IFS and Self Led Civility and a lot of Funk with David Medeiros

On today's episode I chat with David Mederios, Level Two trained IFS therapist. David has been a program assistant for multiple level one and level two trainings. He has presented at several annual IFS conferences. He spent a year working with Dr. Richard Schwartz and co-presented their experience treating someone diagnosed with Schizophrenia at an annual IFS Conference. David collaborated on the production of Good Grief, which toured nationally.

David and I have a lot of a laughs throughout this '101' episode.

Here is a bit of an outline:

How we met and importance of Dance Parties

Drumming Lessons: asking for help and life lessons 

His book. Civility and Responsibility. Working with Families struggling in Domestic Violence

His goal in writing his book- especially in light of the 2020 election, Capital Riots, and Covid.
