Adaptable | Behavior Explained

Kelly O’Horo

I’m Kelly O’Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I’m a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we’re all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the ”life stuff” and ”emotional vocabulary” that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I’ve learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing! I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There’s a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.

    Perimenopause: When Your Body Changes Before Anyone Warns You

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! This episode explores perimenopause, a neurological and emotional transition that affects the brain, nervous system, and relationships long before most people are warned. Often showing up as anxiety, brain fog, emotional reactivity, sleep disruption, or feeling “not like yourself,” these changes are frequently misunderstood or dismissed as stress. We unpack why they happen, how hormones affect the brain, and how understanding your body can replace fear and shame with clarity and compassion.   I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer.

    Adaptations

    Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! In this episode, we explore Adaptation, why we act the way we act and how our behaviors are shaped by our experiences, environments, and nervous systems.
