Regular Guy Friday Ep. 81: The Drastic Effects of Being Undervalued

Regular Guy Friday Ep. 81: The Drastic Effects of Being Undervalued

The problem with holidays like Halloween and Valentine's Day. The problem with not recognizing value in others and not recognizing value in self. The problem with high IQ's and how they can betray you. The problem with being labelled a genius. The problem - and far deeper consequences - of family and friends not seeing you and undermining your worth. The problem with being born with gifts. The problem with spreading your gifts too thin. The problem with age and the reduction of your popularity hormones. No problem with @thekelseymeyer and @thepoojanayyar being on vaca next week and no problem with the clique's no social media on vaca plan. RGF Bonus: Another live @undergaro #catfish fail.

Originally Aired: Dec 16, 2019 June is PTSD awareness month, so we are rerunning our interview with psychotherapist Tammy Valicenti.  How have we gone this long without hearing about EMDR-Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing? The team feels indebted to Tammy Valicenti, a practicing psychotherapist and trauma recovery specialist with expertise in trauma and addiction recovery, for teaching us about this therapy that is helping heal people with incredible success rates. EMDR helps the patient process and resolve stored memories using an eight-phase approach. Practitioners initially used it to treat people with traumatic memories, but they now use it to treat a variety of disorders, including: phobias, PTSD, anxiety, chronic pain and depression. EMDR addresses the past experience of trauma, the present triggers for dysfunctional emotions and beliefs, and the positive experience needed to improve future mental and emotional functioning. About Tammy: Tammy Valicenti, LICSW is the founder of The Transformation Center located in the Berkshire hills of Massachusetts. She is a practicing psychotherapist with expertise in trauma and addiction recovery. Tammy works with clients nationally and internationally and has renowned success utilizing EMDR to treat trauma, anxiety and panic as well as to enhance performance for actors and entrepreneurs. Tammy has over twenty years of experience treating various forms of trauma and addiction, and has helped foster life-changing results for survivors of rape and sexual assault. As a result of her success, Tammy has been called on by leading addiction treatment centers in the U.S. to perform EMDR therapy for their inpatient clients.
