Dr. Miller’s email and Mr. Mueller’s email. ( not our usual set up so the quality isn’t as good but glad that we were able to connect to bring you this episode. )  Here is a link to the Virtual Tour for the Middle School

    Ms. Madison Dunn (visiting student podcaster), asks Dr. Alex Williams, a clinical Psychologist,  some great questions, and we dive into the ever interesting topic of mental health, changes in culture, how to find resources, and dispel some myths.  I couldn't get enough of his insights, and invited him back to talk more about Trauma, strategies, etc.  This is a good one!  Dr. Williams references a couple of resources that we have listed here in case you would like to look into them: Dr. Williams contact information Advice for Selecting a Psychologist Trauma Focused CBT Book for parent reference (we do not gain any profit from Amazon), and this book can be purchased from all major book sellers: The Parents' Guide to Psychological First Aid:  Helping Children and Adolescents Cope with Predictable Life Crisis

    Dr. Beutel returns to talk about how we can become more educated and practice strategies that help our children heal from trauma. In this episode the Ted Talk given by Dr. Nadine Burke Harris is referenced, and can be found at this link.  Our student pod caster was sick, so we didn't get the joy that they bring to the studio.  We hope you enjoy this episode, and if you want additional information regarding this topic, please feel free to call the school or district and ask for your child's school counselor, school social worker, principal or reach out directly to Dr. Jen Beutel at District Office.
