When everything around them feels busy or unpredictable, kids rely on routines to feel safe and grounded. A steady rhythm—morning check-ins, consistent transitions, visual schedules—can make December feel much more manageable for their minds and bodies.

If your child struggles with changes this time of year, our team is here to help.

Sometimes, the best lessons come from the messiest moments. 💛

Beautiful Oops! by Barney Saltzberg is a joyful, interactive book that teaches children (and grown-ups!) that mistakes aren’t the end — they’re the beginning of something new.

At CATS, we love using this story to spark conversations about creativity, problem-solving, and self-compassion. Because when kids learn that an “oops” can turn into art, they also learn that they’re still amazing — even when things don’t go as planned. 🎨

Mistakes aren’t failures — they’re opportunities to practice growth. 🌱

Our CATS Connection Groups help children build confidence, problem-solving, and emotional regulation through play, collaboration, and compassion. 💚

When mistakes happen (and they always do!), our OTs help kids understand what went wrong, reflect on how it felt, and discover strategies to try again — without shame.

Because every “oops” is really just a chance to learn. 💫

At CATS, our values aren’t just words on a wall — they’re how we show up for our clients and each other.

💚 Relationship – We connect before we correct.

🌱 Growth – We keep learning, every day.

😊 Enjoyment – We find joy in the journey.

🤝 Accountability – We own our actions and our impact.

🙏 Gratitude – We appreciate the small wins that make big change possible.

If this sounds like your kind of team, we’d love to hear from you. 💫

The teenage years can be tough — full of big emotions, social pressure, and self-criticism. 💬

At CATS, we help teens build self-compassion by:

💚 Reframing “I failed” into “I’m learning.”

🌿 Practicing mindfulness to notice emotions without judgment.

🤝 Recognizing they’re not alone — every teen struggles sometimes.

When teens learn that self-kindness isn’t weakness, but strength, they build the emotional resilience needed for adulthood. 🌱

Every brain is different — and that’s a beautiful thing. 🌈

At CATS, we celebrate neurodiversity by creating spaces where kids feel understood, respected, and supported exactly as they are.

Self-compassion starts with self-acceptance. When children learn that there’s nothing “wrong” with how they think, feel, or process the world, they build confidence that lasts. 💚

Growth isn’t always about “fixing” something — sometimes it’s about appreciating how far we’ve come. 🌿

At CATS, we remind families that gratitude and growth work together:

💚 Gratitude helps us pause and celebrate progress.

🌱 Growth keeps us moving forward with hope.

Every small win counts — whether it’s trying again after frustration, or taking that extra deep breath before reacting. We grow best when we’re kind to ourselves along the way.

Self-compassion grows best in environments where kids feel supported, safe, and empowered. 🌿

Our In-Home Occupational Therapy Services help families create spaces that:

💚 Encourage calm through predictable routines.

💬 Support communication with gentle coaching and coregulation.

🌱 Build self-kindness by focusing on progress, not perfection.

When compassion is modeled at home, children learn that emotions — even the tough ones — are safe to explore.
