How have your early experiences shaped your ability to trust others? Our early interactions play a crucial role in shaping our ability to trust or mistrust, according to Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial development. Trust vs. mistrust is developed during the first stage of our growth. A nurturing relationship with caregivers helps instill a sense of safety and belief in the world. Reflecting on your own early experiences, how do you think they have influenced your trust in others throughout your life?

You don't have to be a clinician to help a youth in care regulate their emotions. Dr. Bruce Perry states, "Patterned, repetitive rhythmic activity regulates the brainstem. This is why rhythmic activities such as walking, running, dancing, and drumming can be so therapeutic for people who are dysregulated." These activities can be profoundly healing for individuals who have experienced trauma, helping to regulate the brain and body and providing a sense of calm and stability. Let's harness the power of rhythm to support and heal. #YouthCare #TraumaInformed #HealingThroughRhythm #YouthEmpowerment #FollowtheLove #YouthVoice

Paul Krauss MA LPC and Laurie Belanger LCSWR speak about the foundations of what Trauma-Informed Care really means in the context of our greater society, not just mental health practice or trauma therapy. Laurie and Paul discuss the intersections of Trauma-Informed Care and change in greater society This is a different way of approaching human behavior and it really ought to help us question, reorganize or even dismantle many of our institutions of care (medical, educational...for starters) and build something better. That may sound a bit ambitious, yet it becomes pretty clear once you begin unpacking the core concepts of Polyvagal Theory. Neuroscience and Trauma therapists agree: It's something like a ‘Windows update’ for "being a human.” We are living in a very strange time in history. We actually have the knowledge that we need to create more compassionate and science backed care and education of every member of society. Yet we are falling farther and farther behind in many real spaces. Much of it comes down to systems that were not designed with emotional safety in mind as being important for learning or healing  physical health issues. Fear of change keeps broken systems in place. This means that trauma-informed providers and educators are out here in society trying to share and equip a community working from within systems that were not designed to work that way.  Rather than become discouraged, Laurie Belanger LCSWR is talking about it. As citizens, the steps we can all take from within the outdated systems we are working within. We are talking about the possibilities of someday re-inventing the systems that no longer serve us. Laurie Belanger LCSWR is a licensed Clinical Social Worker & Trauma Psychotherapist in New York State. With a bachelors in Psychology from Moravian University and a Masters in Social Work from The University at Buffalo Graduate School of Social work, Laurie continues to pursue a lifetime of advanced learning attending conferences and training herself on the advances continuing to be made in the field of trauma, social work and psychology.

This one is aimed towards my fellow clinicians. We carry a lot on our shoulders as part of our work as helpers. We know how to direct others in their healing and care but we aren't as good about it for ourselves as we should be. The American Psychological Association has this "Self-Care Resource Center" to serve as a reminder and guide for ways to care for our own well-being so we can continue to serve others and function as humans. https://lnkd.in/eMUCQv-c #mentalhealth #mentalhealthresource #freeresource #selfcareresource #americanpsychologicalassociation #careforyourself #checkinwithyourself #selfcare

In our approach to therapy, we understand that highly rigid family dynamics can be a significant stumbling block to progress. We believe in adapting our methods to include the entire family unit in treatment. By doing so, we empower families to recognize that their own transformative journey will not only benefit the individual patient but the family's collective well-being as well. Our aim is to foster a dynamic of understanding, empathy, and communication within the family structure. Through this process, families become a source of invaluable support for the individual in treatment. We encourage families to embrace change as a shared endeavor, where the patient's progress is intertwined with their own growth and healing. 💻addictionacademy.com #addictionhelp #addictionrecovery #recovery #recoverymonth #alcoholaddiction #drugaddiction #addictionspecialist #addictionspecialists #mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #motivational #motivation #sober #sobriety #stayingsober

It’s natural for us to seek connections with others. However, to foster meaningful relationships, it’s essential to embrace vulnerability by being open about our thoughts and feelings, even when it feels daunting. As our Clinical Supervisor, Kelsey Milam, MSW, LCSW, CCTP, says, “Vulnerability drives connection.” Without this openness, our relationships remain superficial, continuing the feelings of loneliness and isolation. Vulnerability is a muscle that we can all learn how to strengthen, so how are you going to work on strengthening your vulnerability muscle today? #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #fyp #northcarolina #counseling #therapy #motivation #inspiration #quote
