EXCITING NEWS! The TRAILS Course is now LIVE on Saffron's website!

To accompany the launch of our TRAILS counselling program for children displaying problematic or harmful sexual behaviour, we have built a comprehensive online course for adults on the same topic.

Learn about children's sexual behaviour and development, the difference between developmentally normative, problematic, and harmful sexual behaviours in children, and how to respond to these behaviours if they arise.

7. Still little but so grown up. Around 7 is when their brains develop an understanding of the really scary things that happen in the world. Monsters shift from scary under the bed creatures to bad guys and kidnappers. Their worlds move from small to big. Going into this time I have learned to brace myself for extra snuggles, longer bedtime routines and lots of big feelings. We will make it. Most importantly our kids will know that the next scary obstacle is not something they have to face alone.

One of the most meaningful things I have learned in working with kids is to learn how to apologize. We won't get it right 100% of the time, and when we apologize we teach them how to do it too.

Has your child ever looked up at you while doing something great? Like scoring goal, or landing a cartwheel, or pointing their tippy toes? These interactions with your kids demonstrate that you're there, fully present, and showing up just for them. We would love to hear some great moments your kids noticed you were watching. Keep showing up ❤️

This is a great demonstration of active coping skills and tapping. Please share with kids in your life who might need a little extra self love as well as coping strategies. 💚

Parallel activity can be so helpful in giving space for kids to share. Some of my most meaningful work as a therapist and a mom come from the moments where I am just being present.
