Name Your Emotion / Name It - Claim It
Feelings are not good or bad, they just are:  if you can name your feeling you are on your way to manage your emotions with healthy thoughts and better choices.
Listen you your own body and try to understand the clues you are being given.  When you understand your emotions you can then decide if this emotion is helping you to stay safe or distracting and hurting your emotional well being.

Counseling Classes in Session!

Well, we are back and rolling.  I hope you and your children are feeling a bit more settled into the new school year and the routine that comes with it.  I am happy to say we have already started counseling classes with the students.  I have a rotating weekly schedule called A, B and C Week.
