Where Science Meets Soul – An Intro to Somatic Therapy & Energy Healing

Welcome to the first episode of the new season of Dear Therapist — a podcast where psychology, somatic healing, and energy work come together to support deep, lasting transformation.

I’m Jasmin Schott Carvalheiro, a clinical psychologist, certified Somatic Experiencing trauma therapist, coach, and shamanic energy healer. After a long pause, I’m bringing this podcast back to life — and in this opening episode, I want to reintroduce myself and my work, so you can get a sense of who I am and how I support people on their healing journey.

In future episodes, we’ll dive deeper into specific topics. But this first conversation sets the foundation: why I bring together science and soul, how somatic therapy changed everything for me and my clients, and what I believe healing truly requires — especially in these intense and transformational times.

We’ll explore:

• Why somatic trauma therapy is so effective

• Why releasing trauma too fast, too strongly, or alone can recreate the conditions of the original wound

• How ancestral, collective, and energetic imprints can live in our system

• Why we need to reconnect with the body to truly heal

And at the end, we’ll do a short body scan practice together — something you can return to anytime you need grounding and reconnection.

This space is for anyone seeking clarity, truth, and depth — whether you're a therapist, coach, healer, client, or simply interested in holistic healing methods.

Thank you for being here. The new season starts now.
