Coping with your child's big feelings and stress during the pandemic

Parenting in this pandemic has been intense in so many ways! It’s been hard for so many families, but having a child with additional needs adds another layer of intensity to the everyday demands and stress. We get it. You were already handling a lot, even before you were forced to become a work-from-home super-parent slash multi-subject educator. Pile on any additional needs your child may have, and it can feel like it’s just too much..

Living in close quarters with no breaks or outlets for our children has triggered frustration to its highest. And the tolerance of all family members is at it lowest. We have heard from so many parents that your children are unmotivated, disengaged, acting out and even regressing in skills they once had. And you need support.

We got you!

If you need support with your child’s big emotions AND practical strategies to build social skills, you don’t need to go it alone. We offer parent coaching that can cover:

👉What to SAY and DO when your child is struggling, shutting down, or acting out so they calm down and get control of their big emotions, quickly.

👉What to TEACH your child so they develop the social-emotional skills they need to live a happy, fulfilling life—and how to do it.

👉 If it seems like your child could benefit from specialized support, we can create a holistic plan that will help with your child’s immediate challenges, like low motivation, disengagement from school tasks, and big feelings...  All while building social-emotional coping skills that will not only work now, but will continue to improve your son or daughter’s life, long after this pandemic ends.
