From Overwhelmed to Empowered: How Brain-Based Therapy Helps Kids Think Clearer with Kellie Boyle

In this episode of More Than Words, Tristen sits down with Kellie Boyle, LPC, founder of Reprocess Therapy, to talk about two powerful, brain-based therapies: EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Brainspotting.

Kellie explains how both methods help children with learning challenges, ADHD, or anxiety quiet the “negative noise,” process early experiences, and build more confident, flexible thinking. She also shares insights on how parents’ own emotions can shape their child’s growth and how staying regulated and self-aware can make all the difference.
