Today, we're honored to host a truly esteemed guest, Dr. Frank Anderson. A renowned psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and authority in trauma treatment, Dr. Anderson is a guiding light in his field. His rich experience spans multiple institutions - from serving as a clinical instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School to being a Lead Trainer at the IFS Institute alongside Richard Schwartz. He also holds a long affiliation with Bessel van der Kolk’s Trauma Center, where he conducts training. Driven by his passion for teaching brain-based psychotherapy, Dr. Anderson merges cutting-edge neuroscience knowledge with the Internal Family System (IFS) model of therapy. An advisor to the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP) and the former chair and director of the Foundation for Self Leadership, Dr. Anderson's contributions to trauma healing extend far and wide. As a prolific author, he has lent his wisdom to numerous publications in the field of trauma. Most notably, he has recently published a book titled "Transcending Trauma: Healing Complex PTSD with Internal Family Systems," which has become a crucial resource for professionals and individuals navigating trauma.
