概要

 Parenting is the most profound journey we ever take, but it’s also the one that exposes our deepest vulnerabilities and brings up our own “stuff.” Welcome to Kids These Days, a podcast hosted by Dr. Courtney Lynn, licensed psychologist and founder of Integrated Behavioral Health. This isn’t another parenting show telling you how to be perfect. Instead, we dive into the messy, complex reality of raising children, teens, and young adults in the modern world. Combining evidence-based practices with deep self-awareness, we explore the "why" behind your child’s behavior and the "source" of your own emotional triggers. From navigating the unique developmental challenges of every stage—from the foundational years of early childhood to the complex transitions of adolescence and young adulthood, Dr. Courtney and her team of specialists provide the practical tools and clinical insights you need to move from reactivity to calm, attuned presence. Whether you’re a parent, stepparent, or part of a complex family system, Kids These Days is your weekly permission slip to be imperfect while building a home where everyone feels seen, heard, and validated.Copyright 2026 Dr. Courtney Lynn 人間関係 子育て 心理学 心理学・心の健康 衛生・健康的な生活

    The Architecture of Repair: Building A Secure Base with Emma Abel Loach, LMFT
    2026/04/07
    "Their behavior is a longing for connection."If you’ve ever found yourself in a "boiling point" moment—where a simple request turns into a door-slamming explosion—then this episode is your permission slip to stop being a "Fixer" and start being an Anchor.In this conversation, I’m joined by Emma Abel Loach, M.Ed., Ed.S., LMFT, the Clinical Director at Thrive Couple and Family Counseling Services and a triple-certified supervisor in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). We slow down the "Family Cycle" to look at the unspoken stories happening under the surface of our most stressful parenting moments.Key Takeaways from This Episode:The Family Cycle: How parents and children get caught in "meaning-making" loops. Often, what we see as "bad behavior" is actually an unclear signal for a deep attachment longing.The "Manager" vs. The "Anchor": Why our instinct to jump straight to consequences often misses the point of the behavior.The 33% Rule of Repair: Emma shares the research-backed relief that we only need to get the "repair" right about one-third of the time to build a secure attachment with our kids.Accountability over Auditing: Why the parent’s primary job is to regulate themselves first before attempting to co-regulate with their child.Setting Boundaries with Empathy: How to hold a firm "No" (like the Billy’s house example) while still making your child feel seen and understood in their disappointment.Slowing Down the Cycle: A 3-Step FrameworkEmma outlines how to handle a "rupture" (like a door slam or a shutdown in the car):The Internal U-Turn: The parent regulates their own nervous system first. You cannot be curious if you are in a state of panic or rage.The Curious Approach: Re-enter the space with your child by acknowledging the "suck." Use phrases like: "I saw that, and I get that it sucked. I want to understand what that was like for you".The Logical Rewrite: Once the nervous systems are calm, move into the second half of repair—the "left brain" retelling of what happened and finding a way forward together.Resources & Links:Connect with Emma: Learn more about her work at Thrive Couple and Family Counseling Services.Work with IBH: Visit Integrated Behavioral Health for therapy and assessments in Denver and across the United States.Featured Resource: Download our Internal U-Turn Workbook to help identify these cycles with your parenting partner.IBH Newsletter: Join the community and start your 3-Day Parenting Reflections journey.Found this episode helpful?

  • More Than a Mouth: Why Your Baby’s “Tension” Might Be an Oral Tie with Dr. Kayla Culbertson

    More Than a Mouth: Why Your Baby’s “Tension” Might Be an Oral Tie with Dr. Kayla Culbertson
    2026/03/31

    “I looked, and I don’t see a tie.”

    For many parents, this sentence is the beginning of a long, frustrating journey of chasing symptoms like fragmented sleep, chronic gas, and delayed motor milestones without ever finding the root cause.

    In this episode of Kids These Days, Dr. Courtney Lynn sits down with Dr. Kayla Culbertson, a pediatric Occupational Therapist and specialist in tethered oral ties. Dr. Kayla shares her own "in the trenches" story of how an oral tie release for her son resolved 8 days of constipation and changed his nervous system overnight.

    We move beyond the anatomy of a "string under the tongue" to explore the Inside-Out reality: how the fascia in our mouths is connected to a "Frontal Line" that travels all the way to our toes. If the system is tight at the top, the whole baby feels the flood.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    1. The Frontal Line: Why oral ties cause "fisted" hands, curled toes, and hiked-up shoulders.
    2. Function over Anatomy: Why a "posterior" tie can be invisible to the eye but devastating to a baby's regulation.
    3. The Vagus Nerve & GI Connection: How the tongue's position at the palate acts as the "off-switch" for the survival brain.
    4. Compensations vs. Growth: Why you don’t "grow out" of ties; you simply grow into lifelong workarounds (and the toll that takes).
    5. The Therapy Bridge: Why you should never "just cut the tie" without prepping the nervous system first.

    Remember: You don't have to be perfect to be a great parent, we are all learning about how to raise Kids These Days.

  • Why Your Child Refuses School: Understanding School Avoidance and the SPACE Protocol

    Why Your Child Refuses School: Understanding School Avoidance and the SPACE Protocol
    2026/03/24

    Morning stress, "tummy aches," and the desperate plea to stay home—school refusal is one of the most taxing challenges a family system can face. In this episode of Kids These Days, Dr. Courtney Lynn is joined by Dr. Alex Littleton to discuss the "School Refusal Trap." They dive deep into why our well-intentioned efforts to ease a child's distress can inadvertently reinforce their anxiety. Using the framework of the SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) protocol, they provide a roadmap for parents to move from "managing" the morning crisis to becoming a "Secure Base" for their child's resilience.

    In this episode, we cover:

    1. Defining School Refusal: The difference between a "bad morning" and a persistent pattern of avoidance.
    2. The Accommodation Trap: How "rescuing" our kids from discomfort tells the brain that school is actually dangerous.
    3. The SPACE Protocol: Why treating child anxiety through the parents is often more effective than traditional therapy.
    4. Supportive Statements: The two-ingredient formula (Validation + Confidence) that shifts the internal narrative.
    5. Red Light vs. Yellow Light: Why negotiating with an anxious child only "speeds up" the anxiety.
    6. Home as "School": Practical steps for changing the home environment when a child stays home.
    7. The Snowball Effect: Why building resilience in one small area helps the rest of the accommodations "melt away."
