The Spiritually Curious Therapist
The Spiritually Curious Therapist is a podcast exploring the intersection of nervous system science, mental health, spirituality, and healing.
Hosted by Jodi Silverman, LCSW, this show is for therapists, healers, and curious humans who sense that true healing happens below the level of insight alone. Through thoughtful conversations and solo reflections, we explore trauma, chronic pain and illness, altered states, regulation, meaning-making, and what it really takes to help the nervous system feel safe enough to change.
This is a space for grounded mysticism, where evidence-based practice meets soul-level wisdom, and where healing is approached with curiosity, compassion, and respect for the body’s innate intelligence.
Whether you’re a clinician expanding beyond talk therapy or someone on your own healing path, this podcast invites you to listen differently — to symptoms, to stories, and to what’s asking to be integrated.

Exploring Healing through Somatics and Sound: An Insightful Conversation with Carol Ann Brayley, the SSP Yoda
In this episode of the Spiritually Curious Therapist podcast, I interview Carol Ann Brayley, MSW, RSW, SEP, an internationally recognized expert in delivering the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) and Rest and Restore Protocol (RRP). Carol Ann discusses her extensive background in trauma work, the transformative power of somatically-oriented therapies, and her journey with SSP and RRP.
We explore the integration of these protocols into therapeutic practice, the role of intuition, and the profound shifts that can occur through deep listening and physiological regulation. We also touch on Carol Ann's unique experiences using these approaches with pets, highlighting the universal applicability and effectiveness of SSP and RRP across different beings.
