Multiplicity: The Parts of Us and Therapeutic Approaches
Manage episode 342546562 series 2924585
Sharon Stern is a clinical psychologist who specialises in trauma work. Sharon talks to us about multiplicity, i.e. the different parts of ourselves. She explains how we often reduce our different selves to one self. She references literature and figure of speech to explain this idea further.
We talk about how this translates into the therapy space. We touched on:
- Philosophically in Greek mythology
- Freud's life
- Balancing between the parts of our ourselves
- Ownership of our parts
- How our parts ensure our survival
- Compartmentalizing & Dissociation
- The Vagus Nerve
- Experiences in Early Childhood and how that can shape our parts
We finally arrive to Love & Compassion as an antidote, and how therapy helps us learn to tool to integrate of the different parts of ourselves.
