Anxiety doesn't always look like worry — especially in young people. Children and teens often express distress in very different ways, and many of those signs can be easily misunderstood as "behavior problems" or "attitude." For younger children, anxiety may show up in the body or through clinginess and difficulty with change. Teens, on the other hand, may become more irritable, withdrawn, or overly focused on perfection. Understanding these differences helps parents, caregivers, and educators respond with support rather than frustration - and gives young people the emotional space they need to feel safe, regulated, and understood.

This season is a reminder that healing doesn’t always look dramatic. Often, it looks like self-awareness, gentleness, and the courage to show up for yourself one moment at a time. Save this for the days you need the reminder!

Emotional awareness is one of the greatest gifts you can bring to your relationships. Journaling gives your thoughts a place to land, helping you slow down, notice patterns, and understand your emotions with more clarity and compassion.

These prompts help you reflect, and understand what’s happening inside, so you can communicate with more clarity and less reactivity.

Save them for your next journaling moment.

As a therapist, I remind couples that conflict isn’t a sign of failure — it’s a sign of two humans trying to be heard. Conflict is a natural part of every relationship — it’s how we handle it that matters most.

Calm resolution doesn’t mean avoiding hard conversations; it means creating emotional safety, listening to understand, and finding a way forward together.

What’s one communication skill you’re working on this season?

Real intimacy starts with connection - noticing your partner, responding to their needs, and creating a safe space to be seen and heard.

Small daily gestures matter more than grand romantic moments. The little ways you turn toward each other, build trust, deepen emotional closeness, and keep love thriving.

As we step into the first week in November, I’m reminded how powerful it can be to pause and take inventory of where we are — emotionally, relationally, and personally.  Sometimes we move so fast that we forget to notice how far we’ve come, how much we’ve healed, and what (or who) we’re grateful for along the way.  Gratitude has a way of grounding us. It softens the edges of stress, helps us feel more connected, and reminds us that progress - even quiet progress - should be celebrated. This month,  be intentional about appreciating the small wins. Share in the comments all of the things you’re grateful for today!
