Ever feel like your body’s stuck in overdrive, unable to fully relax? Your nervous system is probably dysregulated! In today’s episode, I sat down with Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, a child mental health specialist who has a wealth of knowledge on this silent threat. We explore signs of nervous system dysregulation in children and adults, and the importance of tackling root causes over mere diagnoses. Dr. Roseann also shares invaluable insights on teaching executive functioning skills, the impact of the pandemic, and the power of parental self-care. Tune in to discover science-backed strategies for fostering regulation and resilience.
Today we cover:
- The importance of emphasizing your child's needs and strengths for holistic development over focusing solely on diagnoses
- How consistent self-care routines enhance your ability to co-regulate with your children
- Why nervous system dysregulation is often missed, particularly in high-functioning autism
- Research that shows anxiety has surged among mothers and children due to the pandemic lockdowns
- How teaching regulation skills can improve mental health across generations
