Hey fans! Did you know that Papa Ganache has a social service program?!?
Vegan bakery and therapy?!
Combining the model of intensive in-home and in-community intervention used within the NJ Children’s System of Care and blending PGP’s unique spin on services to give kids, tweens, teens, young adults, parents/caregivers, and families an alternative space to meet – a bakery – to develop and strengthen skills to show them that they are more than their challenges ... because if you can handle the responsibilities of listening to the rules of the kitchen, baking a personalized cupcake, cleaning up the dishes, and waiting to dive into the treat - those are real life skills in action! Not to mention the discussions that naturally come about when whisking the ingredients or waiting for goodies to get baked.
We use the bakery as a meeting space and a true ‘backdrop’ for services to meet with our clients in the Matawan and Manasquan areas. We also meet in client’s homes, in their communities, and virtually with telehealth. The spirit of the program is the same. We use every day interventions to develop and strengthen skills – emotional regulation skills, life skills, social skills, frustration tolerance, family communication, to name a few.
It’s a unique blending of ideas – and a recipe for success!
*PGP is not a baking/cooking training program

PGP Mentoring helps teens develop job skills.

PGP is unique because we have access to the Papa Ganache Vegan Bakery. We use the bakery as a meeting place for our services – and for skill building!

Our mentoring program is pretty special – we offer hands on experiential skill building. Mentors meet with teens at the bakery to volunteer with their mentor and learn basic entry level job skills, while also learning how to manage their mental/behavioral health symptoms in the workplace. Mentors use strengths based feedback to build teen’s self-esteem. We provide guidance and support to strengthen social skills and learn how to interact with the public. We collaborate to work on resume writing and job applications. We practice interviewing skills, and learn how to dress to impress at that first interview!

Therapy is … a unique kind of relationship. What? Relationship?! Yes, a therapeutic relationship! This is different than a friendship, although is friendly! Therapy is a relationship focused on YOUR mental/behavioral health challenges, processing emotions, and developing coping skills. This is different than a typical friendship. A friendship is not so well defined. Therapy has parameters to create a space that is collaborative, professional, confidential, based in mutual respect, empathy, and nonjudgment to help you work on your goals, address your thoughts, feelings, behavioral patterns, mood regulation, coping skills, and a supportive place to be challenged. Therapy is a place to heal and grow within a relationship that is focused on you and your progress.

Hello 90+ degrees! The rest of this week is going to be a scorcher! Summer is certainly here!

In addition to monitoring physical signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and preventing heat stroke, it is also important to recognize that the heat impacts our moods. Heat tends to exacerbate our crabbiness – heat exacerbates anxiety, ignites anger, increases irritability and agitation, lowers frustration tolerance, increases feelings of overwhelm, tiredness/lethargy, and can cause confusion (that can also be a sign of serious physical symptoms).

Take it easy on yourself and your loved ones because when it’s hot our tempers can flair - stay cool, and monitor your mood.
