Teen Mental Health with Dr. Paula Pilcher and Yshai Boussi, LPC
from Internal Chatter · host Melissa Beatty
It’s a teen (and tween) double-header today with Dr. Paula Pilcher, Naturopathic Physician at 11-22 Integrative Medicine and Founder of Empowerteen, and Yshai Boussi, author of Staying Connected with your Teen of Portland Family Counseling joining us. We get into some of the biological drivers of teen behavior, preventive health activities to help tween and teen adolescents to connect with peers and parents, and what teens really need to remain emotionally and physically regulated. Spoiler alert… their biology really is different from that of kids and adults. While discussing Dr. Paula’s Empowerteen program and Yshai Boussi’s new book, we venture into the poly-vagal theory, coping mechanisms, emotional freedom tapping techniques, values identification, relationship boundaries, empathy development, common nutritional deficiencies, and the melatonin delays that keep teens sleeping long into the morning. Welcome Dr. Paula and Yshai!
