Podcast SummaryJoin us in an engaging conversation with Bryce Hamilton, a licensed specialist clinical social worker and child and family therapist, as we explore the intricacies of anxiety in children. Bryce shares her journey of co-creating the "Accidental Experts" podcast with her best friend, a pediatrician, aiming to provide parents with strategies to navigate family life. From the humorous realities of podcasting from home to addressing serious topics like anxiety, ADHD, and autism, this episode offers a rich resource for families seeking guidance and support.
Listen in as we uncover the challenges parents face in recognizing and addressing anxiety in children. Bryce helps us understand the different manifestations of anxiety, including OCD and PTSD, and the importance of identifying symptoms like procrastination and physical discomfort. She explains the role of the amygdala in triggering false alarms and highlights the need for parents to validate their child's emotions while encouraging growth beyond comfort zones. We also tackle the issue of parental guilt, emphasizing that genetic predispositions play a significant role in anxiety, reminding parents that they're not alone in this journey.
This episode also focuses on the emotional aspects of parenting, the significance of self-care, and how parents can model healthy emotional expression for their children. We explore therapeutic approaches such as play therapy, CBT, and EMDR, emphasizing their role in helping children manage anxiety. Bryce introduces us to SPACE training, a program designed to help parents support their children without enabling avoidance. Throughout our conversation, we stress the importance of creating a nurturing and communicative environment, offering parents the tools and insights they need to support their families effectively.
