Boundaries make kids feel safe, just like if you was to come into my house, right, and I don't say take off your shoes right, and then you go, you sit down and I'm like why you got your shoes on. They scare me the most because quiet kids, you know you don't know what's going on.
Childhood trauma can cast a long shadow over a person's life, shaping behaviors and development in ways that are often misunderstood. In this episode of Mental Health Monday, licensed professional counselor Michelle Renee Davis takes listeners on a journey through the intricate world of childhood trauma and its far-reaching impacts.
Michelle, with her rich background in clinical psychology and trauma, explains how early exposure to stressors can influence everything from cortisol levels during pregnancy to the normalization of harmful behaviors in children. She doesn't shy away from tough topics, discussing issues like sexual deviancy and the formation of cult-like mentalities. But it's not all doom and gloom. Michelle offers practical advice for parents and caregivers on how to mitigate the effects of trauma through effective communication and setting healthy boundaries.
She also highlights the benefits of brain scans in understanding mental health issues. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or mental health professional, this episode is packed with valuable insights that can help you support a child's emotional and psychological well-being. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of how trauma can shape young lives and what you can do to foster resilience and healing.
