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...

What really helped me to get out of this thought pattern was shifting it from "Oh I did it bad. I am bad at this." to "Oh I could have done that better. Let me do it better!" It takes practice to think this way. But once it clicks, everything gets easier, because you give yourself more and more chances to actually improve.

The issue I have is when it’s not something that can be a do-over. For instance, regretting not speaking at your mother’s funeral. Or not acting at a necessary critical moment and you recognize later it was not your true self or represented your values to not act. Forever gone are those missed opportunities and it feels like you can’t get past it and you have now put yourself on a strange new course or direction in your life. You see your life as needing to be a culmination of events handled well. But life is always just this present moment and the past is simply memory.

I have been told people with depression can often have unrealistic expectations and thinking habits towards themselves, their own life, and life in general. Like seeing their own life in an overly negative way and comparing it to a fantasy life that is overly positive. Truth is there is positive and negative in most if not all lives. Becoming more balanced and realistic in the way I see myself, my own life, and life in general will support me I think.

1.Notice how you are thinking - Using extreme words, Notice in which scenarios they occur, look at them instead of through them 2. Does this thinking help me live the life I want to live? 3. Name an emotion instead of the distorted reality ex : No one likes me - I feel lonely 4. Explore other ways of seeing the problem - What do i learn that will help me do better next time 5. If we really want to change our thinking, we have to Chose to be vulnerable 6. Practice self compassion It also helps me to take a couple of deep breaths relax and look at the broader perspective. To remind myself how far i have already come.

New subscriber here. Thank you for this video. I have depression and an ED. Black and white thinking has been a consistent theme since I first developed depression 12 years ago. I often wonder how many opportunities were missed because of this way of thinking. What’s funny is that I was much better at seeing the shades of gray when I was a kid. I remember playing sports and being very accepting of not always winning, but also being determined to improve and to get up and try again. In 6th grade, I was the worst clarinet player in band. By 8th grade, I won “most improved student” and made the all-city symphony. I never felt defeated. I felt like I had an opportunity to improve, which is really such a gift. Amazing that my thinking was more refined and productive as a kid than it has been as an adult. So, instead of feeling defeated and remorseful for spending so many years as an “all or nothing” thinker, I am seeing an opportunity to improve. I am accepting of my faults and weaknesses, celebratory of my strengths and wins. I am not defeated; I am curious.

This is me when it pertains to dieting! If I mess up with one spoonful of a food on the "do not eat" list then I will not exercise or eat well for the rest of the day. As a matter of fact, I will pig out on ice-cream and chocolate candy. This is a never ending battle in which I am always at a loss. Hope I can be more mindful of this and change my way of thinking.

Some great ways to look at difficulties and mistakes in life. Some of us we're not taught healthy ways to deal and one reason we think in all or nothings is because we were taught this growing up. My parents were always saying "it's probably for the best you don't even try, honey". It was their way of keeping me dependant on them and enmeshed.

Then i received a message from someone at work who referenced a quote by her signature about how we can't grow if we stay in a place out of a fear to stay safe.

Nicole, How are you now? Be careful what you feed your mind. To feel better reduce negative thoughts and overthinking. Avoid comparing with others, reduce negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed, avoid moving too much and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Never meditate with expectations but with awareness. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Observe your breath sensations before sleep, in college, at work, taking a walk, when reading, etc.etc anywhere-anytime. . Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a better life. Best wishes--Counsellor.

You help me sooooo much!! I knew there was a way out of anxiety, but I couldn’t figure it out completely by myself. I thought of you and what you’ve taught me when the dentist filled my cavity this morning, while crying and shaking because my dental health -neglection by my parents when I was a kid- is part of my mental health problem. Dear Emma, I’m SO greatfull for your decision to try to help people all over the world, for free. ❤️

Johanna, How are you now? Be careful what you feed your mind. To feel better reduce negative thoughts and overthinking. Avoid comparing with others, reduce negative social media and avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Your breathing is closely related to the brain [mind] and gives relief from stress-anxiety. To relax sit on a chair or lie down, neck straight, eyes closed, avoid moving too much and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for 5-10-15 minutes or more. Never meditate with expectations but with awareness. Don’t fight your thoughts. With daily practice the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Observe your breath sensations before sleep, in college, at work, taking a walk, when reading, etc.etc. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a better life. Best wishes--Counsellor.
