Is your child struggling at school—and you’re not sure what support is available?

Schools have several layers of mental health and educational support, but knowing what to ask for can feel overwhelming. From school social workers and counselors to 504 plans and IEPs, understanding your options can help you advocate for your child and recognize when additional support may be needed.

Ever feel like you're walking on eggshells around someone?

Some adults respond to stress, conflict, or disappointment in ways that can feel surprisingly childlike—through blame, outbursts, manipulation, or emotional reactivity.

In his latest blog, Jason Lowe, LCPC, shares four steps for navigating these difficult relationships while maintaining your self-respect and compassion for others.

We’ve all experienced it…the high-pitched screaming…growing louder with every passing moment…the flailing of arms and legs…and the various faces on those involved—shock, embarrassment, frustration, apathy, or outright anger. Yes, I’m describing a childish fit. Many of us have witnessed...

Have you ever felt like your emotions are running the show?
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based approach that helps people develop practical skills for managing emotions, navigating relationships, and coping with life's challenges.

DBT focuses on four key areas:
✔️ Mindfulness
✔️ Emotion Regulation
✔️ Distress Tolerance
✔️ Interpersonal Effectiveness

Originally developed to support individuals struggling with intense emotions, DBT skills can benefit almost anyone looking to build healthier coping strategies and stronger relationships.
In our latest blog and video, we explore what DBT is, who it can help, and what you can expect from a DBT Skills Group.
