We’re excited to welcome Toba Rosen, LLMFT, to the Kendal Clinic’s psychotherapy team!

Toba was inspired to become a therapist through her experience teaching elementary school children and helping them become their best selves. Through that work, she realized she could do even more by having the opportunity to work with each child individually.

Her clients would describe Toba as empathetic and empowering, and her favorite part of being a therapist is helping people feel heard. She explains: “I understand that we are all influenced by our contexts and our relationships; no problem exists in a vacuum, and the context is always part of the solution. So I chose to be trained in systems theory, which is the theory that hinges on the concept that all behavior makes sense in context, and we must assess our lives within the framework of our whole system.”

Toba’s approach to therapy has also been influenced by her background and experiences. Reflecting on her childhood, she shares: “I grew up in Brooklyn, and spent my free time on the subway to and from and in Manhattan. I cultivated my fascination with people’s diverse lives while “people watching” in the city that never sleeps.” Her curiosity about people’s diverse experiences continues to inform the way she approaches her work with clients.

Outside of the office, Toba enjoys spending time with her family, as well as hiking. She especially loves connecting with loved ones over hearty homemade sourdough bread and vegetable soup!

We’re excited to have Toba on the Kendal Clinic team and look forward to seeing the compassion, curiosity, and perspective she brings to our practice. Learn more about Toba on our website: https://kendalclinic.com/provider/toba-rosen-marriage-family-therapist/

When Routines Change, ADHD Can Make Transitions Harder

This time of year is filled with transitions. Students are heading back to school, summer schedules are changing, and families are getting back into routines.

Transitions can be challenging for anyone, but for people with ADHD, changes in routine can sometimes feel especially difficult.

ADHD can affect executive functioning skills such as planning, organization, time management, and shifting from one task or routine to another. A change that seems small to someone else can feel overwhelming when there are suddenly many new things to remember and manage.

A few strategies that can help:

✔ Start early. Give yourself time to gradually adjust sleep schedules, morning routines, and other habits before the transition happens.

✔ Write it down. Use calendars, checklists, alarms, or visual schedules rather than relying on memory alone.

✔ Break things into smaller steps. Instead of “get ready for school,” focus on individual tasks: get dressed, eat breakfast, pack backpack, put on shoes.

✔ Build in extra time. Transitions rarely go exactly as planned. Give yourself - and your child - some breathing room.

✔ Keep routines consistent. When possible, keep wake-up times, meals, homework, and bedtime on a predictable schedule.

✔ Give yourself some grace. Struggling with a transition doesn’t mean you’re failing. New routines take time to become familiar.

If transitions, routines, organization, or emotional regulation are consistently creating challenges, support can make a difference. The Kendal Clinic provides care for children ages 6+, teens, and adults, including support for ADHD and other neurodevelopmental concerns.

We’re here to help you navigate life’s transitions, one step at a time.

As we head into late August, students of all ages are preparing for a new school year - from children starting Kindergarten to young adults heading off to college. These transitions can bring a mix of excitement, anticipation, and anxiety. Knowing the difference between typical back-to-school nerves and anxiety that may need additional support can help families know when to take the next step.

5 Signs Your Child May Be Struggling With Back-to-School Anxiety

• Frequent stomachaches or headaches without an obvious cause
• Trouble sleeping or significant changes in sleep
• Irritability or emotional outbursts
• Avoiding conversations about school or refusing to go
• Excessive worry about teachers, friends, grades, or being away from home

Some back-to-school nerves are completely normal. But when anxiety begins interfering with your child’s sleep, relationships, daily activities, or ability to attend school, it may be time to seek additional support.

The Kendal Clinic offers therapy for children ages 6+, teens, and adults, with immediate availability for many of our clinicians.

While summer often feels busy with vacations, camps, and family activities, it can also be one of the best times to start therapy.

For children and teens, summer provides an opportunity to build a relationship with a therapist before the structure and stress of the school year return. Starting now can help them develop healthy coping skills, manage anxiety, improve emotional regulation, and feel more confident heading into the fall.

Adults can benefit too. Whether you're navigating stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or a major life transition, don’t wait until things become overwhelming before seeking support.

The Kendal Clinic currently has immediate availability for children (ages 6+), teens, and adults. If you've been thinking about reaching out, this summer may be the perfect time to take that first step. We’re here to help.

Could your GLP-1 medication be affecting more than your weight?

GLP-1 medications have become increasingly popular because they can be very effective for weight loss. They work by reducing appetite and slowing stomach emptying, making it easier to eat less.

However, eating significantly less can sometimes lead to nutrient deficiencies. In some people, this may contribute to hair loss, fatigue, malnutrition, and symptoms of anxiety or depression.

Nutrients such as iron, zinc, B vitamins, and vitamin D play essential roles in healthy brain function, energy production, and hair growth. When these nutrients become depleted, both physical and emotional health can be affected.

Weight loss shouldn't come at the expense of good nutrition. Work with your healthcare provider to make sure your diet is meeting your body's needs while taking a GLP-1 medication.

How can you help prevent these side effects?

• Prioritize protein. Ask your healthcare provider or a registered dietitian how much protein you should be eating each day. Protein provides the building blocks needed to preserve muscle and support healthy hair.

• Choose nutrient-dense foods. Since you're eating less, every bite matters. Choose foods rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals such as lean meats, eggs, fish, vegetables, fruits, legumes, dairy, and healthy fats.

• Monitor for nutrient deficiencies. If you're experiencing fatigue, hair loss, or mood changes, talk with your healthcare provider. They may recommend checking levels of iron (ferritin), vitamin D, zinc, vitamin B12, or other nutrients based on your symptoms.

• Eat enough. Even if you're not hungry, your body still needs adequate calories and nutrients to function well. Your healthcare provider or registered dietitian can help determine what's appropriate for you.

• Rule out other causes. Rapid weight loss can sometimes affect thyroid function or change thyroid medication needs, which may contribute to fatigue or hair loss.

GLP-1 medications can be excellent tools for weight loss, but they work best when paired with good nutrition and regular follow-up with your healthcare team. Protecting your nutrition also helps protect your mental health.

If you're experiencing increased anxiety or depression, the Kendal Clinic is here to help.
