If you've ever sent your child to time out and left them there longer than you planned…you're not alone. Been there, done that. But what are the effects of sending our kids to their rooms when they are at the height of their emotions? Brooke Vincent, Licensed Professional Counselor, helps us understand WHY we choose Time-Out (we all have the best intentions), WHAT happens for both the parent and child when we take a time-out, and HOW we can try something different—a better way.In short,  a time-out is a “behavior management tool” (quick fix). It separates the child from their primary caregiver in their most intense emotional moment, which fractures the attachment bond. While in time-out, a child's emotional distress increases because of the separation, so they cannot “think about it” or “learn from it” at that moment. Brooke suggests using a method that is not a punishment or threat, but a way to help kids regulate their emotions with their caregiver still in sight thereby allowing the secure attachment to stay intact. She recommends parents not use the language “time-in” with kids, but instead use that language internally to remind themselves to remain WITH their child during that emotionally intense time, help them calm their body and identify their emotions so you both can move through to the part where you talk about the behavior they chose to express that caused the problem. Time-outs, while we believe “work”, are quick short-term punishments that have long-term negative consequences. Time-ins are more effective in helping a child calm down and regulate their emotions and contribute positively to the long game of them being able to regulate their emotions and make better choices on their own, going forward. For more information on Time-In vs. Time-Out, check out the book Peaceful Parenting.  You can also visit Eli Harwood at attachmentnerd.com to access more information on how to raise secure, confident, thriving kids without sacrificing your sanity!Brooke also recommends the following parenting books which speak to fostering healthy attachment in kids.

Welcome back to our Mental Health Awareness Series! As many of you know, the month of May has been highlighted as Mental Health Awareness Month so we not only wanted to celebrate but also have some real conversations with some of the experts in the field who are on the front lines serving countless individuals that are struggling in the midst of the mental health disaster we find ourselves in. Let's face it, due to the impact the last 3-4 years have had on everybody, it's evident that people are exhausted, emotionally shot, and hurting. In fact, rates of anxiety, depression, and addiction are soaring to heights we've never seen before. However, even in the midst and severity of that, one of the most sobering things we've seen in the mental health space that not too many are acknowledging or talking about is the heartbreaking spike we are seeing in suicide especially among our kids as it has jumped to the 2nd leading cause of death for our teens. That is absolutely gut wrenching, and I believe it's time we start talking about and addressing this issue.  That being said, in today's episode we are going to have a real conversation about suicide with one of the leading experts in trauma and crisis work who has been an integral pioneering leader for us here at the American Association of Christian Counselors, Jennifer Ellers! Jennifer is a Professional Counselor, Life Coach, Crisis Response Trainer, author, and renowned speaker! She speaks extensively and provides training, counseling, and coaching in the field of grief, crisis, and trauma work and she is especially known for her work in and passion for developing faith-based suicide prevention training programs! In and throughout this episode, Jennifer not only shares her story about what really propelled her into the profession and field, but she also takes us on a journey of how we can better recognize, respond to, and refer individuals who are struggling with suicidal ideation in order to receive the best and most effective care and counsel possible! Our prayer is that after today's conversation you would be educated, equipped, and encouraged to join us in the midst of this fight as we come alongside of the broken and faint of heart. Remember, God loves to use people through which He channels his messages of help, hope, and encouragement. Be sure to check out these incredible resources below as well, and DO NOT MISS the incredible resource we are gifting you in our Hope Focused 3R Suicide Prevention Training Program found  in the bottom link! This is an in depth training led by Jennifer where she goes deeper into the ways in which we can better RECOGNIZE the problem, risk factors, and warning signs of suicide, RESPOND to someone who is suicidal, as well as REFER and get someone the help they need when necessary. We offer 2 incredible trainings – one for adults and one for youth that are typically the value of $200 – but because of the pressing need we are seeing in our country today and in honor of May being Mental Health Awareness Month, we have decided to bundle these and offer them both to you for ONLY $50! We pray that you would consider joining us in this fight!  SAFE-T Pocket Card: https://store.samhsa.gov/product/SAFE-T-Pocket-Card-Suicide-Assessment-Five-Step-Evaluation-and-Triage-for-Clinicians/sma09-4432 Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) Suicide Treatment Training: https://cams-care.com/Hope Focused “3R” Suicide Prevention Training Program (Adult & Youth Bundle): https://www.lightuniversity.com/cart/?add-to-cart=211967

I learned so many things during the interviews for season one. Almost every parent to date that I've interviewed has told me they didn't know what to do and they didn't know who to call when their child needed mental health treatment. I'm excited to bring more resources to parents in season two.In this episode, Danna Dahl, Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, shares invaluable information about how to find help, what kind of help your child might need and how to know you're getting qualified help. Here are some helpful websites if you need to find a qualified therapist/counselor:Psychology Today (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists)-- the Therapist Locator through the American Association of Marriage and Family Therapy (https://www.therapistlocator.net//), or through the American Association for Christian Counselors (https://connect.aacc.net/?search_type=distance). Danna also references Apria Healthcare but then realized later she said the wrong organization—it's actually Acadia Healthcare (https://www.acadiahealthcare.com/programming-treatment/behavioral-health/).

EP.185 - Body Aware with Erica Hornthal, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, Board-Certified Dance and Movement Therapist, Author  Feel Good From Within with Yvette Le Blowitz - #SPAITGIRL Podcast Erica Hornthal, know as "The Therapist Who Moves You" is a board-certified dance/movement therapist and licensed clinical professional counselor. She is the founder and CEO of Chicago Dance Therapy and creator of the Dance Therapy Advocates Summit. As a licensed talk therapist, Erica knows that words only get us so far.  Whereas, if we're willing to tap into its power, the body can take us the rest of the way as we process emotions and strengthen our mental health. Erica is spearheading this movement by moving you.  Dance/Movement Therapy comes in, by providing the structure and space for people to truly listen to their bodies. This practice isn't about being a perfect dancer and it's not just a way to let loose and have fun.  It's learning that movement is life, our movements influence our thoughts, which influence our behaviour, which makes us who we are. Erica Hornthal is the Author of Body Aware, a step-by-step journey how a mindful movement practice can slow down thoughts to lessen anxiety and panic and impact how and what we feel. When we talk about movement, most of us think "exercise". But the way we move our bodies, how we walk, roll, dance, stretch, stretch, connect, and take up space - is about so much more than physical fitness. Our movements impact our mental and emotional health and when we change the way we move, we can change the way we live. Body Aware helps readers to learn and identify where they physically hold their emotions, understand and interpret their body's unique language, explore bodily sensations, identify emotional blockages and upgrade harmful thought cycles to patterns that instead foster resilience, emotional regulation, and productivity. With a chapter on disability and movement diversity, Hornthal's guide begins to move dance therapy to a move inclusive, non-prescriptive space, helping each of us discover the kind of movement that works best for us. Broken into three sections: "How You Move," "How Movement is a Catalyst for Change," and "Transforming Your Life Through Movement," Body Aware is a revelatory transformational practice and an easy-to-use introduction to the mind-body power of intentional movement.
