Gabby is currently attending the Queensland ADHD Conference watching some amazing talks about ADHD.

One of the important take aways is that an ADHD child hears 20,000 more negative comments by the age of 12. Therefore supporting an ADHD child and the systems around them is extremely important. Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria can have a big impact on emotion regulation for an ADHD person.

28 January is International Lego Day. Lego is a great tool for play but also in the therapy room. Using Lego in therapy can offer several benefits, especially in the context of developmental and psychological therapy. Here are some key advantages:

1. **Enhances Fine Motor Skills**: Building with Lego bricks helps in the development of fine motor skills. The act of picking up, manipulating, and connecting the small pieces is great for hand-eye coordination.

2. **Boosts Creativity and Imagination**: Lego allows for endless possibilities in creation, encouraging individuals to use their imagination and creativity. This can be particularly beneficial in therapeutic settings where self-expression is essential.

3. **Improves Problem-Solving and Spatial Awareness**: Constructing with Lego requires planning and problem-solving skills. It also enhances spatial awareness as individuals learn how different shapes and sizes fit together.

4. **Encourages Communication and Interpersonal Skills**: In group therapy settings, Lego can be a tool for cooperative play, where participants work together on projects, improving their communication and interpersonal relationship skills.

5. **Reduces Anxiety and Stress**: The repetitive nature of connecting Lego bricks can be very calming and meditative. This can help individuals who are dealing with anxiety or stress.

6. **Facilitates Emotional Expression**: Sometimes, it’s easier to express complex emotions and experiences through creative play rather than words. Lego can provide a medium for individuals, especially children, to express their feelings in a non-verbal way.

7. **Used in Structured Therapy Programs**: Programs like LEGO-based therapy are specifically designed for children with autism and other social communication difficulties. It provides a structured setting where children can develop social understanding by building Lego in groups.

8. **Improves Focus and Attention**: Building with Lego requires a degree of concentration and focus. This can be beneficial for individuals with ADHD.

9. **Offers a Sense of Achievement**: Completing a Lego project can provide a sense of accomplishment, boosting self-esteem and confidence.

10. **Adaptable for Different Ages and Abilities**: Lego can be used with a wide range of ages and abilities. There are various types and sizes of Lego (including larger Duplo blocks for younger children) that can cater to different skill levels and developmental stages.

Lego in therapy is a versatile tool that can assist in the development of fine motor skills, enhance creativity, and offer therapeutic benefits in terms of emotional and social development.

I would like to introduce Glenda, who is working out of Gabby Bond Psychology face to face and Telehealth. Glenda will be working face to face once a month on a Thursday starting this Thursday.

Glenda’ bio:

‘I’m a Registered Psychologist based in Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

I’m a very positive, compassionate and respectful person. Empowering people to make positive changes and cope with difficulties is a valuable skill and something I love to do as a career.
What gives me joy in my life is reading, yoga, swimming, walking along the beach listening to the waves, sharing meals with friends, and playing with my grandchildren.

I work with clients who are facing a variety of issues including: depression, grief and loss, stress, relationships, self-esteem and confidence, and life transitions. My clients describe me as warm and inspirational, with a real talent for helping them to look within and achieve their goals.��Everyone’s journey is unique, and I’ll always create a welcoming and safe space for you to build future goals and work with you to heal and thrive.’

If you would like to work with Glenda, please contact admin on 07 3448 9291 or email admin@gabbybondpsychology.com to book an initial session.
