In this powerful episode of Going Inside, trauma therapist John Clarke sits down with award-winning educator Tim Amaral to explore how trauma-informed practices can transform education. Tim shares his journey from martial arts instructor to adult educator, revealing the development of the Self-Led Classroom model and its deep integration of IFS (Internal Family Systems) principles. Together, they discuss how safety, connection, and a sense of belonging are essential for meaningful learning. If you've ever questioned traditional education or wondered how to reach students or clients who’ve been left behind, this episode will expand your perspective—and your heart.

🌿 Key takeaways:

• The true key to academic success and how traditional education often fails the very kids who need it most
• How love, belonging, and attachment show up (or don’t) in classrooms
• Is it possible for a trauma-informed classroom to flip the script on behavior “management”?
• Why learning doesn’t happen until attachment does—and how most systems get that backwards.

In this conversation, John Clarke brings together a panel of colleagues and co-authors to dive into their new book, Opening the Inner World. Together, they explore where Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy meets the spiritual insights of Emanuel Swedenborg. The panel shares their own journeys, the transformative impact of IFS, and how Swedenborg’s teachings on the inner self and divine inflow can deepen our understanding of trauma and healing. They also discuss the nature of consciousness, the power of inner dialogue, and the role of spirit in our lives — highlighting how self-awareness and a connection to the divine can open the door to profound healing and growth.

🌿 Key takeaways:

1. Uncover how blending IFS and Swedenborg’s teachings can open new pathways to deep emotional and spiritual healing.
2. See trauma through a new lens by understanding it as part of a larger spiritual experience, not just a psychological wound.
3. Experience a fresh perspective on how your spiritual and physical selves are constantly interacting and shaping your life.
4. Recognize how the illusion of separation keeps us stuck — and how reconnecting with your true self (and helping your clients do the same) brings lasting change.

In this enlightening episode of Going Inside, trauma therapist John Clark sits down with Reiki master and certified sound healing practitioner Boshko Boskovic. Boshko shares how his personal health journey led him to energy work, and how practices like Reiki and sound healing can profoundly support trauma recovery and energetic hygiene. The conversation dives into the science and spirituality behind these healing modalities, the importance of tuning into your own energy field, and practical ways therapists and sensitive individuals can care for their energy in a noisy, high-stress world.

3 key takeaways:

1. Energetic hygiene is essential – especially for therapists and healers. Practices like Reiki, sound healing, and Qi Gong help clear and restore the body’s vibrational balance.
   
   
2. Your voice is a healing tool – Boshko explains how vocalization and “sounding” can release stuck trauma and support deep emotional processing.
   
   
3. Slowing down is revolutionary – Even five minutes of stillness or connection with nature can help us reset and reconnect with our authentic selves.

In this solo episode, I reflect on my recent conversation with Mel Galbraith, the COO of IFSCA, and dive deeper into the challenges of practicing Internal Family Systems (IFS). I talk about the tricky balance therapists often face—how easy it is to show up with the best intentions, but accidentally lead from self-like parts instead of true self-energy. You’ll hear me share some personal insights on why slowing down is so essential in this work, why letting go of an agenda actually helps clients go deeper, and how even seasoned therapists can unknowingly blend with their own parts. I also unpack one of the biggest paradoxes in IFS: when we stop trying to make something happen, that's when real healing starts. This episode is perfect for therapists and coaches who are interested in their own inner healing, as well as the inner healing of their clients.

Key Takeaways:

• Why IFS is “simple but not easy” — and why that matters for therapists and clients alike
• The hidden challenge of self-like parts and how they disrupt therapy without you noticing
• How to spot when you (as a therapist) are blending with your own parts during a session
• Why interventions often backfire — and what IFS teaches us about honoring protector parts

In this episode, I’m joined again by Mel Galbraith of IFSCA, a seasoned IFS therapist and teacher, to dive into what it means to be self-led in the therapy room. We talk about the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways our therapist parts show up during sessions, and how being human—and having parts—doesn’t make us bad therapists. In fact, when we tend to those parts with care, we actually expand our ability to hold space for clients. We explore how therapist agendas can interrupt attunement, why love and curiosity are key to working with any system, and how the work we do on ourselves is just as important as what we do with clients. If you’re a practitioner trying to deepen your self-leadership and your IFS skills, this one’s for you.

🌿 Key takeaways:

1. Therapists must attend to their own parts in real time to maintain attunement with clients.
2. Effective IFS work relies equally on knowing the model and staying grounded in self-energy.
3. Clients feel safer and go deeper when therapists release the agenda and trust the process.

In this episode, I take you inside an IFS session by revisiting a past demo and offering live commentary on my thought process, choice points, and reflections. You'll see firsthand how the Six F’s of IFS (Find, Focus, Flesh Out, Feel, Fear, Befriend) unfold in real time as I guide a client through working with a protective part that resists emotional closeness. I break down the importance of tracking parts, honoring protectors, and moving at the speed of trust to ensure safety and effectiveness in the IFS process.

🌿 Key takeaways:

1. The Six F’s of IFS provide a structured yet fluid way to engage with parts, ensuring safety and connection throughout the process.
2. Protectors often surface early in sessions, signaling fears that must be acknowledged before deeper work can take place.
3. Tracking your own therapist parts—such as the urge to "make progress"—is crucial for staying self-led and honoring the client’s pace.
