Dealing With Acts of Aggression from Your Child
Allison Bates, MS, LAPC |
| As caregivers, it often genuinely hurts us when our child is upset, and our instinct is to do or give them whatever they want to help them calm down. Unfortunately, this often enforces to the child that throwing the tantrum or getting angry will get them what they want, thus causing the problems to happen more often and severe. |

Grounding: Being Rooted in the Now
Brittany Glaser, MA, MDiv, LPC |
| When working with clients, I sometimes notice how much of our conversations tend to gravitate toward things that have happened in the past or things that could happen in the future. We process what has been and how much we wish it were not. We fear about what could be and the catastrophe that could overwhelm us. |
