About Me:
I’m Emma McAdam. I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have worked in various settings of change and growth since 2004. My experience includes juvenile corrections, adventure therapy programs, wilderness therapy programs, an eating disorder treatment center, a residential treatment center, and I currently work in an outpatient therapy clinic.
In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love www.churchofjesuschrist.org/c...

    Today I was writing in my journal because I was feeling depressed and didn’t get much sleep. I suddenly broke down and had a crying fit to the point where I was hyperventilating and I thought I was losing my mind. I’ve been grieving my dads death and my moms dementia diagnosis. After I let it all out, a wave of calm came over me and I noticed my neck and shoulder pain instantly disappeared. I felt so good afterwards.

    i totally relate to this!! i had this reaction with my first job and it continued the 4 years i had that job. my body remembered the smells and sounds and total environment of that place, so even the slightest trigger or reminder of it would flood me with anxiety. even when i go back to that store now i get the same feeling. i think it’s best to embrace the feeling instead of trying to fight it, and maybe if you have a trusted coworker, confide in them. i find that when i can be honest about how i’m feeling and validate the anxiety, some of it goes away. and of course, releasing your body tension somehow as recommended in this video.

It’s videos like this that are helping me understand why I feel the way I do and what to do about it. It’s not just one video, like a magic pill. But each video gets me just a little bit closer to where I need to be. For that, I’m truly grateful.

    I know this is an older video but I wanted to share: I am a mom of 7 with a history of past traumas. I’ve suffered for years with post partum depression but I have been too ashamed to admit. I also thought it was my own fault and a decision I was making. I am currently post partum and the depression has been so intense this time that I’ve finally been open to admitting it. My grandmother suffered terribly and was in and out of asylums in the 50’s. She finally took her life when I was six. I think because of her story I am motivated to fight for a better life. I judged her once but now my heart breaks for her as I suffer from the same thing. I’m looking for ways to manage this naturally as I’m breastfeeding and want the best for my baby. One of the things I’ve been doing is light exposure. I make my family breakfast then bundle myself and baby and step outside to get the first rays of sunlight. We live on a farm and this morning my father in law had the radio on in the barn and I could hear it while I walked around. “That old time rock n roll” came on and I realized deep down I was telling myself to stand still. Then I remembered this video and I let myself start dancing a bit with my baby. We rocked and swayed my hips, smiled at my baby and just really got into it. I can be very goofy in general so I did not feel entirely stupid. Plus we live in the middle of nowhere so I knew no one was watching:) as I danced the urge to cry came over me and I did not hold back like I usually do. I’ve lost my dad to cancer, my grandmother to suicide, I’ve lost six babies to miscarriage and I had those hurts held up inside. I just released them. It felt very good and I will keep doing this. For anyone reading, and thank you for taking the time if you do, please know that getting help for mental health is not selfish. It is the best thing you can do for you and society. Strengthening your body, mind and soul makes you better able to serve those around you. So take the time to try this. Admit where you are and find ways to heal. It’s the best investment you could ever make. As for Therapy in a Nutshell, I am a subscriber and I watch at least one video a day. These are perfect for a busy mom of seven who needs to get her mental health sorted and lacks a whole lot of free time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

    When I saw the title I wondered if she was going there. I experienced exactly what that bear was doing for half and hour immediately after a chiropractic adjustment two years ago. I had just separated from my wife after thirty years of marriage, and attributed this event to my life-long habit of being an "emotional stuffer". My voice also dropped an octave just before the shaking started, and never returned to its "old" normal pitch. This is the first time I've seen this phenomenon mentioned, and she is the first therapist that I feel could help me. It's difficult to describe how it feels to say that. It may be "safe", but feels very alien to me.

Even to family or "loved ones", maybe this will help me heal. The video makes so much sense and explains alot of my life woa.

    The session is not free...it's almost 200$... So many of us realize we have things to work on due to our traumatic experiences (ones outside of our own control, that we shouldn't have to pay for. I didn't choose this for myself, I was put through it). But we can't afford to get the help we need to better our lives, as well as those around us. What's the solution to this. Outside of universal healthcare, I can't think of anything else..😅 I also have undiagnosed ADHD. My executive function is nearly disabled. So knowing and doing what should be done, on my own, is so overwhelming that it doesn't get done. Some of us need the structure of a professional to help us dig out of our child trauma holes. So. Anyone have solutions for getting structured professional help without the finances to do so?

It has helped me a lot... you write: - what's bothering you - your thoughts about it (this is what you base your " alternative thought on", below) -your emotions -now write " alternative thoughts " to the thoughts that you wrote above ... basically an opposite thought to your first original thought... Then you will feel a shift inside...and your feelings will change and oftentimes how the person that offended you... their feelings change towards you too

And I am tired of myself too as I don't have a job. I didn't know what's wrong with me but from the past few months, I got to know that I have trauma and even if I want to go to therapy my family won't allow it. Once I talked about therapy to my family they rejected it.

