Soul Sense with Mark Verkler, LMFT

Dr. Albert Bramante is a seasoned college professor with more than two decades of experience teaching psychology and human development. Before academia, he spent many years as a talent agent, gaining deep insight into human behavior, performance, and motivation. Today, he works as a performance mindset coach, blending psychological science with tools to help people build resilience, overcome limiting patterns, and step into their true identity. He joins us from New Jersey, just outside New York City.In this inspiring episode, Albert Bramante shares his journey as a Christian therapist helping people navigate anxiety, relationships, burnout, and spiritual disconnection in a fast-moving world. Albert opens up about the intersection of faith, mental health, and emotional resilience, offering a grounded and deeply practical perspective that blends clinical wisdom with Christian conviction.From the pressures families face in Dallas to the spiritual wounds many believers carry, Albert brings clarity to questions Christians often wrestle with:-What does healthy, Christ-centered emotional life look like?-How do we tell the difference between spiritual struggle and mental-health struggle?-How do we handle anger, anxiety, shame, and relational conflict in a biblical, therapeutic way?-What does real healing require — community, confession, therapy, or all three?Albert’s calm, thoughtful approach gives listeners a hopeful vision for growth: one rooted in grace, emotional honesty, self-awareness, and the transforming presence of God. This conversation is rich with practical tools for anyone seeking wholeness. A must-listen for Christians pursuing spiritual maturity, emotional health, or relational wisdom.🌐 Connect With Albert Bramantehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/albertbramante/https://linktr.ee/albertbramante?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=fb83f45a-dbaa-4e22-8c0a-7ee4061a2c3fThanks for joining us for this podcast!

Dr. Angela Deulen is a professor of psychology at California Baptist University, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Christian author, and creator of educational content on her YouTube channel. In this episode, Dr. Deulen explores the fascinating intersection of interpersonal neurobiology and Christian faith, breaking down how our brains are literally wired for connection and how that connection directly impacts our spiritual growth and sanctification. She explains the neuroscience behind key biblical concepts—from how prayer and gratitude reshape our neural pathways to why forgiveness is essential not just spiritually but for our long-term brain health. Whether you're interested in understanding why certain spiritual disciplines work, how to help others regulate their nervous systems, or the surprising neurobiological reasons why community matters so deeply to our faith, this conversation offers both scientific insight and practical wisdom for transforming how you think, pray, and live.https://www.angeladeulen.com/Thanks for joining us for this podcast!

In this episode of Soul Sense from Samaritan's Well, Mark interviews Frank Healy, a Licensed Professional Counselor and life coach with over 40 years of experience who possesses the extraordinary ability to remember every single day of his life from age six to present—nearly 60 years of daily memories. Frank shares how this rare condition led him to develop specialized techniques for healing traumatic memories and releasing negative emotions, which he's documented in over 20 books including "Heal Your Memories, Change Your Life." Through personal stories and practical insights, Frank explains his "train metaphor" (thought factory, emotion junction, action city), the power of reframing beliefs, and why forgiveness—including self-forgiveness—is essential for moving forward. He emphasizes that while we can't change the past, we have the power to change how we relate to our memories and that dwelling on regret only reinforces negative patterns. You can find Frank's books on Amazon or visit his website at HealysHealing.com for more resources on emotional healing and personal transformation.Thanks for joining us for this podcast!

Today's guest, Dr. Amanda McNeil, brings a remarkable combination of academic excellence and hard-won personal experience to the conversation about grief, loss, and healing. With a BA in Psychology from Southeastern University, an MA in Christian Counseling, and a Doctorate in Psychology and Theology from Heritage University and Seminary, Amanda has devoted over a decade to helping others navigate life's darkest seasons. She serves as an ordained Associate Pastor at City of Life Church in Orlando, Florida, where she was ordained in 2012, and is a Licensed Pastoral Counselor and Temperament Counselor with the NCCA. As a Certified SYMBIS Facilitator, she has guided hundreds of couples through premarital counseling over the past fourteen years, helping marriages thrive through healthy communication and intimacy.But Amanda's credentials only tell part of her story. As a young teenager, she experienced devastating family tragedy when her father died unexpectedly, and it was this profound loss that ignited her passion for helping others find hope amid heartbreak. Together with her husband Justin and their miracle son, Amanda has overcome the challenges of blended family dynamics, personal tragedy, grief, and infertility—experiences that give her an authentic, authoritative voice of hope. Her latest book, Overcoming the Overcast: Navigating the Storms of Grief with God, is a love letter born from these experiences, offering practical wisdom, theological depth, and the reassurance that the Son of God is always shining, even when we cannot see or feel Him through the clouds.Due to a video issue, only Mark’s audio is available in this episode.Amanda McNeil's Website:https://www.amandacmcneil.comFree First Chapter of "Overcoming the Overcast":https://www.amandacmcneil.com/freeAdditional Resources Mentioned:- Book: Overcoming the Overcast: Navigating the Storms of Grief with God- Church: City of Life Church, Orlando, FLThanks for joining us for this podcast!

What happens when life delivers not one, but two devastating blows that leave you bedridden and questioning everything you thought you knew about God's goodness? Today's guest, Darci Steiner, knows this journey intimately. An author, inspirational speaker, and nutritionist, Darci faced her first major disability in 2001 after a life-threatening fall down the stairs that left her unable to walk or care for her young children. Just as she rebuilt her life—earning her Master's degree in Holistic Nutrition while bedridden and eventually experiencing complete healing—a second injury in 2018 brought her back to square one. But rather than break her, these twin trials became the foundation for profound spiritual growth and her award-winning book, "Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in Suffering." In today's conversation, Darci shares how she learned to differentiate between treating God like a genie in a bottle versus developing genuine trust, the practical steps that built her resilience five minutes at a time, and why she believes suffering can be a treasure hunt that draws us closer to God's heart. Her story is a masterclass in turning pain outward and finding purpose beyond our circumstances.Beauty Beyond the Thorns: Discovering Gifts in SufferingAmazon.comhttps://www.amazon.com › Beauty-Beyond-Thorns-Dis...Email Darci for speaking engagements: darci@darcijsteiner.comhttps://www.darcijsteiner.comDue to a video issue, only Mark’s audio is available in this episode.Thanks for joining us for this podcast!

Once a successful corporate professional, Jonathan’s life was shaken by divorce, financial collapse, and the heartbreaking loss of his teenage son.

Through his story, Jonathan offers profound insights on the importance of self-love, building relationships on friendship and intentionality, and choosing love daily—even in the face of life’s deepest challenges.https://www.jonathonaslay.comhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDOXs_34FF93o66Z-S0py1gDue to a video issue, only Mark’s audio is available in this episode.Thanks for joining us for this podcast!

Chaya Garcia is a relationship expert from Atlanta who helps single, high-achieving women attract lasting love through a two-part approach: teaching self-love (forgiveness, acceptance, and boundaries) and identifying healthy versus unhealthy behaviors in men during dating. Her core philosophy is that "what we attract is not what we want, but who we are," emphasizing that without self-love, women are drawn to familiar but unhealthy relationship patterns that feel like chemistry but are actually trauma bonds. Through her coaching programs, she helps women break destructive dating cycles and recognize red flags like narcissism early in the dating process.Learn more at connectwithchaya.comDue to a video issue, only Mark’s audio is available in this episode.Thanks for joining us for this podcast!
