Channel Title: Adaptable | Behavior Explained Channel Description: I'm Kelly O'Horo, Attachment based EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant, and EMDR Trainer. I'm a mom of 5, Nonna of 5, wife, and a healer. I have the honor of spending my workdays walking along side people while they brave their healing journeys. I try to live with the generous assumption that we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Therapists are teachers for the "life stuff" and "emotional vocabulary" that may not have been learned due to gaps in our care givers capabilities. In the last 15 years I've learned that people are freaking amazing, resilient, and inspiring. Most importantly, we are hardwired for connection and for healing! I hope to bring an authentic, compassionate, and unpolished approach while we explore a variety of topics such as parenting, marriage, relationships, dating, trauma, attachment, adoption, depression, addiction, anxiety, and love! There's a why for all behaviors and an explanation that makes perfect sense as emotion is at the root of it all. <video> It's important that we give our kiddos the independence they need Description: Letting our kids have the independence they need can be difficult, especially when all we want to do is protect them. But giving them the chance to navigate challenges now helps them build the skills they’ll need to thrive in the real world later. It’s all part of raising confident, capable humans!! ​​ ​​Watch the full show, Tips & Tricks for Parenting Your Teen on Adaptable | Behavior Explained, available on YouTube or wherever you podcast! 🎧 </video> <video> Healing Trauma Stored in the Body Description: Welcome to Adaptable | Behavior Explained! Trauma doesn’t just live in our minds—it’s stored in our bodies through implicit memories, the ones we feel rather than consciously remember. These deeply rooted patterns can’t be healed by logic alone. That’s why bottom-up therapies, like EMDR or somatic approaches, are so powerful. They help us safely access and reprocess these maladaptively encoded memories, releasing what words alone can’t reach. Healing is possible—your story is still being written.

Description: The good news is that emotions can be regulated, even when they feel all-consuming. It’s so important to remember that emotions are temporary—they don’t last forever, even if it feels that way in the moment. They come and go, like waves in the ocean. When we remind ourselves of this, it gives us a little breathing room, a chance to pause and respond instead of being completely pulled under. With some patience and the right tools, we can learn to navigate our emotions and find our way back to calm and balance.

Description: When someone is in an extreme state of panic, it’s not just about what’s happening in the moment—it’s often tied to wounds from the past that haven’t healed. Panic is the body’s way of saying, ‘I’m still carrying this.’ It’s a signal that compassion and gentle healing are needed to process what’s been left unresolved.
