The Art of Witnessing Pain: Trust, Safety, and Growth

Welcome to another episode of The AnxietyRX Podcast. Today's special guest is Vienna Pharaon, an experienced marriage and family therapist from New York City. Vienna combines clinical expertise with personal experience in her work and her insightful book, "The Origin of You". In this episode we explore the power of psychological blind spots and the importance of trust and safety in therapy which allows people to face challenging truths at their own pace. A key focus of our discussion is the transformative power of witnessing our own pain and experiences. We also delve into the dynamics of feedback and conflict resolution in relationships, highlighting the significance of understanding, repairing, and balancing self-compassion with taking responsibility for one's actions. Join us for this enlightening discussion, offering valuable insights into therapy, self-discovery, emotional healing and personal growth.
