Teens aren’t just being teens when they stay up later at night; their bodies are actually wired that way. 🌙✨
During adolescence, their circadian rhythm naturally shifts, making it harder for them to fall asleep early and wake up refreshed, which isn't so great for school. While we can’t change biology, we can support healthier sleep habits.

Here are some teen-friendly strategies to help reset and regulate sleep:

🛏️ Start with a relaxing bedtime routine. Calm activities help the brain wind down.
☕ Limit caffeine and keep dinners light. Heavy meals and late-day caffeine can delay sleep even more.
🏃 Get daytime exercise. Movement boosts sleep quality.
⏰ Stick to a consistent sleep schedule (even on weekends!) Stability strengthens the sleep-wake cycle.
☀️ Maximize daytime light + minimize evening light. Bright morning light helps keep the body wake up, and dimmer evening lights signal that it’s time to rest.

These small, consistent changes can lead to big improvements in mood, focus, and energy for your teen’s brain. 💛

I’m feeling grateful for the opportunity to connect with Phuong Nguyen, LCSW-R, a warm and friendly therapist who supports adults and couples. Since I focus on therapy and consultation for children, adolescents, parents, and families, together Phuong and I can support Individuals across all stages of life. 💛

Phuong and I run our own independent private practices, but we are both affiliated with , which means that we are privileged to work in a beautiful space with like-minded clinicians who value mind–body wellness and whole-person care.

If you or someone you love is looking for mental health support—from childhood through adulthood—we would be honored to help. Please visit Dr. Sharon Huang’s (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/sharon-huang-potomac-md/1459659) and Ms. Phuong Nguyen’s (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/phuong-nguyen-potomac-md/94008) Psychology Today profiles for more information. 🌿✨

Here’s a gentle reminder for anyone feeling stressed or overwhelmed:

You can control:
✅Your actions
✅Your boundaries
✅How you respond
✅How you care for your mind and body
✅What you choose to focus on

You cannot control:
❎How others behave
❎How others feel
❎How others respond
❎Unexpected events
❎What others think

When we shift our focus toward the things that we can actually control, life begins to feel a little lighter. We spend less energy attempting to manage everything around us, and more energy taking care of ourselves, making choices we feel proud of, and creating the kind of days we want to live.

✨ Save this reminder for later and share it with someone who might need it today.

🧠 Feeling stressed or overwhelmed lately?

Try the “5-4-3-2-1” grounding exercise:

Name
👀5 things you can see
✋4 things you can touch
👂3 things you can hear
👃2 things you can smell
👅1 thing you can taste

This grounding exercise brings your attention to the present moment, helping your brain shift away from your worries and calm your nervous system. Many of my clients find this exercise incredibly helpful. 🌟

🌟 What Makes Us Different 🌟

Finding the right therapist for yourself or for your child/adolescent can feel overwhelming. Here’s what sets our practice apart:

1️⃣ Individualized, Strength-Based Care
No one-size-fits-all therapy here! We integrate evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, play therapy, and mindfulness to create a plan that matches your or your child or adolescent's unique strengths, needs, and personality. 💪🌈

2️⃣ Expertise in Education
We understand how emotions, learning, and school life overlap. With an extensive background in both education and mental health, we help children and adolescents build the skills they need to thrive, both in therapy and in the classroom.📚

3️⃣ Collaborative Approach
We believe that real growth occurs when everyone collaborates. 💬✨ That’s why we work closely with parents, school staff, and/or other providers to ensure consistent support across all settings.

💛 Every person's journey is unique, and we’re here to walk beside you every step of the way.

I’m excited to be featured on the Montgomery County Public Schools’ website for National School Psychology Week!

This week we celebrate National School Psychology Week, a time to recognize the vital role that school psychologists play in supporting students’ learning, behavior, mental health, and growth.

I’m proud to be a Nationally Certified School Psychologist (NCSP), and my background in education and experience in schools guide my clinical work today. I know how to bridge the gap between the classroom and the therapy room, by empowering children, adolescents, and families with strategies that work both in daily life and at school. 💙

Understanding the whole child—including their learning, behavior, relationships, and emotional world—is at the heart of what I do.

Happy Halloween from Harmony Psychological Services! 👻

Wishing everyone a day full of laughter, imagination, and spooky fun. Whether you and your child/teen are wearing costumes, going trick-or-treating, going to a party, handing out candy, or watching scary movies at home, stay safe and have fun! 🧡

✨ Halloween Tip:
Bring a flashlight or glow stick while trick-or-treating and make sure your child/teen stays with a group for safety.🌟

I tried something new today: rock climbing! 🧗‍♀️

Standing at the bottom of the wall, I felt simultaneously intimidated (especially given my fear of heights) and excited, and also that feeling of uncertainty that so many of us (kids and adults alike) have when we are about to try something new. But that’s when growth happens, when we step outside our comfort zones.

I also had to trust my partner—the lovely and kind Debra Shin —who was my patient teacher and guide, keeping me safe as I ascended and descended. Growth doesn’t always happen alone: sometimes you need to lean on someone you trust while you find your footing.

Every time we take a healthy risk, we are teaching our brains that we can do hard things, manage fear and uncertainty, and persevere even when it feels challenging. These are the same skills we work on in therapy…taking risks, learning, and growing with every step.🌿

✨ What’s something new that you’ve tried lately, or something that you’ve been wanting to try but haven’t yet? I’d love to hear in the comments below!

A little photo dump from my afternoon at Glenstone 🖼️

Between caring for kids, students, patients, or clients, it’s easy to forget that you need to care for yourself.

Last weekend, I spent a few peaceful hours at the Glenstone museum. Just me, art, and nature. No checklist. No timeline. Just space to slow down, explore, and immerse myself in a special place—my own therapy. I ran into a friend who was doing the same; we had a shared understanding about the importance of self-care.

Sometimes we believe that rest is a reward for completing our work, when in reality, it is what allows us to keep showing up with clarity and compassion for those we help.

So this week, take a moment. Walk outside. Look at something beautiful.

You deserve the same care that you provide everyone else. 💛

One of my young clients created this note for me, and it truly touched me. Not only was it a heartfelt message, but she took great care in ensuring that her letters were in rainbow order, expressing her vibrant personality. 🌈

Goodbyes in therapy can be difficult, especially with kids who’ve grown, learned, and opened up so much. I’m always inspired by the curiosity, energy, humor, and honesty that they bring into the room. 💛

One of the most meaningful parts of therapy is building safe and trusting relationships. Even when our work together pauses or ends, I hope that my clients will carry with them the tools, confidence, and connection that we built together.
