Big Feelings Don't Show Up Quietly
They show up when screen time ends.
When socks don't match.
When it's time to leave, switch tasks, or do

That's the skill we work on.

parents see at home and what kids are actually struggling with.
No long testing sessions.
No child sitting at a table answering questions.
Just real insight into how the brain manages daily life.
Because "they're smart, but..." usually means something important is being missed.

You're noticing patterns and wondering what's underneath them. .
You want to understand yur child. Not change who they are. You're open to support, even if you're not sure what kind yet.
you want tools that fit your child, not generic advice. and you'd like a calm. thoughtful next step, not a rush to label or fix.
Most parents don't arrive here with a clear answer. They land here with questions.
Something feels harder than it should. Big reactions. Big Worries. Big Emotions. A child who is bright, funny, and struggling in ways that don't quite add up yet.
Not knowing exactly what is going on doesn't mean you're behind. It just means you're paying attention.
