Raise your hand if the end of the school year has your mind spinning! 🙋🏻‍♀️

A few end of the school year survival strategies for parents currently operating on fumes:
-Lower the bar. Dinner can absolutely be snacks.
-Put everything on a shared family calendar.
-Sit in the parked car for 5 extra minutes before going inside.
-Hide one (or four) good chocolates from your family. Survival stash.
-Celebrate tiny wins…everyone wore shoes, no one forgot pickup, you found the library book.

Remember that exhausted, overstimulated parents everywhere are also whispering “we are almost there” and “what the…” into their coffee…

Cheers to the end of the school year! Where the kids are free, the teachers are heroes and the parents can finally unclench their jaws…at least until the camp emails start rolling in. 🤣

Mother’s Day can be beautiful…and complicated…sometimes both at once…❤️

To the moms giving everything they have every single day…I see you…❤️

To the people missing their moms, grieving, longing to become a parent, navigating distance, loss or complicated relationships…I see you too…❤️

Mother’s Day doesn’t feel the same for everyone…and that’s okay…❤️

So, whether you’re celebrating, remembering, surviving, or simply making it through the day…you deserve love and kindness…❤️

Sending love to every heart carrying something unseen this Mother’s Day ❤️

Hi!! I am Dr. Teresa Christian! Welcome to Main Street Psychology! I believe therapy doesn’t have to feel stiff or intimidating. It can be real, relatable, and even a little bit lighthearted!! When I am not helping patients navigate life’s curveballs, you can find me fueled by coffee, embracing life’s small “guilty pleasures,” chasing my three kids, hanging with my husband and reminding everyone, myself included, that perfection is wildly overrated! Glad you are here! ❤️

Disclaimer: All of these toys were found exactly like this…spread through my house 😂

Even the toys are done today. They say absolutely not…we simply cannot…

Burnout doesn’t always look obvious…it can look like hiding in the bathroom and ignoring responsibilities

Burnout is real and it doesn’t mean you’re doing life wrong…a few small shifts can help

Which toy are you today? What is your go to burnout reset? And what can you do to reset your day?

Sleep hygiene doesn’t have to be complicated. Small changes can go a long way!!

A few basic things to try:
-Keep a consistent sleep and wake time (yes…even weekends…)
-Create a wind-down routine
-Lower lights and reduce screens before bed
-Save bed for sleep (and not endless scrolling)
-Watch caffeine timing
-If you can’t sleep, get up briefly instead of stressing in bed

Sleep hygiene isn’t about being perfect at bedtime…it’s about giving your brain and body a fair shot at rest 😴

Respectfully…Google is probably not helping…

Anxious Googling can feel helpful in the moment but usually causes chaos 10 minutes later 😬

If this feels familiar…take it as a reminder to pause ❤️
