therapists, healers, and curious humans who sense that true healing happens below the level of insight alone. Through thoughtful conversations and solo reflections, we explore trauma, chronic pain and illness, altered states, regulation, meaning-making, and what it really takes to help the nervous system feel safe enough to change.
This is a space for grounded mysticism, where evidence-based practice meets soul-level wisdom, and where healing is approached with curiosity, compassion, and respect for the body’s innate intelligence.
Whether you’re a clinician expanding beyond talk therapy or someone on your own healing path, this podcast invites you to listen differently — to symptoms, to stories, and to what’s asking to be integrated.
The Spiritually Curious Therapist
Releasing Responsibility Through Spirituality with Kara Bailey Mifflin, LPC, Certified IFS Therapist
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
As a therapist/healer are you sometimes overwhelmed by a feeling of responsibility for healing or helping others?
Join me in this episode as I talk with Kara Bailey Mifflin, LPC and Certified IFS Therapist about how spirituality has allowed her to release the responsibility of fixing others and in turn be fully present, compassionate and expansive with herself, her clients and all of their combined parts.
Kara has had a 30 year career in mental health and recently opened her own private practice in 2021 during the pandemic. Although she has been a therapist for many years, it wasn't until she entered her own recovery process through Adult Children of Alcoholics and Family Dysfunction 8 years ago, that she found spirit, a "power greater than ourselves", in healing. This spiritual journey as well as her own IFS therapy has opened opportunities for radical growth and connection with her parts, especially her inner child, which has led to expansion and joy in her own life as well as the work she does with others.
