As Westchester families prepare for back-to-school, mental health is top of mind. In this episode, host Jim Jockle sits down with Dr. Alec Miller, co-founder of the Access Psychology Foundation, to talk about how we can better support kids, parents, and schools in navigating today’s challenges.

Dr. Miller shares how his foundation is expanding access to mental health care, training more diverse therapists, and bringing evidence-based tools like DBT and CBT into local schools. From mindfulness and emotion regulation to the role of parents at home, this conversation offers practical strategies to help our kids thrive.

Tune in for an eye-opening discussion on balancing competition, fostering resilience, and why moderation is the key to healthier families and communities.
