      Does this sound familiar? Summer sneaks up on you Does this sound familiar? Summer sneaks up on you or your child, there is talk about a job or internship or trips or camp but at the end of the day, nothing materializes. Each day is a battle to get them out of bed, to move their body, and in the end, summer is spent staring into a screen. If your adolescent or young adult is struggling with structure for this summer, we are excited to announce our Summer Structure Lab! A weekly group that meets to discuss structure options, create a plan for the summer and provide accountability week to week. This is a great oppourtunity for the parents to be able to step out of the role of enforcer and allow adolescents and young adults to take charge, with appropriate support for success. If your child needs help learning appropriate life skills for college, needs help brainstorming ideas, or just accountability around action steps, thats what this group is for! Check out our latest blog post on the impact of structure on mental health and to learn more about our summer lab

      Starting off this year by reading UnSelfie by Dr. Starting off this year by reading UnSelfie by Dr. Michele Borba. She addresses why empathetic kids succeed in our “All-About-Me” world.
