I’m thrilled that you’ve joined our conversation today! Although some Dads may relate to this show, we’re really going to be talking about Moms. Specifically how critical Moms can be of themselves. I’m in the process of writing a book and am devoting a full chapter to this topic. I believe women are more critical […]

Parents…do you have any “worriers” in your house? I’m not talking about an occasional worry about forgetting a homework assignment. I’m talking about daily worries, ones that persist. Some worries become so severe that they stop kids right in their tracks and keep them from enjoying and participating in everyday kid activities. When I work […]

I’m so glad you’ve joined us today, as we explore PANDAS and it’s effects on children. Have you ever heard of PANDAS, or has your child ever suffered from this?

Parents, are you beginning to feel like your kids are permanently attached to their digital devices? I know I hear this from so many parents I talk to. Latest research is now telling us that we are addicted to our screens. I’ve begun to notice how much time I spend looking at my iPhone, just […]

Life can change in a second, especially when you hear your doctor say, “It’s cancer”. These are words that we all dread to hear. Not only do those two words affect the person with the disease, but also their family and friends. Often families are left in shock and aren’t quite sure what to do […]

Do you find that you get caught up in the daily chatter of your mind? It’s so easy to let our to do lists, frustrations, fears, and anger cycle round and round in our head. We often become consumed by our story…how unfair life is, and we’re often quick to judge ourselves and others. Well, […]

Parents, do you feel that your life is out of control? That your calendar is on overload and your stress level is rising? Omid Safi, a journalist, has recently coined this the “disease of being busy”. Stress levels are rising across the country, not only in adults but also in children and teens. We know […]

Parents, do you find yourself frustrated or angry with your children? Yes, we’ve all had those kind of days! What about the days when we get frustrated or angry with ourselves? I think we’ve all experienced our fair share of incessant thoughts and chatter that race through our mind each day, sometimes on overdrive. […]

For many years, parents have asked me to help them with their children’s behavior. As parents, we’ve all had our own experiences when our children misbehave or act out, and we’re easily reminded how frustrated we become. As parents, I’m sure we’ve all felt our own emotions take over when our child is melting down. […]

For quite awhile I’ve wanted to have a conversation about child abuse…but something kept stopping me. I felt that it was an important conversation to have, but one that felt very heavy and dark. I realized that it also hit too close to home for me. I witnessed physical abuse of my brothers, and […]

For many years, I have been deeply concerned about the way we treat each other in society. As a parent, I’ve often wondered, what are we teaching our children…what are we modeling for them? In my own work, as a child & adolescent therapist and parent coach, I’ve been very concerned about children and families. […]

Most parents I know work very hard to raise their kids responsibly. As parents, we want the best for our children. I’ve talked with many parents, who share with me, that they suffer when they see their child suffer or struggle. I too remember watching our kids as they became frustrated or perhaps struggled with […]

I’m sure if you have more than one child, you’ve already figured out that each of your children are different from one another. Or perhaps you have an only child but have observed how your child differs from your friend’s children. You may be wondering why your child becomes easily upset or overwhelmed while you’re […]

I can’t believe that summer is almost over! I remember when my children were younger we tried to pack the summer with fun activities while allowing for slow summer days…and none of us were ever truly ready for summer to end. I also remember joking with my Mom friends and asking them if they were […]

Have you noticed how busy our lives have become and how disconnected we’re feeling with each other and nature. We often yearn for simpler times, perhaps remembering our own childhood, when we’d spend many afternoons outside connecting with nature and allowing our imaginations to entertain us for hours. As a play therapist, I often recommend […]

Recently, I’ve noticed more and more parents expressing concern about their children’s lack of appreciation and gratitude for what they have in their lives. Just yesterday, I met with a mother who was frustrated with her children’s lack of respect for money. She shared that her kids really didn’t even appreciate how much things cost […]
