If you’ve ever wondered why some things feel harder than they should, it might be because you’ve been living in a world not made for you.

Many adults have gone their entire lives not realizing their true strengths because they have always focused on their perceived weaknesses.

🚨 But that doesn’t have to be the case. 🚨

Once you learn your unique strengths and understand the why behind your challenges, you will walk away with clarity, confidence, and the tools to thrive.

Visit our website to learn more about how Thriving Child Center’s psychological evaluations for adults just might be the doorway to a whole new understanding of all of the things that make you . . . YOU.

You never thought you would be here.

Now, you’re suddenly thrown into the middle of a custody battle, trauma case, or court process you never expected to face.

Dealing with the legal system is hard enough, and doing it while emotions are high and children are involved adds to the mountain of stress on your shoulders.

At Thriving Child Center, our forensic psychologists work with families, attorneys, and the court to protect what matters most: your child’s well-being.

If you’ve found yourself here, you don’t have to go through this alone. We’re here to help make this process a little easier and a lot clearer.

Happy Halloween! 👻

Tonight isn’t about the “perfect” costume, Pinterest-worthy pumpkins, or how much candy you (we mean your kids 👀) get!

The best Halloween tip we can give is:

🔮Focus on the moments together, not the mayhem!

Hold your little one’s hand, capture their giggles, and take in all the awesome costumes. The candy is great, but the memories are even better and last a lot longer!

10/22/2025

If your child changes their mind about costumes every other day (Elsa ➡️ Batman ➡️ Paw Patrol), here’s one strategy that can help:

👉 Set a clear deadline for choosing. Let your child know, “We’ll pick your costume by this date, and after that, it’s final.”

This gives them space to be creative, but it also sets a boundary that keeps you from overspending or last-minute scrambling.

Kids feel empowered when they have a choice, and parents feel less stressed when there’s structure.

It’s a win-win! 🎃

If therapy is a new step for you or your child, you might be wondering what happens in the first appointment.

First things first: B-R-E-A-T-H-E. We’re in this with you!

Second, this initial session is called a Therapy Intake Appointment where we learn more about you (and vice-versa!) and listen to your needs, concerns, and goals.

If you’re ready to get started, set up a Matching Call with our office to find the best-fit therapist for you and your family.

You know the moment you swore you’d never say that one thing your parents said . . . and then one day it slipped out?

Parenting is like that: a mix of good intentions, trial and error, and “wow, I didn’t see that one coming!”.

It’s not that you’re doing anything wrong; parenting is hard. What if, instead of drowning, you had someone there to cut through the noise?

Welcome to the Educated Parent podcast where Dr. Leah Clionsky does just that, and more.

New episodes, filled with PARENTING TIPS THAT WORK, drop every Tuesday wherever you get your podcasts! 🎧

While we might want to resist it, our kids gain independence as they get older.

Their desire to spend more time with friends and less time with you is a completely normal part of growing up.

But what about when this “growth spurt” feels too big? What is the difference between independence and isolation?

Independence is healthy, but so is connection. If you are unsure where things stand, book a call on our website. We are happy to help!
