Don’t miss this information-filled episode with Jason Bohn, who holds a master’s degree in clinical psychology and has almost 30 years of working with children, youth, and families. Jason’s career started in the child welfare system, and he developed the Renew Counseling Center Adolescent Intensive Outpatient Program for adolescents struggling with anxiety and depression. Jason attributes the youth mental health crisis to a variety of factors, including the rapid advancement and lack of training in regards to technology, that our institutions are no longer reliable, and that young people’s brains are not fully developed. The adolescent  IOP program blends a few different treatment theories into what Jason calls the BOLD living skills to help kids find more effective ways to regulate their emotions and then their behaviors. Listen as Jason enumerates the BOLD process of the IOP program and gives listeners tips on how to help themselves or their loved ones.
