What We are Taking Forward

03/05/21 • 43 min

We are hopeful today as we are all post-vaccine and feeling a little safer in our world. Take a listen as we discuss what we have learned from the pandemic lifestyle and what we will take moving forward. Most specifically, the permission to say no and actually choose what we say yes to for ourselves, our kids, and our families. We also take a little minute to reflect on how strong we have all been over the last year... you should give that to yourselves, too! Thanks for listening =)

How We Explain Anxiety to Kids and Families

Anxiety is so misunderstood! In Session 1 of our 4-part Anxiety Series, we talk about how we explain anxiety in all its glory to the children and families that walk through our door. If you or your child worries, gets grumpy, is a perfectionist, puts tons of pressure on themselves, or has difficulty sleeping— this is the podcast for you! We discuss the relationship between anxiety, sensitivity, empathy, motivation, and super powers all in this one episode. And we have our talking points down, because this is the conversation we have with most of our clients and their families! We also reveal a little about how anxiety/sensitivity impacts our own lives, because we wouldn’t be therapists without it! So subscribe and follow along, because next week we are going to give you all of the details on how to actually MANAGE your anxiety when it’s getting in the way. Have a great week!
