Episode Description

Welcome to Get Unstuck. Move Forward with Your Life., where host, Jason Hopcus explores the pathways to personal healing and growth. In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Danica Harris, a therapist, coach, and Somatic Experiencing practitioner. Dr. Harris is the empathic voice behind @theempoweredtherapist on Instagram and co-owner of Empowered Healing Dallas. Danica shares her passion for body-based healing and guides complex trauma survivors to soften towards themselves. Through healing retreats, somatic coaching, and events for healers, both virtually and in-person in Dallas, TX, she helps individuals create a gentleness practice to reconnect with themselves. We delve into the depths of therapy and root cause healing with Dr. Harris. Dr. Harris discusses common misconceptions about cognitive therapy and how it differs from addressing root cause issues. She explains how she identifies the root cause of a client's persistent challenges or patterns of behavior in therapy. Drawing from her experience, Dr. Harris elaborates on how past experiences and trauma contribute to perpetuating cognitive patterns, and she explores how addressing these root causes facilitates deeper healing. She also shares effective therapeutic approaches and techniques for exploring and addressing root cause issues beyond cognitive therapy. Dr. Harris illustrates these concepts with real-life examples, showcasing how shifting the focus to the root cause can impact a client's progress in therapy. Through these discussions, we gain insight into the transformative power of uncovering the root cause and its impact on a client's mental health journey. Join us as we discover the power of embodied healing and finding our way back home to ourselves. Tune in to Get Unstuck Radio with Dr. Danica Harris.

Tuesdays at 9 AM PST on the VoiceAmerica Empowerment Channel

Being a human today is more exhausting than it’s ever been because perfection remains the standard for success. Shifting that narrative and the course of your life means knowing you’re not alone, your struggles don’t define you, and the first step to a better life doesn’t have to be scary. The Get Unstuck. Move Forward With Your Life radio show and the Nobody’s Perfect community leverage the change people need to harness the essence of human connection. Motivator and changemaker Jason Hopcus believes the connection to one’s self begins with the belief that we are all interconnected - and our stories, insights, and journeys deserve to be seen, valued, and heard. Jason focuses on relationship cultivation, authenticity, and creating a space for honest discussions that contribute to a bigger goal founded on ‘next level’ social responsibility. His laser-focused approach to each conversation serves as a pivotal reminder of what can happen when we prioritize ourselves and actively seek a more hopeful, purposeful life.
