THERAPIST TIP TUESDAY 🤍

“Calm down.”

I think most of us have said it at some point when our child is overwhelmed…I know I have.

But when a child is already experiencing a big emotion, simply telling them to calm down doesn’t necessarily give them the tools to actually do it.

Instead, we can try:

“I’m here.”
“Let’s take a minute together.”
“Tell me what you need when you’re ready.”

Sometimes our children need to borrow our calm before they can find their own.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t boundaries or that every behaviour is okay. It simply means helping them regulate first can make it much easier to talk about what happened afterwards.

Save this for one of those big-feeling moments. 🤍

We often say “There’s nothing to worry about” because we’re trying to reassure.

But to an anxious child, the worry can feel very real.

Acknowledging that feeling doesn’t make the anxiety bigger.

It tells them:

“I see you. I hear you. You’re not dealing with this alone.”

Then we can help them work through what comes next. 🤍

MYTH MONDAY 🤍

“Confident children don’t struggle with anxiety.”

Anxiety doesn’t have one particular look.

A child can be outgoing, confident, funny and achieving… while still carrying worries that nobody else can see.

It’s another reminder that what we see on the outside doesn’t always tell us what’s happening underneath🤍

Keep checking in, even when everything appears okay.
