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 Nature of Reality: Mystical Experiences, God Consciousness & the Search for Meaning with Michael Monk
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What happens when an experience is so profound that it changes the way you understand reality itself?
In this thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with Michael Monk, spiritual teacher, healer, and founder of the Avatar Energy Mastery Institute. Michael shares a series of extraordinary experiences that began with what he describes as a direct communication from God and led him on a decades-long exploration of consciousness, healing, spirituality, and human potential.
Together, we explore mystical experiences, God consciousness, energy healing, out-of-body experiences, personal transformation, and the challenges of integrating extraordinary spiritual experiences into everyday life.
Whether you find yourself deeply resonating with Michael's perspective, questioning it, or simply feeling curious, this conversation invites us to explore one of humanity's oldest questions:
What is possible when we move beyond our ordinary understanding of ourselves and reality?
In This Episode We Explore:
- Michael's early spiritual experiences and awakening
- The role of faith and direct spiritual experience
- Different understandings of God consciousness
- Mystical and out-of-body experiences

- The relationship between spirituality and self-empowerment
