As a Play Therapist I am always learning new techniques and strategies for calming and regulation in some of the most unexpected places.
Yup - sometimes it comes from Facebook, observations of families in public, or my own personal experiences. Other times these new techniques and strategies come from unrelated to therapy books or podcasts. Really - anywhere!

Anxiety can get out of control pretty fast. Kind of like weeds in the garden that seem to grow 5 feet tall in one afternoon. And just like weeds they can shade out and suck the nutrients for the good things that we are trying to grow.

Laughter. And that says a lot coming from a therapist that works with high levels of trauma, attachment difficulties, and significant dysregulation. |
