Wishing students, families, and educators a happy & healthy school year! 💙

As everyone settles back into school routines, remember that transitions can take time. Consistent sleep and morning routines, open conversations about how school is going, and a little extra patience can go a long way during the first few weeks.

For families managing ADHD, developmental differences, anxiety, or other behavioral concerns, this is also a great time to check in on school supports, medications, and any changes you’re noticing at home or in the classroom.

Here’s to a wonderful school year of learning & growing!

Gentle encouragement for every parent: you don’t have to get it right all the time.

Grace isn’t just something we give our children — it’s something we should give ourselves, too!

Parenting inevitably comes with challenging moments. Jennie shares a reminder that it’s okay to not know exactly what to do in the moment, take a step back to regulate your own emotions, then try again. 💙

Our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all deeply connected.

Using the foundations of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Caitlin shares a simple strategy that encourages positive self-talk and can help children, teens, and adults build healthier thought patterns over time.

Watch until the end for a practical tip you can start using at home today! 💙

A thank you message from our founder & owner, Caitlin Rissler, as we celebrate 10 years of Music City Peds:

“Hard to believe Music City Peds started 10 years ago!

I’m grateful for everyone who has been involved in supporting this dream of mine. Mentors, professional colleagues, amazing staff, clients and their families, my own family, friends who have rooted me on. Thank you!

Some of our clients have grown up with us. Some have aged out of our practice at 23yo…we miss you and wish the best for you! To our current clients, we are honored to be able to work with you…you add so much depth, fun, and beauty to our days. Prospective clients, we love what we do and are here when you need us!

It’s a special gift to do what we do. We are invited to participate in some of the most intimate aspects of people’s lives. We grieve losses, problem-solve challenges, celebrate moments, and ultimately, we strive to help our clients to experience meaningful and fulfilling lives. Thank you for allowing us to be part of it!”
