About this listen

 Jonah hosts an insightful conversation with Israeli-American Dr. Miri Bar-Halpern, a Harvard-affiliated clinical psychologist and renowned trauma expert, about her experiences growing up in Israel during times of conflict and how they shaped her career in trauma and mental health. She explains her groundbreaking work on the concept of 'traumatic invalidation' in the Jewish community after October 7th, and the importance of recognizing and addressing this community trauma on an individual level. They discuss her shift to advocacy post-October 7th, and her role with Parents for Peace, a non-profit aimed at radicalization prevention. The episode highlights the crucial need of better mental health support, both for the Jewish community and the wider population, as a means to prevent radicalization, combat hatred, and foster resilience. It provides insights on how to effectively fight hate and radicalization through a combination of education, psychological understanding, and policy change.In the episode they discuss:Dr. Miri Bar Halpern’s Israeli childhood during the Gulf War and Second Intifada Her Personal Journey with Inherited TraumaHer Groundbreaking Article on “Traumatic Invalidation” in the Jewish CommunityCombating Radicalization with Parents for PeaceOur Stories Matter PodcastAnti-Jew Hate as the Common Denominator in RadicalizationPrevention and Intervention techniques Please support the podcast and become a member (join the Kahillah) to get exclusive benefits. https://beingjewishpodcast.com/communityMentioned in the episode:Miri Bar-Halpern InstagramDr. Bar Halpern WebsiteTraumatic Invalidation Research Article (co-authored by Dr. Bar-Halpern) Jonah on “Our Stories Matter” PodcastParents for PeaceWhat is the second intifada?
