Enough is enough. . . It's time to reduce the shame and stigma around having ADHD and being a psychotherapist. There are a lot of us out there - mental health therapists who have ADHD. We often struggle with paperwork when others can seemingly just get it done. Let's connect! I'm Abi and I'm starting a monthly online consultation group for clinicians with ADHD.

Yoga Calm for Pre-Teen/Teen Girls: Strong Heart, Mind & Body

Originally posted on Jun 09, 2018

Imagine a world where our young girls are taught to celebrate and deeply cherish who they are. A world that protects them from messages from the media, and teaches them that self worth is not dependent on external standards. This six to eight week program teaches girls to approach health in body, mind and heart from a place of self-respect. Yoga Calm teaches deep self esteem, develops skills to navigate social and emotional pressures, and celebrates diversity and the inner spirit.

Mindfully Master the Summer Blues- A Group for Tweens

Originally posted on May 30, 2018

Sometimes summer doesn’t feel very fun or relaxing. Expectations are often high but boredom can set in and without the structure of school, stress can increase in preteens and teens. Anxiety and depression can increase, knowing that school will start again, making it hard to relax and enjoy the moment. This group will help your child learn emotion management skills by practicing mindfulness and learning more effective ways to communicate their feelings.
