What happens to us when trauma fragments our energy and leaves parts of us stuck in the past?

How can tapping and Energy Psychology bring us back into wholeness?

What role does the healer’s own vibration and presence play in true transformation?

In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu welcomes back a returning guest: trauma and Energy Psychology pioneer Mary Sise, to explore trauma, dissociation, parts work, and the healer’s journey toward authentic alignment.

Mary Sise, LCSW, DCEP, is a trailblazer in Energy Psychology with more than 35 years of clinical experience. She joins Dr. Adriana to share her wisdom on working with trauma, the importance of addressing dissociation, and her unique Trauma Reintegration Process that helps clients bring fragmented parts back into the present. Together, they discuss the role of the healer’s energy, the risks of spiritual bypassing, and why true healing demands both science and soul.
