Ever wondered how the heck to apply IFS to working with kids? Same!
In this week's episode of the "people who know more than us" series, we're honored to welcome Carmen Jiminez-Pride (pause here for applause). Carmen brings so much to the table it's hard to know where to start. Carmen is an LCSW, Registered Play Therapist, Sand Tray expert, IFS Institute trainer, entrepreneur, podcast host, author, product creator, and all around bad ass human! (That's the short list).
We were lucky enough to pick Carmen's brain in this episode, exploring the ways she integrates IFS, play therapy, and sand tray work in her therapeutic practice with children. She breaks down the differences and similarities in working with parts of children vs adults. She demonstrates how vital creativity is in working with youth. She also tells us what she'd say to parents who want to support their children in their mental health journey.
On top of all that goodness, Carmen shares what work she's done in her own system to become the business woman and therapist she is today, how she likes to get into self energy, and we learn a little about her makeup routine...
With so much gratitude we introduce you to the absolute force that is Carmen Jiminez-Pride, and hope you're as wowed as we were!
