Tackle Toledo Building collaborative relationships with schools and community resources to address mental health T.A.C.K.L.E. The T.A.C.K.L.E.

is a specialized program that focuses on providing school-based and outpatient services. Program is built on developing trust and relationships with our youth, families, communities, and schools. We provide real time intervention, where youth are seen on a daily basis, instead of by appointment, or after behavior or a crisis has happened. We are not your typical Behavioral Health Agency, and have developed new and exciting alternatives to behavior health that motivates youth to get engaged in treatment.

Mental health struggles don’t disappear when we ignore them — they grow in silence. When we talk openly about feelings, stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges, we create space for understanding, connection, and healing.

For children and teens especially, knowing it’s okay to talk about mental health can be life-changing. It teaches them that they’re not alone, that their feelings matter, and that asking for help is a strength — not a weakness.

Every conversation matters. Whether it’s a check-in at home, a supportive moment at school, or reaching out for professional help, speaking up can be the first step toward hope and support.

Let’s normalize mental health conversations. Let’s listen without judgment. Let’s remind young people that help is always available — and they never have to face things alone.

By helping your child pause, name what they’re feeling, and talk through it with support, you’re teaching them lifelong skills. You’re showing them how to listen to their emotions, respond with healthy coping tools, and build confidence in handling life’s challenges — all while strengthening your connection along the way.

Growth isn’t a straight line — and that’s okay.

Healing, learning, and becoming your best self come with ups, downs, pauses, and steps backward before moving forward again.

Hard days don’t erase progress. Setbacks don’t mean failure. They’re part of the process of growing, learning, and building resilience. What matters is continuing to show up for yourself with patience and compassion.

Growth happens in its own time — and every step, even the messy ones, counts.

Mental health is real. Struggling is normal. Asking for help is brave.

Too often, teens hear myths that make them feel like they should hide their emotions or “handle it on their own.” Breaking these myths is powerful — it helps young people feel seen, understood, and supported, while giving them the confidence to take care of their mental health.

When teens understand the truth about mental health, they’re more likely to:

• Recognize and express their own feelings
• Ask for help when they need it
• Support friends and peers in seeking care
• Build healthy coping skills that last a lifetime

Struggling doesn’t mean failure — it means you’re human, and you’re learning to grow. Reaching out, sharing your feelings, and practicing self-care are all signs of strength. Every step toward understanding and support matters.

Big emotions are a natural part of growing up, and learning how to navigate them is a lifelong skill. When children see that their feelings are acknowledged and supported, they learn that emotions — even intense ones — are normal, manageable, and safe to express. This understanding builds emotional literacy, self-awareness, and a foundation for healthy relationships throughout life.

By staying calm, validating your child’s feelings, and offering tools for coping, you help them develop resilience, confidence, and self-regulation skills. You also strengthen your bond, showing them that they are seen, heard, and supported — even in the most challenging moments.

It’s time to normalize putting yourself first.

Saying no. Setting boundaries. Resting without guilt. Taking a break when you need it. Choosing what’s healthy for your mental and emotional well-being.

These aren’t selfish actions — they’re acts of self-care and self-respect. When we honor our limits, we show up as our best selves for the people and responsibilities that matter most.

Your mental health matters. Protect it, respect it, and give yourself permission to do what you need.

Emotions don’t just live in our minds — they often show up physically, influencing how we think, feel, and act.

• Stress can cause headaches, stomachaches, or muscle tension
• Anxiety may feel like a racing heart or shallow breathing
• Sadness can show up as low energy or heaviness
• Calm emotions often bring relaxed muscles and steady breathing

This mind–body connection is especially important for children and teens, who may express emotions through their bodies before they have the words to explain them. Recognizing these signals helps build emotional awareness and healthier coping skills.

Coping skills aren’t one-size-fits-all — and that’s okay. What helps one person regulate might not work for someone else. Exploring different options helps children and teens learn what works best for them.

Encourage students to choose what feels supportive in the moment using a “This or That” series!

Use this post to spark conversations at home, in classrooms, or during therapy sessions. Let children and teens know there’s no “right” choice — just tools they can use to help their bodies and minds feel more regulated.

The goal isn’t perfection — it’s awareness, choice, and self-connection.