    I have absolutely experienced the sudden outburst of emotions during acupuncture. It’s wild to have such huge emotions pour out, emotions I didn’t even know I had. I need to express that, while I know there are competent and well-meaning mental health professionals out there, in 20 years I’ve met a lot of them and not one has helped. Most of them have caused more harm to me and my family. It seems the “good” therapists are the ones on KZread (the ones trying to help more people than those who walk in the door with money). Videos like this, along with a spiritual approach to understanding my own trauma, have provided me with the tools to understand my issues and how to overcome them. The mental health profession as a whole is, like other institutions in this country, missing the mark. Thank you so much for making these videos so that people can help themselves when the system fails.

    As with most conversations, the amount of talking vs. listening should be about 50/50. If you (or your therapist) is doing most of the talking, then it is not a healthy communication relationship. In other words, there are times when you need to pour out your soul. But on average, it should be about equal. Plus, the therapist should be helping with problem solving, teaching new ways of thinking, teaching relaxation, giving homework, etc. Unfortunately most therapists are just sympathetic parrots. That's ok for some people, but I think it is a waste of my time.

    That’s when it’s the most important to do so. What you do is you say: I’ll only do it for 5 or 10 minutes. That’s it. And then you stay as long as you want after those 5 or 10 minutes. You’ll feel better immediately because you’ll have had a success and you’ll have released endorphins. Also, give yourself the 3 second rule: I have three seconds to get up an do this 5-10 minute exercise. 1-2-up! If you wait longer than that then you won’t do it. You lose. So, set a small success + 3 second rule and you’ll be better than ever ;-)

It’s hard when you’re low and it requires pushing yourself, but the key is kindness, absolutely no shaming or guilting or judging yourself, just slowly get yourself to do this caring thing, talking like you would to a sick child to get him to take medicine.

    @Anonymouse I can imagine your struggle and appreciate that you are looking for ways to help your dad, that already is awesome itself. Eventually your dad is right tho, relatives can't actively do something to cure the pain, that's up to your dad and a therapist. It is extremely helpful to know that there is someone you can go to and just pour out your heart and them just listening and giving a shoudler to cry on. The only other thing that really helped me personally is when people offered activities, like going for walks in nature, crafting, watching documentaries, whatever one likes. And by offering I mean offering consitantly and not getting frustrated when I say no, because when I'm depressed I tend to say no 5 times before I say yes because I feel like such a burden. Just friendly and calmly letting your dad know you're there to spend quality time and get some dopamine hits whenever he is ready for it. I hope this helps a little xoxo

    You guys need to heal your throat chakras! Watch KZread videos on how to do so, usually when you are stressed or anxious and you feel something stuck in your throat it’s because you want to say something and don’t you hold back and push down that negative emotion to get rid of it but when we do that it grows (like a giant sadness of energy that we’ve ignored for years) when you feel this way talk to yourself ask why you are feeling this way? Reason with yourself rather than push yourself in the dark

    As a kid I was always stuck in the sympathetic response, and for the longest time this was just normal for me. In my late teens and now in adulthood I'm starting to unlearn that "normalcy". I'm learning how to actually self-soothe (not shut down everything emotional in order not to get yelled at for crying), how to take care of myself emotionally and mentally. I'm not crying anymore with a blank face. I'm not tired as much anymore. I'm opening up to the people who love me without worrying as much to get retraumatized. Parents, it's so, so important to help your child work through their emotions. When you talk to your kids after they do something wrong, don't yell and spank (which is hitting, no matter what you call it). When they start crying because they're scared, don't tell them "I'll give you something to cry about". Something less obvious is don't tell them "Its not a big deal". To them it is a big deal, otherwise they wouldn't be upset. Get down to where the child is, don't approach it from where you are as an adult. Please for the love of God, don't tell your child that they do X thing for attention. Mine would always tell me I did X thing that I enjoyed for attention, which would make me feel bad about liking it and that I would always have to defend my interests from them. Don't be a reactive parent, be a responsive one.

    Yin yoga really helps. If you're not familiar it's the type of yoga where you do more stretching and breathing as opposed to complex poses, so anyone can do it. After a traumatic event (an abuser living in my home) I let it all go during the yin yoga session. I balled my eyes out. Just be alone, cry, sob, scream, do what you need to LET IT GO. I believe 100% that we hold on to trauma in our body and that we have the power to let it go. It made me feel reborn after and enter the calm state. Thank you for this video.

