The 3 Letter Word That Can Change Your Parenting Game Forever

This week Dr. Kim is talking with Dr. Regine Muradian about how to support children to find their strengths through empathy, validation, and a growth mindset.

Dr. Regine Muradian is a licensed clinical psychologist, children’s author, speaker, consultant, and mental health advocate. Dr. Regine has taken the lead in her field since beginning her practice and continues to “up the ante” and excel as a forward-thinking professional and zealous advocate. For example, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and she realized that children would have increased struggles with mental health, she wrote and published two children’s books to support children’s emotional well-being (Franky and the Worry Bees and Franky and His Homeschool Adventures). She has a third book titled Francine and Her Special Talents. While publishing these books was a positive contribution to the community, she still felt driven to address the broader issue of children’s mental health in public schools by co-founding a mental health advocacy organization called Team Project RISE (Recognizing and Improving Support for Educators), which advocates for a teacher training program that equips educators with the tools they need to better identify, and interact with, students with mental health struggles (www.teamprojectRISE.com).

In her clinical practice, Dr. Muradian works with children, adolescents, and adults who present with a wide range of emotional stressors. Specifically, she specializes in Anxiety (as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional), ADHD, Depression, Eating Disorders/Body Image, Self-Esteem, Crisis and Family Intervention. Dr. Muradian is also a specialist in Psychological and Neuropsychological Assessments, and has supervised and trained doctoral interns working to acquire clinical practice skills. (Previously, she was the Director of Behavioral Health Services with the Good Samaritan Hospital). As a parent expert for the past 15 years, and a mother of three children, Dr. Muradian has spearheaded a variety of workshops on positive parenting and mental health education. Since 2010, she has taught the 6-week Positive Parenting Series at various high schools in California. Dr. Muradian continues to pursue her clinical and advocacy work to help inform, educate, and spread awareness about the important issues involving the mental and behavioral health of the community at-large.
