Listen Later

On today's episode we are going to continue exploring the large world of mental health. And to make sure I don't get too far out of my depth I have requested the help Dr Alexandra Rogers, a 30 year practicing psychologist.

During her career she focused on individual and group therapy, parenting groups, and implementing school-based interventions. She gave presentations on suicide prevention, relaxation techniques, parenting autistic children, police training on handling autistic individuals. Today we discuss:

- Understanding ADHD and its symptoms

- Medication vs. alternative treatments for ADHD

- Preparing neurodiverse children for school

- Exploring potential causes in the rise of autism diagnoses

- Gender differences in autism presentation

- Therapeutic approaches for children and parents

- Exploring obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)

- Self-hypnosis and anxiety management techniques

- Gender differences in autism presentation and more!

Let me offer a suggestion, grab your loudest portable speaker capable of pairing with a device that can play a podcast, turn on an episode of Revelizations, go to a densely populated area with great acoustics, crank up the volume, and laugh maniacally as the unsuspecting population looks around in confusion to the situation they are in.
