The Yatra Centre with mike Miller
Arriving Monday 2nd June @ 6:00pm (AWST)
In this episode, Paris sits down with Mike Miller, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, EMDR therapist, and founder of the Yatra Centre in Krabi, Thailand, to talk about what true trauma recovery can look like when you get the right support.
After decades of international experience in addiction and mental health treatment, Mike created Yatra to offer something different: a peaceful, body-based healing space that integrates evidence-backed therapies like EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), CBT, and somatic work, all within the calm surrounds of southern Thailand.
Mike shares what led him to develop Yatra’s unique "bottom-up" approach, why traditional top-down talk therapy often isn’t enough for deep trauma, and how clients at Yatra are supported not just psychologically, but emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
We talk about:
Mike’s personal journey and what inspired him to build Yatra
Why trauma is stored in the body and what that means for healing
The difference between talk therapy and somatic-based trauma work
A behind-the-scenes look at a typical week for clients at Yatra
Therapies explained: EMDR, IFS, CBT, and how they work together
The power of environment in trauma recovery
Support available for families of people in treatment
How to access Yatra using your superannuation
Payment plan options for those who need financial support
How to apply or reach out if you’re curious about the program
If you’ve been searching for a way to truly heal beyond just “coping,” this conversation might just open a door you didn’t know was there.
