I want to give a special thank you to Dr. Rosie Gellman for speaking with me about pediatric suicidality, a very heavy and scary topic for parents, families, and mental health professionals. Over the last few years, professionals in mental health have experienced an alarming increase in children expressing thoughts of suicide, or threatening to harm themselves. This webinar covers the symptoms to look out for, the differences between actual suicidality and suicidal threats or intrusive thought ideation; the protocol that mental health professionals must follow when a patient is threatening or thinking about self-harm; and much more invaluable information for parents and other professionals. It is imperative to seek out a psychiatrist or therapist in the event your child has expressed thoughts of suicide. A mental health professional can work with the family to develop a safety plan and carefully work to discover the cause of why the child feeling this way. Dr. Rose Gellman, MD, is a pediatrician, child and adolescent psychiatrist, and adult psychiatrist who works locally in Louisville, CO, at her private practice called Psych for Tykes and Teens, LLC, https://lnkd.in/gCqZRk2H #childrensmentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #OCD #anxiety #suicideprevention

Do you ever wonder why a seemingly “non-significant” event happens you take it so hard? According to the AIP theory, which EMDR therapy is based on, this is because our past experiences color our present experiences. The goal of EMDR is to connect helpful and true information in our brain to our memories of not so good experiences. The result is the painful experience in our past is not forgotten, but instead placed within our story. #AIP #EMDR #therapy

EMDR + Psychedelic Integration: A Neuroplasticity Powerhouse 💡 Did you know? Psychedelics can accelerate neuroplasticity, helping the brain rewire itself and process traumatic memories more effectively. When combined with EMDR’s structured approach to memory reprocessing, it becomes a powerful tool for deep healing. With EMDR + Psychedelic Integration, bilateral stimulation helps the brain integrate sensory and emotional material, allowing clients to make sense of their psychedelic experiences. This approach is particularly valuable for individuals with complex trauma but effective for anyone attempting to resolve pathogenic memories. Are you exploring EMDR and psychedelic therapies in your practice? How are you integrating these techniques?
