Today I welcome Dr. Audrey Davidheiser back to the podcast. Her latest book, Grieving Wholeheartedly: Bringing Healing for Every Part of Your Soul, is an IFS guide to loss that views grief as a collection of parts, each carrying something specific, each needing to be met.
Audrey is a licensed psychologist, certified IFS therapist, and founder of the Los Angeles Dream Center, where she specializes in trauma and religious trauma. She's also someone who lost her father suddenly seven years ago and rebuilt her practice and her inner life from the ground up.
Takeaways
Grief doesn't disappear. Avoided, it piles up.
You can negotiate with parts about how much grief feels manageable
Every grief is different, and every system responds differently to the same loss
Legacy burdens shape how we grieve
Faith can support grief or be used to bypass it
Parts that yearn for a person who's gone can be met by Self
Avoiding grief work is felt as another abandonment for our parts
