Our May Book of the Month is... Avoiding Anxiety in Autistic Children, A Guide for Autistic Wellbeing by Luke Beardon, PhD. It is recommended by Small Brooklyn therapist Cecilia Barbosa, LCSW.
📚📚📚
Cecilia says "Dr. Luke Beardon offers readers a roadmap to thoughtfully and intentionally support Autistic nervous systems. The book helps us better understand the mechanics of anxiety and the specific settings where Autistic children most often find themselves, emphasizing the critical importance of context regarding this universal emotion.
Dr. Beardon clearly outlines how anxiety manifests within communication, school, sensory profiles, and social life. Each of these areas is further broken down to promote a deeper understanding of and alignment with the Autistic experience. The book's bedrock principle, Autism + Environment = Outcome, provides a clear foundation for furthering our understanding of anxiety in Autistic individuals. It serves as a guide for identifying concrete actions adults can take to avoid and mitigate that anxiety, help children understand their own bodies and brains, and ultimately encourage self-advocacy and inner peace."

Our April Book of the Month is... Breaking Free of Child Anxiety and OCD by Eli R. Lebowitz, PhD recommended by Small Brooklyn's Director of Parent Programs, Maddy Clark, LCSW.
📚📚📚
Maddy says: "What makes this book so impactful isn't just the advice, it’s the shift in perspective. Most traditional therapies for childhood anxiety focus on the child, but Dr. Eli Lebowitz’s SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) program focuses on the parents.
It addresses a fundamental truth: when children are distressed, our natural instinct is to protect them, often by accommodating their fears (like sleeping on their floor or answering the same reassurance-seeking questions a dozen times). While well-intended, these accommodations often inadvertently fuel the anxiety.
This book provides a compassionate, step-by-step roadmap for parents to reduce accommodations, provide high support, and regain control. It is an essential resource for any parent feeling controlled by their child’s anxiety, offering a way back to a more peaceful, functioning household. Keep an eye out for the picky eating specific edition, coming out this August!"

Understanding Learning Disorders: Tuesday, April 14th, 12-1pm

Many children struggle with reading, writing, or math at some point in school. But how do you know when a challenge reflects a true learning disorder rather than a temporary hurdle, attention difficulties, or differences in learning pace? Professionals may tell you to get a neuropsychological evaluation, but how does this help?

Dr. Danielle diFilipo and Dr. Amira Hanna will describe how learning disorders present in the classroom and at home, and they’ll outline how neuropsychological evaluations help identify students in need.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

- the basics of learning disorders in reading, writing, and math
- the differences between learning disorders and other kinds of difficulties
- how learning disorders are diagnosed through a neuropsychological evaluation
- how evaluations translate into practical recommendations for school and home

Overall, participants will better understand different kinds of learning needs and how to seek effective support. Danielle and Amira will answer questions from the audience at the end, moderated by Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani.

This webinar is held in partnership with Park Slope Parents! Registration is free for PSP members and $25 for non-members.

Our March Book of the Month is The Color Monster by Anna Llenas, recommended by Dr. Sam Jeannite.

Dr. Sam says, "The Color Monster is a fun and engaging children’s book that offers families a gentle, approachable way to talk about feelings. Through bright colors and simple storytelling, the book helps children begin to recognize and name emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, fear, and calm. Its unique and playful style makes big feelings feel less overwhelming and easier for young children to understand.

For parents, this book can be a wonderful tool to spark everyday conversations about emotions. Reading it together creates natural opportunities to ask your child what they are feeling, build emotional vocabulary, and support early emotion regulation skills in a warm, supportive way."

Reminder- Webinar Tomorrow! 🧒👧👦

Tiny Humans, Big Feelings: Toddler Behavior and Parent Sanity
Wednesday, February 11 - 12:00-1:00pm

Parents of toddlers have all been there: the shoes are on the wrong feet, the toast is cut the “wrong” way, and suddenly a meltdown is in full swing. If you’re struggling to hold your boundaries while your toddler is tantruming, you aren’t alone. How do such big emotions come out of such tiny bodies? And how can parents help kids handle their big emotions while keeping calm themselves?

Maddy Clark, LCSW, of Small Brooklyn Psychology, will address all of this in this upcoming webinar. She’ll dive into:

- Why toddlers’ brains literally can’t control their impulses (yet!)
- Concrete scripts for biting, hitting, and tantrums
- Strategies for how to stay calm when you’re being triggered

This webinar will help you understand the toddler years (and not just survive them!). Maddy will save time at the end for a Q&A with participants, moderated by Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani.

This webinar is held in partnership with Park Slope Parents! Registration is free for PSP members and $25 for non-members.

For February's Book of the Month, we're recommending a book written by our very own Dr. Gabby Marton!

Can I Tell You a Secret? Lyla Faces Her Fear of Throwing Up is a gentle, reassuring children’s book. Drawing from her clinical work with anxious children, Dr. Gabby introduces young readers to Lyla, a seven-year-old who struggles with emetophobia, the fear of throwing up

Through Lyla’s journey, children meet Dr. Gabby, a warm and supportive psychologist who helps Lyla face her fears using evidence-based strategies rooted in exposure and response prevention. The story normalizes anxiety, builds emotional understanding, and shows children that fear doesn't have to stay big forever.

Gabby writes with compassion and clinical insight. This book is a valuable resource for children who worry about getting sick and for caregivers looking for language to talk about anxiety in an empowering, developmentally appropriate way. It is especially well suited for therapeutic settings, family reading, and children learning to practice bravery one small step at a time.

For January's Book of the Month, Small Brooklyn's Drector of Therapy, Dr. Rebecca Abbott-Sinclair, is back with another favorite: 10 Rules for Raising Kids in a High-Tech World by Jean M. Twenge, PhD.

Dr. Rebecca says: "The 10 Rules for Raising Tech-Healthy Kids is a practical, science-backed guide designed to help parents navigate the complexities of raising children in the digital age. Grounded in Twenge’s extensive research on generational shifts and mental health, this book provides clear, actionable "rules" to help families balance screen time with the essential experiences of childhood. I recommend this book because Twenge's message is not only approachable and effective but also offers a roadmap for protecting a child's development without saying parents should abandon technology entirely. It's a great resource for parents looking to foster resilience and focus in their kids while maintaining a healthy, connected family dynamic. While reading, parents can reflect on their own digital habits and use the book’s data to set collaborative boundaries that feel fair rather than restrictive."
