STOP in the Name of Love

08/22/22 • 35 min

Ever find yourself in the midst of an argument or heated exchange with a loved one and wondering — how did we even get here? What are we even talking about right now? Join clinicians at Behavioral Psych Studio as we discuss DBT's STOP skill, a distress tolerance skill that provides space for pausing in the heat of the moment, taking a step back, and proceeding mindfully. As The Supremes sang, "STOP in the Name of Love!"

Pride Month is Every Month

Join clinicians at Behavioral Psych Studio as we expand upon our discussion of radical acceptance, a DBT distress tolerance skill, through the lens of traumatic invalidation and supporting our TGNB (Transgender/Nonbinary) loved ones. This episode emphasizes a series of key points, including a hard truth that ruptures may occur within the relationships we value most. AND, it is possible to reach affirming, genuine repairs. Listen, reflect, and celebrate a truth we hold dear: Pride Month is Every Month.

Call Me (Maybe?)

Have you ever had thumbs on fire? A desire, so strongly, to text or to email or to post — perhaps something that might not be aligned with your long term, wise mind goals? This month's episode explores Pros and Cons, Adaptive Denial, and Alternate Rebellion through the lens of social media use. Join House on Fire as we chat through these three skills, a heaping ton of recently published social media-oriented literature, Kimmy Schmidt, and Adele Dazeem.
