• S2 E5: When Feelings Run Deep: Supporting Emotionally Intense Children & Teens with Emily Yi

  Today Rebecca is joined by Emily Yi from Jacksonville Creative Therapy to talk about supporting emotionally intense teens and young adults. We'll explore this intensity or "emotional overexcitability," and explore how it shows up, and why intensity can be a strength rather than a flaw. You'll receive guidance and practical tips for supporting the emotionally intense child in your life, and learn to recognize the signs that indicate further help is needed.  For more information on Emily, visit https://jacksonvillecreativetherapy.com/ Visit https://www.jesusandyourmentalhealth.com/ to order your copy of Rebecca's book or to find out more about her practice.

• S2 E3: Who Am I? The role of Identity in Faith and Mental Health

  Today's conversation is about identity—how God’s truth forms who we are versus building identity based on performance, wounds, or roles. The episode explores practical distinctions between calling, assignment, and self-worth, and highlights ways to reframe false beliefs through family-of-origin work, thought replacement, and therapeutic tools like EMDR. Rooted in Scripture and prayer, the discussion offers hopeful, faith-based steps for anyone struggling with shame or shifting life seasons, and points listeners to community resources and further support.
