Bibliotherapy-Family Changes

Bibliotherapy is a creative art therapeutic approach that uses literature to aid in the therapy process. Children’s books can be an excellent clinical tool to support children’s exploration and understanding of their world and life experiences. This is a great tool I often give to parents in order to continue the therapeutic work outside of the office.

Why Are Social Skills Important For Children?
Why Are Social Skills Important For Children?

Did you know that children start learning social skills from the time they are born?  They learn to interact with their caregivers with eye contact or facial expressions.  Children will continue to learn age appropriate social skills as they grow and develop, however; if a child is diagnosed with anxiety, ADHD, or autism for example, this can be more challenging to develop on their own.

Am I really Angry?
Am I really Angry?

Anger. Every one feels it, right? Anger can come in small or little doses.

But, is anger really what you’re feeling? According to Robert Pluchick, you’re not.

Breathing Exercise of the Week!
Breathing Exercise of the Week!

This week’s breathing exercise is probably the one I employ most frequently in my everyday life.
