The Holidays are hard for so many and often times we can find ourselves feeling guilty for the feelings we have around this time. Just here to remind you that whatever feeling the holidays bring up for you is okay. You can grieve what is no longer or what’s missing, while also letting your heart fill with peace and expectation. Let yourself experience them all, but let go of the guilt for having them ❤️

Our favorite activity in therapy… identifying our emotions!

It’s hard to manage and cope with our feelings if we don’t first know what we’re feeling. Using charts, images and fun tools like this pillow help teach children (& adults!) how to identify and describe what they’re feeling.

Looking for a parenting philosophy that balances compassion and accountability? We will explore what keeps us stuck in parenting patterns we’re trying to kick, as well as why kids misbehave. You’ll learn practical tools for dealing with misbehavior, and a strategy for discipline that goes deeper than behavior modification.

Join us October 6th at 6pm for a Parenting Workshop led by our Parent Coach and Counselor, Julia! Register using the QR code or via our website www.theoakscounselinggroup.com

We can’t wait to learn with you!
