From Surviving to Thriving: Audio Course Preview of the Most Impactful Skills for Parents
from Cope Well - Behavior Therapy Skills to support Mental Health and Well-being · host Dr. Ashley DeLuccia
Are you exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondering if anything will actually work?In this episode, I cover the first four foundational concepts from my Mindful Behavior Therapy Curriculum. I used these concepts and adapted them for you - into an audio course, designed specifically for parents raising kids with behavioral and mental health challenges. These aren’t generic parenting tips. These are behavior therapy skills that address what’s actually happening - in your child’s nervous system AND yours.In this episode:Dialectics — Learn why “AND” is more powerful than “BUT,” and how holding two contradictory truths at the same time can stop the guilt spiral that’s quietly burning you out.Mindfulness — Not meditation. Practical, in-the-moment awareness you can use when a plate just hit the kitchen floor. Learn how to create a gap between feeling and reaction - and why that gap changes everything.Three States of Mind — Emotion Mind, Reasonable Mind, and Wise Mind. Understand why you make decisions you regret in hard moments, and how to access the balanced state that actually works when everything’s falling apart.Validation — Your emotions are always valid. What you do with them is where responsibility comes in. Learn how validating your own feelings - instead of fighting them - keeps you out of the shame spiral and helps emotions move through faster.Want the full course?This episode is just the beginning.
