“Beyond the Veil” Episode 21: “Embrace Your Inner Slytherin”

by Madison Ford · August 26, 2019

Most Potter fans will find new concepts easier to understand if you can use a Harry Potter metaphor to explain them.

→ The comfort of visiting an office decked out in Potter decor

→ Taking Professor Sprout’s advice: how to defeat the Devil’s Snare of panic attacks

→ Hermione and perfectionism

→ The benefits of EMDR for Harry

→ Horcruxes and negative core beliefs: our darkest thoughts about the self and others

→ The three most useful magical items for a therapist

→ Embracing your inner Slytherin
