EP 7: Karyn “Her Heart Beats for Therapists” Bristol

“When you watch your own tapes you’ve got to be so careful to not look for all your mistakes … how we learn is yeah, notice something you may have missed, but also make sure you catch the things you did right. ” Karyn Bristol

For this episode I finally got to sit down and talk with Karyn Bristol. Besides being one of the top EFT bloggers, she’s also an EFT supervisor and founding member of the New Jersey chapter of EFT. 

One of the things that I didn’t expect was how warm she was, even the cadence of her voice lulled me into a sense of, “Oh, yeah, this is what safety feels like.” I imagine this transfers over wonderfully with her clients. Also, look at how she answers questions. Almost every time she starts off saying something like, “That’s a great question, ” or, “I really like how you said that.” I think those are the little things which make therapy flow. In this episode we talk about:  

• Her process of continual supervision
• Her new journey into Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)
• The process of writing, struggling, and now publishing her novel The Truth is a Theory
