Compassion Corner Counseling

I was asked to give one example... and somehow ended up giving about ten. 😂

In my defense, I spent years working almost exclusively with children and families before opening my private practice, so talking about behavior management comes pretty naturally to me.

While my caseload these days includes more adults, couples, and relationship work, I still love working with children and families and would be thrilled to have more kids on my caseload.

One of the most important things I teach parents is that behavior is communication. When a child is struggling emotionally, it often shows up through changes in behavior before they have the words to explain what they're feeling.

Some examples to watch for include:
✨ Talking significantly more or less than usual
✨ Eating significantly more or less than usual
✨ Spending much more or much less time with friends
✨ Major changes in grades or school performance
✨ Sudden shifts in mood, energy, or behavior

These changes don't automatically mean something is wrong, but they can be clues that your child is navigating an emotional experience and may need additional support.

If you're looking for support understanding your child's behavior, improving communication, or navigating family challenges, I'd be happy to help. 💜

Special thanks to for inviting me to be part of this conversation and recording this clip. 🙏🏽✨️

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of participating in a live virtual speaking engagement for National Smile Day. The prompt was simple: How do you bring joy and happiness into the world?

With only a few minutes to speak, I found myself reflecting on a childhood memory and an important lesson it taught me about happiness, values, and feeling truly alive.

One of my favorite parts of speaking is creating moments of reflection and connection, even in a virtual setting. Whether I'm facilitating a workshop, leading a discussion, or speaking to a group, my goal is to help people reconnect with themselves, each other, and the things that matter most. 💜

You may notice that this recording only shows me on screen. Due to some technical issues with the event recording layout, portions of the host's introduction and closing remarks didn't translate well to the recording, so I've shared the speaking portion here.

A huge thank you to .smiley for welcoming me to speak and for creating a space dedicated to positivity, encouragement, and connection. 😊

If your organization, business, conference, or community group is looking for an engaging speaker or facilitator on topics such as communication, emotional intelligence, workplace well-being, connection, belonging, or personal growth, I'd love to connect! 😊
