Are you a new parent? Have you recently become the caregiver for a young child, maybe as a result of things beyond your control? Are you the parent or caregiver for a toddler, or a child with a developmental delay or disorder, or a child who has experienced trauma or other disruptive or challenging circumstances? Maybe your family is going through life changes and transitions. Or maybe you are experiencing post partum depression or anxiety (this happens to mothers AND fathers!) Maybe you are a teacher or childcare professional trying to support kids and families. You need support and compassion; a place to be real and just breathe
As an infant and early childhood mental health provider, my role is to support anyone caring for children, parents, or caregivers. This includes pregnant people, partners/spouses, mothers, fathers, aunts, uncles, grandparents, medical providers, educators, childcare workers... Sometimes this means therapy for the adult, or the child, and often for both.
I have spent most of my career helping families: as a volunteer, a childcare worker, a teacher, and for the last twelve years as a counselor. And, most importantly to me, as a mom. If we the adults are not OK, how do we expect the children we care for and about to be OK? Come have a snack or grab a cup of coffee or tea, and we'll figure it out together.
