EP 246 Strength in Vulnerability: Starts with Naming Your Emotions with Dr J.J. Kelly Part 2/3

***NOTE: This episode contains explicit language allowing my guest to present her approach authentically.

Welcome back to Therapeutic Thursdays! In this EXPLICIT and Impactful episode (Part 2/3), Dr. JJ Kelly introduces that there is strength found in vulnerability, emphasizing the power of naming emotions.

Dr. JJ shares valuable insights on apologizing, shedding shame, and embracing pain as a teacher.

If you have a tween or teen grappling with ongoing conflicts, rapid mood changes, or struggles with relaxation, this episode is a must-listen. Dr. JJ addresses common concerns, such as difficulty recognizing choices, impulsive decisions, and self-medicating behaviors. She challenges the parenting approach of being too nice and highlights the importance of discussing thoughts as much as feelings with teens.

The Get Real Program, rooted in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), is a blend of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Zen Mindfulness skills. As a licensed clinical psychologist, Dr. J.J. infuses humor into the learning process, making DBT accessible and enjoyable.

The conversation explores emotional intelligence as a key component in building self-esteem, the significance of family values, and the therapeutic role of humor in mental health.

If you're navigating the complexities of parenting teenagers, if you are a college student feeling overwhelmed or numbing your emotional pain, or if you are a Corporate Executive that cannot relax and experiencing conflict in your relationship, this episode offers valuable insights.
