“Big Feelings” Reminder
💭 Kids have big hearts — and sometimes, big feelings too!
At NEIBH, we help children learn to express emotions in healthy ways through play, art, and conversation. 💛
Let’s remind our little ones: it’s okay to talk about it.

October is National Depression & Mental Health Screening Month!

Just like regular checkups keep our kids physically healthy, mental health check-ins help support their emotional well-being as they grow and face new challenges.

Children and teens can experience stress, worry, or sadness too and early support makes a big difference. Taking time to talk, listen, and seek help when needed shows kids that their feelings matter.

✨ Today’s a great day to check in with your child, your teen, or even yourself.
If you’ve noticed changes in mood, sleep, or behavior, we’re here to help.

Our caring team at Chrysalis Children’s Center offers support for kids, teens, and families.

💚 October is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

At Chrysalis Children’s Center, we believe caring for our minds is just as important as caring for our bodies.
✨ World Mental Health Day is October 10th
✨ The first week of October is Mental Illness Awareness Week

Let’s use this month to remind kids (and ourselves) that it’s always okay to talk about feelings, ask for help, and support one another. 🌿
