Relationsips are deepened when its recognizes we set boundaries with loved ones because we want them in our lives. Repairing ruptures requires engagement in the healing process: deep self reflect, take responsible, repair, and corrective action. It’s possible to restart. ❤️

Happy New Years Eve!

Good Morning,

For a New Start…
1️⃣Ground + Breathe (2–3 minutes): Before checking your phone, sit up, place a hand on your heart, and take 3–5 slow, deep breaths. Name one thing you’re grateful for and one small intention for the day. This anchors your attention and calms the mind.
2️⃣Move with Purpose (7–10 minutes): Do a short, intentional movement session — gentle yoga, a brisk walk, or a quick bodyweight routine. Focus on how your body feels rather than performance. Movement wakes up energy and signals to your brain that the day is beginning anew.
3️⃣One Clear Priority + One Small Win: Choose one priority for the day (a single, doable task) and complete one tiny win right away—clear a surface, reply to one email, or make a healthy breakfast. Momentum from a small completion makes bigger tasks feel possible.

Feelings come and go. Do not allow a feeling to take away a moment in time. Feelings do not have to guide you.

Reading through the miscues during the holiday season.

12/24/2025

I’m feeling grateful, honored and deeply blessed this holiday season. Thank you to all those that allowed me to witness parts of themselves. Each of you are on my mind and in my heart. I will be back into the therapy space in 2026.

Free VIDEOS EXPLAINING ADHD TO CHILDREN & TEENS
https://www.socialworkerstoolbox.com/explaining-adhd-videos-for-children-teens/
This resource brings together clear, child friendly videos that help explain ADHD in a way children and teenagers can actually understand.

ADHD is often talked about in ways that feel confusing, negative or overwhelming. These videos explain what ADHD is, how different brains work, and why things like focus, impulse control, emotions and schoolwork can feel harder for some children. The explanations are simple, visual and reassuring, helping children make sense of their experiences without shame or blame.

The collection includes videos for different ages, from early years to teenagers. Some focus on what ADHD feels like day to day, others explain how the brain works, what happens at school, or why getting into trouble can sometimes happen even when a child is trying their best. There are also resources that introduce neurodiversity and help children understand that brain differences are a normal part of being human.
