Ever look up at the stars and find yourself wondering what’s really out there?

For many Autistic and ADHD individuals, curiosity isn’t just a trait; it’s a way of experiencing the world. Big questions, vivid imagination, and a natural drive to explore ideas beyond what’s visible or expected.

At Dandelion Family Counseling, we truly understand ADHD and Autism, not as problems to fix, but as unique ways of thinking, learning, and being. When curiosity feels big, overwhelming, or misunderstood, having someone who gets it can make all the difference.

Neurodivergent minds bring depth, creativity, and wonder into our world. And that curiosity? It’s something to be supported and celebrated.

Hey wonderful Dandelion families!

Do you often feel overwhelmed or pressured to meet everyone's expectations while parenting? You're definitely not alone! Many of us experience challenges like procrastination, perfectionism, and even people-pleasing tendencies that can make life feel extra tough.

Here are some friendly reminders and tips to help navigate these feelings:

✨ Remember, it's okay to take a break! Sometimes a few minutes to step back can give you the clarity you need to tackle challenges.

✨ Acknowledge your accomplishments, no matter how small. YOU are doing a fantastic job, even when it feels like you're not!

✨ Don't hesitate to lean on your support system. Whether it's friends, family, or our amazing community here, sharing experiences can lighten the load!

✨ Setting boundaries is key! Know that saying "no" doesn't make you a bad parent; it prioritizes your well-being.

Happy Holidays from our family to yours!

Anger can be one of the most confusing emotions for parents of ADHD and Autistic children. Outbursts, shutdowns, and meltdowns often feel sudden, but in reality, they’re usually just the visible tip of something much bigger.

Anger isn’t defiance; it’s communication. And with the right tools, it can become a powerful pathway to understanding. The Anger Iceberg is a tool we use to help children and parents understand what’s happening beneath the surface. Check out the latest Dandelion blog for more:
