Running on empty? You’re definitely not the only one 😴

Losing just one hour to the time change can throw off your sleep rhythm, energy levels, and focus for days — sometimes even longer depending on the person.

If this week feels harder than usual, that makes sense. The adjustment period is real. Be patient with yourself (and everyone else), do what you can, and prioritize solid rest where possible. Your body will catch up. 💛

Dr. Areej Iftaiha recently hosted a clinician event focused on when psychological testing actually helps, and the conversations were thoughtful, practical, and grounded in real-world clinical work.

This webinar centered on referral decision-making for therapists working with children, teens, and families, especially in cases with uneven or complex presentations.

Three key takeaways from the event:

➝ Psychological assessments are meant to provide clarity and deeper understanding, not simply to assign a diagnosis or label.

➝ Language matters. Reports framed through a neurodiversity-affirming lens communicate something very different than those rooted in a deficit model.

➝ The why behind testing is essential. Clarifying the intention before referral ensures results are meaningful and clinically useful.

We’re looking forward to continuing these conversations and hosting more spaces like this for clinicians.

Follow along for future events, or drop your questions in the comments, we’d love to hear what’s coming up for you.

When a perinatal mental health clinician, a pelvic floor PT, and child psychologist get in the same room, you know we’re going to talk about the stuff parents are actually dealing with.

And we’re going to keep having these conversations. Tag a parent who you think needs to hear this.

We call these “doorknob confessions”—that one more thing you say right as you’re walking out.

Sometimes it’s protective. Sometimes it just slips out. Either way, totally human—and we’ll unpack it when you’re ready 🤍

Our clinicians wrote down the thoughts that show up during sessions on sticky notes and placed them on their bodies. The exercise sparked a powerful sense of common humanity—and served as a clear reminder that we can notice our thoughts without letting them run the session.

We can have a busy mind and still stay present, attuned, and intentional with the families we serve.
