This podcast delves into the alarming trend of medicating children for behavioral issues and mental health concerns. Host Gris Alves shares her extensive experience working with children and adults over the past 30 years, including her time with the Federal Public Defender's Office.
Gris examines the deeper roots of behavioral issues, such as unprocessed emotions, intergenerational trauma, and attachment problems. She argues that medications often serve as a temporary fix, masking deeper issues that require a more holistic approach.
Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, Gris advocates for alternative methods like therapy, family support, and somatic practices. She emphasizes the importance of understanding and addressing the underlying causes of distress rather than relying solely on medication.
Gris also discusses the societal and cultural factors contributing to the rise in child medication, urging parents and caregivers to look inward and seek more meaningful solutions. She concludes by offering resources and support for those looking to explore alternative approaches to healing and well-being.
Join Gris Alves in this eye-opening episode of "Tales of Recovery" as she challenges conventional wisdom and encourages a more compassionate, informed approach to child mental health.
