INTERRUPTED
Dr. Jodee Gibson, PCC
Developmental Health Researcher and
Originator of Interrupted Emotional Development Theory
From teen mom to PhD, my work was built on one belief: mental health challenges are not always disorders to be labeled and medicated, they're simply evidence of interrupted development. Given the right environment, development can always resume.
We believe the mental health crisis has a simpler explanation...
We challenge the status quo by teaching educators, clinicians, and behavioral health systems to look at developmental origins rather than the symptomatic surface.
Dr. Gibson has a published, empirically grounded theory, peer-reviewed research, and a half-day training that makes that shift possible.
