reFRAMED S3E3 | Reframing Sensory Integration

Speaker:Bill Porter, MA has 20 years of experience in providing counseling, support and advocacy to at-risk children, youth, and families. Bill joined the Gladney Family in 2013 and he spends most of his time leading his team in providing “best practices” to adoptees, birth families and adoptive families. Bill has been trained through the Trust-based Relational Intervention TBRI® at Texas Christian University and has provided clinical supervision and consultation in evidenced based programming. Bill received his Bachelors of Arts in Religion from Southern Nazarene University and his Masters of Education in Counseling from North Texas University. Safety:A child has to feel safe physically and emotionally. We underestimate fear and anxiety. If you are never available for your child as a safe base, then you're not doing your job as a parent. Connection:Find ways to engage with your child even though you might be rejected. One of the most important things to remember is that it's never your child's responsibility to find ways to connect with you. It's your responsibility to find ways to connect with your child. What does your child like? What does your child want to do?When you have your safety and your connect working, then you get to do the other parenting stuff like correcting.

reFRAMED S2E8: Reframing Sensory Needs With a Sensory Diet

Emily Morehead, LPC and Bill Porter, MA talk about neurobiologic stress. Our neurobiology is more than just our brain.  Our neurons run through our body, our gut, our limbic system (emotions) and our mind.  The stress we experience affects all the areas.  It’s not just in our brain.   If left to it’s own devices, our neurobiological responses usually become either over reactive or under reactive.

And that’s were we get into trouble.  In many instances, our survival responses can be destructive to our relationships.  Our overreaction or under reaction can affect our relationships with our kids, our spouses, our parents, our coworkers and on and on.    Learn more by listening or watching today!

reFRAMED S2 E6: Reframing the Evolution of Adoption

Guest Robyn Gobbel, LCSW, RPT-S, joins reFRAMED Podcast Host, Emily Morehead, LPC, to talk about sensory and emotional regulation. Through years of working with complex trauma children, Robyn recognized that she wasn't adequately trained or prepared to know how to support the child, the environment, and their regulation. When the body is so out of control, there is no trauma processing or attachment happening. It's crucial to believe that every single thing that someone does is done in an attempt to themselves feel better.

reFRAMED S2 E5: Reframing Sensory & Emotional Regulation

Three music therapists joined reFRAMED Podcast Host, Emily Morehead, LP to share about the power of music therapy. Music accesses every part of the brain which has huge implications as music as a therapy. Our bodies are very musical and rhythmic and when your body does that, your brain releases dopamine which is key to forming new neural connections. Music is a way to connect and socialize in a non-verbal way. Having music as a healthy form of sensory input is so helpful for those on the spectrum. Watch and find out how music can be a motivator for daily tasks as well as transitions with children.

reFramed S2 E4: Reframed with Heart & Harmony

Guest Marshall Lyles joins reFRAMED Podcast Host, Emily Morehead, LPC, to talk about trauma. A lot of families ask a lot of questions about trauma and our goal is to break down this big topic into bite-size pieces. There's a phrase that our listeners probably hear a lot, "trauma-informed care", which does mean a lot but doesn't communicate a lot. Marshall defines trauma as any event that any person would go through that gets stored in the memory in a way that it then starts to interfere with their functioning. Trauma is more about how those memories are stored than it does about the actual events that happened.

reFRAMED S2 E3:  Trauma Therapies With Marshall Lyles

Guest Robyn Gobbel, LCSW, RPT-S, joins reFRAMED Podcast Host, Emily Morehead, LPC, to talk about grief and transitions in the adoption and foster world. While adoption is beautiful, sometimes there are hard places before reaching the final destination. Robyn has found throughout her practice that the littlest information or even a script is enough to help parents to know how to talk to their child about transitions and grief that are happening or going to happen. Being able to talk through the transitions is like a building block and an empowerment piece. As a therapist, Robyn shared that she is constantly working with clients to understand that they can have more than one feeling at a time.
