Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! In this conversation, Kelly and Victoria discuss the intricacies of parenting, tackling the fine line between being the cool, laid-back parent and the strict enforcer. The examples they share, like expecting an 8-year-old to be independent or coddling a 15-year-old, hit home for anyone navigating the unpredictable terrain of parenting. Victoria expresses the struggle with parents either pushing their kids to grow up too soon or holding onto the reins for too long, creating a delicate dance of independence. There's also a nod to breaking free from traditional gender roles in parenting – because, yes, dads can do bedtime routines too. It's a crash course on maintaining sanity while parenting, wrapped up with a big shout-out to all parents out there, acknowledging that parenting is indeed the ultimate wild ride. If you've got burning questions or fancy joining one of Victoria's support groups, check the details below. Here's to navigating the parenting journey with a whole lot of love!
I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and Advanced Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing!
I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all.
