Episode 73: Johanna Padilla of Clinically Johanna — Entity Removal & The Missing Pieces of Healing
Sometimes, even with therapy and traditional approaches to healing, people continue to struggle. Could there be another piece of the puzzle we haven't considered?
In this episode of Creative Healing, we speak with Johanna Padilla, LMFT, energy and divination practitioner, and intuitive educator, about entity removal and its place within the broader conversation about psychological and spiritual healing. Drawing on her clinical training and personal experience, Johanna shares her perspective on what it means to feel connected to an entity, how entity removal is approached, and how to navigate the complex intersection of mental health and spirituality.
Together, we explore how to discern different experiences, why integrating psychological and spiritual perspectives matters, and whether this often-overlooked area of healing may offer a new lens for people who continue to search for answers.

Episode Seventy Two - Creative Healing: What If Rehab Was a Road Trip? With Cassidy Cousens
What if recovery looked less like a program and more like a personalized journey?
In this episode of Creative Healing, we talk with Cassidy Cousens, founder of Arago Integrative Recovery (AIR), about rethinking what treatment and recovery can look like when we step outside the traditional model.
After more than 25 years in behavioral health—and two decades owning and operating treatment programs—Cassidy began asking a different question: What happens when we build the healing environment around the person, rather than asking the person to fit into the program?
His answer is Arago Integrative Recovery: a one-on-one, nature-integrated approach that brings clinical work into open landscapes, movement, travel, and real-world experiences. AIR offers individualized options including 1:1 residential treatment and Road Trip Rehab, where travel and nature become part of the therapeutic process.
In this conversation, Cassidy shares what he has learned from decades in the treatment world—and why he believes some people may find greater clarity and connection outside traditional group settings. We explore the role of nature, movement, human connection, capacity, purpose, and meaning in creating sustainable change.
This is a conversation about recovery, but it's also about something bigger: what becomes possible when we stop assuming there is only one way to Heal.
