In this episode I interview Dr. Mark Mayfield on how EMDR therapy can benefit those who struggle with PTSD, panic attacks, anxiety, and other mental health issues. We discuss what EDMR is, how to find a specialist, what to know before you start, and more. We also discuss how to help teens who may be suicidal, how to develop stress resilience in your child, how to protect your own mental health as a parent, what NOT to say to teens who are struggling, how to handle substance abuse in children, and so much more! For more information on EMDR and to find a specialist in your area visit: https://www.emdria.org Dr. Mayfield has extensive experience within the realm of substance abuse (primarily with the adolescent population), doing 10-15 groups a week early in his career. He has worked with gang members in the inner-city of Denver, developed adolescent and family therapy programs working with at-risk youth, provided in-home family therapy and multi-systemic family therapy, and has developed equine facilitated psychotherapy groups for child and adolescent survivors of mental and/or emotional struggles. Dr. Mayfield's doctoral research focused the effects of equine facilitated psychotherapy on veteran survivors with partial or full PTSD. www.drmayfield.comwww.mayfieldcounseling.comwww.facebook.com/TheDrMayfield/Instagram: drmark24Twitter: @drmarkmayfield Special offers from our sponsors:Joovv: For more info on Joovv and to get your special offer go to: www.joovv.com/drleafBiOptimizer's Brain Boost Stack Special (Includes the Primergen-M and Primergen-V): Get an additional 20% off from the normal package price with coupon code DRLEAF20: www.bioptimizers.com/leafbrainVeestro: Get free shipping + try the 6 most popular Veestro meals for $49 at: tryveestro.com/drleafComrad Socks:Get 20% off your order at www.comradsocks.com/drleaf with code DRLEAFFour Sigmatic: Get 15% off at foursigmatic.com/DRLEAF or use coupon code DRLEAF at checkout Instagram: @drcarolineleafFacebook: Dr. Caroline LeafTwitter: @drcarolineleaf Visit my website at drleaf.com for more resources, tips, and tools to help you improve and heal your mental health!
