The Child Psych Podcast

Today's episode is with Dr Jo-Ann Finkelstein, author of the hot new release "Sexism and Sensibility. Dr. Finkelstein's work focuses on understanding and dismantling sexism for parents trying to raise confident and powerful girls in a culture that often demeans them.The world is full of mixed messages for girls: Stand up for yourself but do it softly. Be independent but not single. Love your body, just make sure it’s waxed, bleached, and thin. And then there are the more overt hostilities: being talked over, paid less, touched without permission, and having politicians debate their right to bodily autonomy. Many parents find it simpler to affirm girls’ strength than to address these distressing experiences directly. But with girls’ skyrocketing rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide, parenting them in this culture presents an urgent challenge: How do we teach girls to recognize and cope with these realities without crushing their optimism and belief that they can incite change?Jo-Ann Finkelstein, PhD, is a clinical psychologist who was educated at Harvard University and Northwestern University and now maintains a private clinical practice. Her writing has appeared in The Washington Post, Ms., Your Teen, among other publications.

In this touching podcast Christina Rasmussen, author and grief specialist, beautfully reframes how adversity in our childhood creates a form of "grief" that we carry into our parenting experiences.

Christina has a unique way of looking at parental triggers and how to work with them from a place of self-compassion.Christina Rasmussen is an acclaimed grief educator and bestselling author of Second Firsts (2013), Where Did You Go? (2018), and Invisible Loss (2024).

This is a recording from our 2024 summit. The tween and teen years are rife with intense social challenges in school, friendships, sports, and other activities where instances of teasing, bullying, social exclusion, and marginalization are unfortunately all too common. Social media has only made this behaviour easier and more insidious. But when kids aged 9 and up can be coached by a parent to respond effectively, manage their emotions in social situations, and recognize their own self-worth, they can reclaim a sense of their own power and develop skills like resilience, social and emotional intelligence, and compassion for life. Join Kim as he gives you strategies to give tweens and teens the tools to address the problem themselves and develop mastery over the situation—rather than having parents step in and try to "fix" things. He gives vital proactive strategies to help build strong family relationships, trust, and connection so kids can be better prepared for the inevitable social challenges life brings.To find out more about Kim Payne's amazing work, click hereInterested in our Professional Membership?ICP is thrilled to offer its new professional membership.

Play is to the child what talk is to the adult. Play therapy is a medium for expressing feelings, exploring relationships, describing experiences, disclosing wishes, and nurturing self-fulfillment. Children express themselves and their needs, relive their past, and connect with others through play. The use of toys enables children to transfer anxieties, fears, fantasies, and guilt to objects rather than people. In the process, children are safe from their own feelings and reactions because play enables children to distance themselves from traumatic events and experiences. In this podcast Tammy Schamuhn interviews Lisa Dion, Clinician, Registered Play Therapist, Co-Founder of Synergetic Play Therapy. We take a deep dive into what play therapy looks like, how it creates long-lasting changes in children, and where you can get appropriate training should you want to explore this medium in your clinical work.Want to find out more?ICP is thrilled to offer its new professional membership.

Today's podcast is a recording from our 2023 Children's Mental Health and Parenting Summit. In this interview, Dr Doucleff, author of " Hunt, Gather, Parent," talks about her experience of setting off with her three-year-old daughter in tow to learn and practice parenting strategies from families in three of the world’s most traditional communities: Maya families, Inuit families, and Hadzabe families. She finds a very different parenting culture within these communities. Parents talk less, children are more independent, and the parent-child relationship is built on cooperation instead of control. These families are also family-centered instead of child-centered. In this interview, Doucleff explores the differences and how we can apply them to modern-day parenting. If you want to find out more about about Dr. Doucleff’s work: https://michaeleendoucleff.com/about-michaeleen-doucleff/ Want to hear more from our amazing summit?
