Worried your kids are going to be bored this summer? We asked our team member Delaine Bennett to provide some suggestions to you! Recent research suggests that boredom can boost creativity, as it leads to daydreaming and imaginative play, which helps develop creative thinking and problem-solving skills. It also enhances self-regulation, teaching kids to manage their time and resources better, and it stimulates a desire for new experiences, helping kids discover new interests and fostering personal growth. So, this summer, don’t worry if your child says they’re bored; it’s a natural and beneficial part of their development! #neurodiversity #calgarytherapist #albertatherapist #familytherapist #familypsychology #adhdbrain #albertapsychologist #albertatherapy #mentalhealthmatters #autism #ADHD #communication #socialskills #selfcare #mentalhealth #familytherapy #cognitivebehaviortherapy #depressionhelp #youareenough #ocd #counseling #anxiety

"Thoughts trigger emotions, even if they are not true or the worry is not likely to happen. Teach your child to spend time observing their thoughts - or writing them down - like an interested bystander watching clouds passing. The idea that your child is an observer of what's going on inside their brain is much more helpful than letting thoughts "happen" to them, allowing the thought to trigger worried feelings." - DR LUCY RUSSELL #schoolanxiety #anxiety #backtoschool #school #anxietyrelief #mentalhealth #anxietysupport #introvert #introvertproblems #introvertlife #parenting #introvertedant #separationanxiety #introvert #introverted #schoolrefusal #therapy #psychotherapy #onlinetherapy. #adhd #autism

Perhaps it's rejection sensitivity dysphoria 🙃 Do you feel criticised, put down, or abandoned by others' words and actions disproportionate to the situation? Or, do you experience a sudden internal emotional shift, even if the behaviour was intended as neutral or positive? It's tough. It's also exhausting. To perceive loss of approval, love or respect takes a toll, and often ADHDers become people pleasers or they stop trying 😔 It's worth opening up and exploring with a trained professional if you're experiencing this and combating it with giving up some of your authentic self. #adhd #adhdcoaching #rsd #rejectionsensitivedysphoria #counsellor
