Bigger Healing Was Possible After Her Parents Died With Sarah Buino
Sunday, 25 October, 2026
If you're a therapist or a healer, is it OK to talk about going into residential treatment yourself? Is it OK to need help? My guest today says hell yes it's OK. She's not just a therapist. She's a leader in the therapist community. After she spoke out about going into residential treatment in 2020, many therapists told her they finally sought the help they needed too. In today's conversation she goes deep about her own healing. Sarah Buino is known for integrating personal healing, therapist leadership development, and systems-level thinking. Her work helps therapists and group practice leaders understand how trauma, power, culture, and business structures interact and how to grow the relational and psychological capacity needed to lead ethically in a rapidly changing mental health landscape. She's also the host of the podcast Conversations With A Wounded Healer. Here's some of what we talked about: Losing both of her parents in the same year after not having a good relationship with either Working with mediums and evolving her relationships with them after their deaths Healing from childhood sexual abuse Finding NARM The NeuroAffective Relational Model Experiencing suicidal ideation and getting into residential treatment How her marriage has supported her over the last 19 years and navigating challenges together Engaging in ongoing healing work and fighting the stigma of healers doing their own healing Show notes at https://anniezam.com/podcast/264
