Dr. Jaelline Jaffe is one of the most experienced therapists working with people with misophonia, over on the west coast. Jaelline shares her journey from teaching to becoming a therapist specializing in misophonia. We talk about a ton of things, the importance of family support and school accommodations and we get into her own protocol for approaching misophonia that incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. We spend a lot of time highlighting the role of adverse childhood experiences and epigenetics in understanding misophonia, emphasizing the need for mental health professionals to be aware of these factors in treatment. We also talk about the Misophonia Association annual convention, for which she is a co-founder and board member. It’s happening again this October 16th weekend in Phoenix and we talk about what it’s all about and how you can learn more. See the link below. Also I wanna mention her new book for clinicians called “These Sounds are Driving Me Crazy!” Training for Mental Health Professionals in Treating Sound Sensitivity Disorders. It just came out and is available at sensitivetosound.com/training. Link again below.
