I didn’t always know I was struggling. I didn’t always know help was out there. This post is about what being a mental health advocate looks like for me, and why I share what I do.

I have had quite a few people asking me about this and wanted to share this helpful graphic from Self-Love Rainbow 🌈

You’re not imagining it. Summer can mess with your mental health too.
If you feel drained, overstimulated, irritable, or like you want to punch the sun… you’re not alone.

Including PCIT into my approach with all my clients under ten has been such a great addition that aids the whole family.

🎉 As we continue celebrating 25 years of service at Children and Family Counseling Associates, we’re highlighting the powerful, evidence-based treatments that have made a lasting impact on the families we serve. 💛

One of our most transformative interventions is Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) — a highly effective, research-backed approach for young children with emotional and behavioral challenges. 🧒👩‍👧

✨ We offer PCIT for children ages 3-7 to help strengthen the parent-child relationship while reducing disruptive behaviors, such as:

✅ Aggression
✅ Defiance
✅ Tantrums
✅ Oppositional behaviors
✅ Parent-child conflict

In PCIT, parents are coached live during sessions to build positive interactions, improve discipline strategies, and feel more confident and connected. 💬🎧

Our trained clinicians work side-by-side with caregivers to promote lasting change at home, school, and in relationships. ❤️

If you're looking for tools that work—and a therapeutic approach that supports both the child and the parent—PCIT might be the right fit. Let’s grow strong families together!

I know it feels like a paradox. When you're maxed out, the last thing you wanna do is add another thing to your plate or do something that causes you to fall behind - but when you're super stressed, that's when you need self-care the most.

When you’re overwhelmed and everything feels like too much, having ways to self-soothe can help you ride through those emotions - one of the reasons I love DBT.
