Exploring the emerging field of grief therapy with Dr. Tom Nehmy, a clinical psychologist specializing in Induced After Death Communication (IADC). We dive into how IADC uses EMDR techniques to help clients process sadness and facilitate after death communications, offering new pathways for healing. Tom shares his personal journey, the clinical research supporting IADC, and what differentiates genuine after death communications from imagination. We also touch on the role of intuition in therapy, the impact of spiritual experiences on grief recovery, and the growing need for spiritually-informed clinical practices. Head to the podcast page for episode notes, Dr. Nehmy’s resources, and further reading on IADC.

This week’s conversation with filmmaker Stephen Berkley left me in awe. His documentary Life with Ghosts reveals how his mother’s crippling grief transformed when she began communicating with spirits. We explore automatic writing, induced after-death communication therapy (IADC), and why therapists MUST listen to clients’ spiritual experiences. As a psychologist and medium, I’m passionate about bridging science and spirituality—especially for those drowning in loss. If you’ve ever felt a loved one’s presence or questioned the afterlife, this episode is your validation. Plus: I’m launching a course for clinicians on spiritually informed therapy! Join me as we tear down the walls between grief and grace.

In this episode, I sit down with Dina Gachman to explore her experience of profound loss after the deaths of her mother and sister. We discuss how grief reshaped her life and inspired her memoir, "So Sorry for Your Loss." Dina shares the realities of grieving two very different losses—one anticipated, one sudden—and how rituals, family connections, spirituality, and even food played a role in her healing journey. We also talk about cultural differences around death, the comfort of shared memories, and ways to support others through mourning. Join us as we navigate the challenges of grief, the questions it raises, and the importance of community and self-compassion. Visit our podcast page for resources, Dina’s work, and more on integrating loss into everyday life.
