Something new is coming... and very soon!👀

Recently, we've seen a growing need in our community for support and connection for those navigating PANS/PANDAS. Whether you're newly exploring a diagnosis or still finding your footing after one, our hope is to create a space for learning, encouragement, and support.

We're excited to share that we plan to launch our PANS/PANDAS Parent & Caregiver Support Group within the next week or two.

This group will be designed to provide education, practical resources, and connection for caregivers supporting children with PANS/PANDAS.

Interested in learning more or being among the first to receive more details?

We're putting the finishing touches on the group now and look forward to sharing more details very soon. Stay tuned! 💚

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, so can we acknowledge something for a second?

The last 2 weeks of school and first 2 weeks of summer in neurodiverse homes deserve their own awareness ribbon. 😂

Because apparently we needed:
✨ Two weeks of Spirit Week
✨ Three class parties
✨ Four altered schedules
✨ A different red sugary snack given at school every single day
✨ Late nights from class performances
✨ And approximately 14 conversations about whether school is happening tomorrow

Meanwhile parents are surviving on:
☕ Caffeine
🧂 Electrolytes
🙏 Prayers

But in all seriousness—
If your house feels louder…
If emotions are bigger…
If routines are falling apart…
If everyone seems clingier, more exhausted, more reactive, or just “off”…

You’re not alone.

Transitions are hard. Even exciting transitions can be activating. For many families, especially neurodiverse families, routine changes can mean nervous systems are working overtime.

This season doesn’t mean you’re failing.

It may mean your family needs a little more margin, rest, movement, connection, and grace.

Signed,

Drop a 🫠 if your household is currently in end-of-school survival mode.

Purpose is something we talk a lot about in therapy and often it comes with the questions of "who am I" and "who do I want to be," but if we are what we do, we can end up feeling lost. If you are struggling with that question come and see one of our therapist and we will explore what that looks like for you!
