Body, Mind, Soul in Therapy, A Catholic Guide to Parts Work (feat Dr. Tim White)
Description
Many Catholics struggle with therapy because it can feel abstract, secular, or even at odds with the faith. In this episode, Catholic therapist Adam Cross is joined by Dr. Tim White to explore how “parts work,” nervous system regulation, and Catholic spirituality can come together for real healing. Drawing from Catholic tradition and clinical insight, they share practical ways to notice your body, pray with your emotions, and invite Christ into the places that feel most fractured.
Topics covered:
Why Catholics sometimes resist therapy and how to integrate faith with psychology
Body, mind, and soul, how what affects one touches the others
“Parts work” explained in plain language, protectors, exiles, firefighters, and the Self
Prayer, breath, and the nervous system, calming stress through faith and science
Internal discipleship, what self leadership means in a Catholic lens
Addiction, shame, and wounded parts, how to partner with them for redemption
Why this inner work changes relationships, confidence, and daily discipleship
Tune in for a hopeful conversation on faith, psychology, and the path from stress and fear toward peace, healing, and deeper communion with God.
