The next chapter of our ADHD Moms Support Group begins March 3rd!

If you’re raising a neurodivergent child and quietly wondering, “Wait… is this me too?”... this space was created for you.

This group isn’t about behavior charts or parenting hacks. It’s about you.

Motherhood already comes with an enormous mental load. Add ADHD (diagnosed or questioning), executive functioning challenges, sensory overload, and constant overstimulation? It’s a lot.

Inside this 8-week virtual group, we’ll explore:
• how ADHD shows up in moms
• executive functioning + the invisible mental load
• sensory overload + emotional regulation
• overstimulation + co-regulation
• ADHD vs. neurotypical parenting stress
• embracing strengths
• integrating tools + supports

You’ll connect with other moms who truly get it, in a judgment-free space designed to support your lived experience.

✨ Includes an interactive weekly workbook with visuals, reflections, and practical tools you can actually use.

Details:
• 8 weeks
• Virtual
• Tuesdays at 12pm
• Begins March 3rd

If this feels like the exhale you’ve been needing, we’d love to have you!

Valentine’s Day is a sweet reminder that love isn’t one-size-fits-all!

From extra hugs and lunchbox notes for kiddos, to late-night talks with teens, to quiet acts of service for the adults in our lives, we all receive love a little differently.

Take a look at the 5 Love Languages across ages and notice what makes your people light up. A small shift in how we show love can make a big difference in how it’s felt.

Joining a social skills group can bring up a lot of questions, for kids and parents.

Our latest Dandelion blog, written by Madison Backer, group leader for our girls groups, walks families through what to expect when their child begins a social skills group at Dandelion Family Counseling... from finding the right fit, to those very normal first-week nerves, to how progress is tracked over time.

At Dandelion, our groups are thoughtfully designed to build confidence, foster connection, and support real-time problem-solving with peers, all with a therapist guiding every step. We offer multiple social skills groups for children ages 4–13, a therapist-led group for moms, and our Beyond Social Skills group for anxious kids. Most of our groups run year-round, so support can grow alongside your child and family.

If you’re curious about whether a group might be a good fit for your child (or yourself), this blog is a great place to start.

This visual is a reminder of the quiet magic in imagination, writing, and pencil-to-paper moments. When children slow down to create by hand, they build focus, confidence, and a deeper connection to their ideas. Sometimes the simplest tools give kids the biggest space to grow.

Do you ever feel like your child is having a tough time navigating their emotions? You’re definitely not alone! Managing feelings like anger, sadness, or excitement can be a whirlwind, especially for kids. Remember, it's essential for parents to model healthy emotional regulation. Sharing your own feelings can help your children understand that it's okay to express their own. Check out the following slides for some simple ways to help your children express and regulate their emotions.

Family life is rarely simple, and when neurodiversity is part of your story, it can feel like everyone in the house is operating on a different rhythm. In our newest blog, Dandelion therapist Alyse Bone offers an honest and encouraging perspective on parenting, partnership, and connection in neurodiverse families.

This blog reminds us that these differences aren’t problems to solve, but patterns to understand. When we let go of perfection, stay curious about one another, and focus on repair and relationship, more peace becomes possible. If your family life feels both deeply meaningful and deeply exhausting at times, this one's for you!
