Today, we're delving into a topic that many of us can relate to – dating. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned dater, we've got you covered.
After graduating in psychology and completing masters in developmental psychology Sadia began teaching in inner London schools amongst children of deprived backgrounds. She then went on to teach privileged students in Dubai and noticed not only the economic but psychological advantage wealth provides children when their parents can access therapy. Sadia decided to complete her studies in psychotherapy and decided to post a few videos online mainly to make therapy accessible to those who may struggle to afford it and to make therapy more digestible to those who may not understand the concept. The videos blew up and changed her career path to online therapist, podcaster and content creator racking over 100 million views online.

This podcast presents a powerful perspective for helping your child-clients become centered. It’s based on understanding your kids’ needs through The Aspect Compass, a model representing four aspects of the psyche: The Artist (emotions), The Scout (cognitions), The Warrior (behaviors), and The Chief (executive skills). Each aspect has unique needs that, when addressed, can help children become centered and balanced:
For the inner Artist:
Attention and validation are essential for children's emotional well-being. Offering appropriate outlets for expressing emotions through words or art is encouraged. Support in facing fears and containing grief, while directing processing of grief to a therapist, are all important ways residentials staff support The Artist feeling centered.
For the inner Scout:
Engaging in activities that focus on sensory perception and cognitive exploration helps children become cognitively centered. Physically exploring and navigating an environment will help kids experience behaving like a scout. Encouraging accurate reporting will develop their abilities to be an effective scout, and will help their inner Scout feel centered.
For the inner Warrior:
Helping children establish goals, fostering a sense of agency, and recognizing their achievements are essential for their behavioral well-being. Ensuring physical safety, health, and relaxation are also key components of centering the inner Warrior. Structured time for relaxing is an important part of helping the inner Warrior feel centered.
For the inner Chief:
The Chief plays a crucial role in coordinating the other aspects and needs self-awareness, integrity, and wisdom. Developing a sense of appreciation, belonging to a community, and engaging in service to others are vital for the Chief to feel centered.
This podcast emphasizes that understanding and addressing these needs can help residential staff design therapeutic programs and create environments that promote positive learning and growth for child clients, ultimately helping them become emotionally, cognitively, behaviorally, and physiologically centered while fostering a sense of community and belonging.
This podcast discusses the importance of coregulation in residential treatment settings for children who are emotionally, cognitively, and behaviorally disorganized. Coregulation refers to the process where an adult's nervous system synchronizes with a child's, helping the child learn self-control and emotional regulation.
Coregulation starts from infancy when a baby's nervous system is linked with the mother's. Over time, babies learn to independently regulate their bodily functions, but they still rely on coregulation for emotional stability, and for learning how to organize thoughts, and regulate behaviors.
Human Beings use coregulation before they learn self-regulation. Self-regulation involves controlling the electrical and chemical activity within one's brain. It includes skills like reaction inhibition (thinking before acting) and stress tolerance (tolerating stressful situations).
Residential staff play a crucial role in teaching executive skills like reaction inhibition and stress tolerance to children in their care. They achieve this by actively engaging with the children, whether through play, games, daily chores, and all the other scheduled activities.
Some executive skills directly regulate behaviors, such as self-awareness and metacognition (thinking about one's own thoughts), while other executive skills organize thinking, such as planning and prioritizing. These skills are also developed through coregulation and practice.
Various activities, such as playing games, watching movies, and relaxation exercises, are all opportunities for coregulation. Staff should actively participate in these activities with the children, creating shared experiences that foster emotional and neurological coregulation.
Coregulation, coaching, and cheerleading by residential staff help children develop self-control, emotional stability, and cognitive executive skills. The goal is to gradually transition children from dependence on coregulation to independent self-regulation, ultimately preparing them to leave residential treatment with improved emotional and cognitive abilities.
Physical Restraints are, in my opinion, the best option for safely dealing with violent behaviors among children and youth in residential treatment.
Self-injurious behaviors need to be stopped before they lead to permanent, or at least significant, damage. Assaultive behaviors need to be stopped before they lead to harm.
Runaway behavior is a more nuanced judgement call. Sometimes staff can continue to monitor a runaway child or youth. However, allowing a troubled kid to be on their own in a wilderness, urban, or other environment can place them in serious danger.
Property damage can sometimes be monitored without physically intervening. However, in my experience, when kids are allowed to rage they tend to escalate to the point where they are creating a real safety risk to themselves and others. There are also practical limits to how much damage a facility can financially endure.
There are alternatives to physical restraint, including mechanical restraint, chemical restraint, and seclusion. However, each typically are preceded by a physical restraint.
In addition, mechanical restraints tend to be very frightening for the child or youth, require a separate type of training for the staff, require constant monitoring, and the transition into the mechanical restraint frequently requires more directed force than a physical restraint. They also lack any tactile feedback for staff to help determine when the level of restrictiveness on the restraint can be lessened.
Chemical restraints require specifically trained personnel, and most residential treatment programs are not licensed to use them.
Seclusion tends to result in either the client raging in the seclusion room to the point where a physical restraint may have to be re-established to prevent self-harm, or the client calming down which implies that they don’t really need seclusion. In my experience seclusion can be an effective tool to ending a violent situation; however, in most cases I have not seen it provide enough advantages to outweigh the added risks and the dehumanizing treatment of the client.
Some physical restraint systems train staff in the use of pain compliance holds. These can greatly shorten a physical restraint and may be a legitimate tool for programs that can’t bring enough staff into a restraint situation (such as wilderness therapy programs that are in isolated setting rather than operating as part of a multi-unit campus). However, inflicting pain on children is morally repugnant and it may be that programs that can’t, when needed, devote four or five staff to a physical restraint simply can’t serve some clients.
Performing physical restraints subjects staff to “small t” trauma. There are things staff can do to minimize the effects of that trauma on their nervous system, which will make the staff person more resilient to this stress.
