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.

The Intuitive Soul of Neurodivergence: A Holistic Conversation with Ayla Ault (Part 1)
We’re kicking off Season 3 with an episode that’s as insightful as it is soul-stirring. I’m joined by Ayla Ault, a licensed clinical social worker and marriage and family therapist who specializes in working with neurodivergent clients — especially late-diagnosed ADHDers and Autists.
Ayla brings a powerful blend of clinical wisdom and intuitive insight, weaving together polyvagal theory, attachment-based practices, somatics, Reiki, and intuitive readings to support healing on every level.
Together, we explore how neurodivergent folks often carry a deep intuitive sensitivity — and why learning to ground that energy is essential for discerning intuition from anxiety.
This conversation is a rich dive into the ways holistic and spiritual practices can regulate, nourish, and empower neurodivergent nervous systems — and how we, as therapists and healers, can show up more consciously and creatively for our clients.
✨ Whether you're a practitioner or just wildly curious, this episode is full of gems you won't want to miss.
