Manage episode 346002549 series 2922626
Ep #129 Over the course of her 20 year career, Keri Cooper observed how children and teens continued to suffer day in and day out despite following conventional mental health protocols. As a result, she began to question if it was possible that mental health is more than just in the brain and became passionate about the need for a more integrative approach based on the belief that one needs to prioritize their physical and emotional wellbeing to build a foundation for mental health.
Last year, Keri published her book, “Mental Health Uncensored: 10 Foundations Every Parent Needs to Know, where she shares the proven, real-life strategies that she has used in her own practice. She addresses the importance of teaching young people the positive impact that healthy lifestyle changes can have on their mental health. And she highlights to parents the critical importance of learning to let children become independent, letting go of guilt, overdoing and over worrying. Keri emphasizes modeling basic mental health habits such as being able to say “no” and setting up good boundaries in relationships.