    I just want to tell you that God loves you more than you could ever want to be loved! He wants a personal relationship with you if you will let Him into your heart. The most important decision you will ever make is where you will spend eternity. The Bible says that you can know that you have eternal life in heaven, but If you are putting your trust in anything other than the finished work of Jesus on the cross to get you to heaven, you do not understand God's way. The Bible says that we are all sinners. When God created Adam and Eve, He made them perfect without sin, but they chose to disobey God and became sinful in nature. This sin nature was passed down to all humanity. Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Our sin separates us from God. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; A holy, righteous God cannot allow sin into heaven. Sin must be paid for and God's price for sin is death, but not just a physical death, but a spiritual death which means separation from God forever in hell. Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. In the Old Testament when man sinned, God required the sacrifice of a perfectly spotless lamb as a substitute in the place of the sinner. The blood of that lamb was only a temporary payment for their sin and so this had to be done often. Jesus Christ, God's Son took on flesh, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life and offered Himself as that perfect, spotless Lamb and shed His blood as payment for the sins of the whole world. John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. Jesus loved us so much He WILLINGLY came and allowed wicked men to spit on Him, mock Him and scourge Him until He was unrecognizable. They stripped him naked, thrust a crown of thorns on His head and nailed His hands and feet to a cross. He hung in agony for hours bleeding, thirsting, struggling for every breath. He died innocently in our place so that we could be saved from going to hell. It was His blood that satisfied the just demands of a holy God. God will not accept anything else. There is no greater love than that! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The good news is that Jesus didn't stay dead in the grave. He came back to life 3 days later just like He promised and He still lives today! Matthew 28:5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. 6. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Jesus did all this because He wants to give you the FREE gift of eternal life in heaven with Him! You cannot do anything to earn your own way into heaven. You can't work for it, be baptized for it, go to church for it or try to be good enough for it. It is a FREE gift that God is offering to anyone who will simply receive it by faith. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9. Not of works, lest any man should boast. God said there is only one way to get to heaven, but it is not hard. You must admit you are a sinner headed for hell. You must believe that Jesus died and paid for your sin with His own blood on the cross, was buried and 3 days later rose from the dead. Then you must repent of your sins and call on God for mercy to save you from hell and give you eternal life in heaven with Him. Romans 10:9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 13. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. None of us deserve God's mercy and grace, but let me warn you that if you reject His FREE gift, you are already condemned and when you die, you will suffer the torment of burning in hell for eternity in a lake of fire where you will be forever separated from God and all that is loving and good. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Please don't wait. Don't take the risk of putting it off until another day, repent, turn to Christ NOW wherever you are at because you aren't guaranteed to live another day on this Earth. Believe God's Word, ask Him to save you and He will! ---------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like more information or don't have a church to attend, we livestream our services and would love for you to join us.

    @@omar-uu8qo:// this mentality can be pretty harmful. I'm a Christian, but it's still important to address your problems and unhelpful thinking patterns via processing the issue (ie in therapy or through reflection or journaling) in addition to seeking help from God. I think processing can make it easier to reach out to God, because it's easier to function when you're not in distress. God can also show you where you need work and allow you to actively work on changing. They can go hand in hand

    I have been struggling with tension in my neck for over a year. I have a seemingly weak vagal tone. In my first acupuncture treatment I became very emotional and was laughing or almost crying for around 5-10 minutes. I have also been doing different vagus nerve activation exercises and when I am able to deeply relax I often cry. During the past year I feel like I have been very out of touch with my emotions and I feel as though my nervous system is trapped in that "freeze" response. There is some deep trauma that needs release.

    I have been through a lot... I am a woman and don't look how I did when I was " innocent " ... however this will help EVERY trauma I use a worksheet called "Thought Log" ( I can email to you if you want a copy) . It has helped me a lot... you write: - what's bothering you - your thoughts about it (this is what you base your " alternative thought on", below) -your emotions -now write " alternative thoughts " to the thoughts that you wrote above ... basically an opposite thought to your first original thought... Then you will feel a shift inside...and your feelings will change and oftentimes how the person that offended you... their feelings change towards you too

    I’m a tattoo artist and there is a very common term used in our community “tattoo therapy” and in fact I’ve had many clients with past trauma, some who may have struggled with self harm, depression, addiction, and they now use getting tattooed as an outlet. Listening to the physical activation and relaxation makes me think of tattooing because it is a constant cycle of that. I myself after longer sessions have felt lighter and more clear than ever after getting tattooed.

    My niece is like this. Her mother is a crazy psycho bitch and it's not surprising therefore that she has trauma issues. I keep wondering though, what will happen when she runs out of space for her tats? I dislike the permanency of tattoos in this context. I wish she could experience relief through making paintings, for example, or another creative outlet, rather than inking her skin.

    This is interesting because I want a tattoo but I don’t have one because I think of the ink going into the nervous system and creating illness, this is part of my anxiety because a holistic lady told me once that my piercing may be contributing to my anxiety because the metal affects the nervous system, anywhooo if you could clear this up for me or what the you know about ink and how it affects the nervous system that would be great so if it’s not true I can finally go out and get a tattoo!!! Haha

    What i have experienced from many people who have gone through some kind of trauma (from irritation to significant stress) is to lash out at whoever is available. This of course, just passes the stress to others, just like passing a virus through a sneeze. Your examples of the polar bear, and the young Haitian nurses is very simple, but very good advice. Thank you.

    This showed up in my recommended list. I'm glad I clicked on it! Finally, not another person telling us they can offer some help, but then give you a big spiel about why this happens, then find out you have to buy into their program to get any of the material. Some of us are broke with no job because our anxiety has kept us down for so long. Mine has definitely gotten worse over the past few months, and after just watching two of your videos, I had a moment of calm and peace! Thank you so much for this! Subscribed!
