21.01.2022 I'm loving this

19.01.2022 Due to high demand we are running two SociAble Kids groups in October/November from the inner south/eastern suburbs of Adelaide. We are running these for ages 7-9 and 9-11. Our programs focus on social-emotional skills building in an interactive and fun setting. We are NDIS registered and Medicare rebates may apply. We have a couple of spots left and are taking registrations via our website page. You can also contact our program co-ordinator Milla at [email protected] to discuss. https://inspiredpsychology.com.au/sociable-kids-program/

15.01.2022 Amazing news which will increase access to clinically appropriate levels of support for many people. We will be eagerly awaiting details.

14.01.2022 Your partner has a right to feel however they do, even if it’s different from how you feel. Acknowledge that your partner’s perspective is just as valid as you...rs doesn't mean you have to agree, you just need to show respect for their opinions and seek to understand. And true understanding is not possible without empathy. Learn how to improve your ability and willingness to empathize on the Gottman Relationship Blog: https://bit.ly/2GktcAI

14.01.2022 Stonewalling is the last of the Four Horsemen identified by Dr. John Gottman. This happens when one partner is flooding or trying to avoid going there. They wit...hdraw from interaction both verbally and non-verbally, emotionally, and sometimes physically. The good news is that there is an antidote: agree to take a break to practice self-soothing.

12.01.2022 During adolescence, our teens are more likely to pay attention to the positives of a situation over the negatives. This can be a great thing. The courage that c...omes from this will help them try new things, explore their independence, and learn the things they need to learn to be happy, healthy adults. But it can also land them in bucketloads of trouble. Here’s the thing. Our teens don’t want to do the wrong thing and they don’t want to go behind our backs, but they also don’t want to be controlled by us, or have any sense that we might be stifling their way towards independence. The cold truth of it all is that if they want something badly enough, and if they feel as though we are intruding or that we are making arbitrary decisions just because we can, or that we don’t get how important something is to them, they have the will, the smarts and the means to do it with or without or approval. So what do we do? Of course we don’t want to say ‘yes’ to everything, so our job becomes one of influence over control. To keep them as safe as we can, rather than saying ‘no’ (which they might ignore anyway) we want to engage their prefrontal cortex (thinking brain) so they can be more considered in their decision making. Our teens are very capable of making good decisions, but because the rational, logical, thinking prefrontal cortex won’t be fully online until their 20s (closer to 30 in boys), we need to wake it up and bring it to the decision party whenever we can. Do this by first softening the landing: ‘I can see how important this is for you. You really want to be with your friends. I absolutely get that.’ Then, gently bring that thinking brain to the table: ‘It sounds as though there’s so much to love in this for you. I don’t want to get in your way but I need to know you’ve thought about the risks and planned for them. What are some things that could go wrong?’ Then, we really make the prefrontal cortex kick up a gear by engaging its problem solving capacities: ‘What’s the plan if that happens.’ Remember, during adolescence we switch from managers to consultants. Assume a leadership presence, but in a way that is warm, loving, and collaborative.

03.01.2022 YES! Provide POSITIVE power throughout the day! When we give kids age-appropriate control throughout the day, they are less likely to end up thundering in the b...reakfast aisle because you won’t buy the newest chocolate and marshmallow cereal. Use choices to give your child control over his world: Should we read Where the Wild Things Are or Dr. Seuss? Milk or water with lunch? Older children can help plan family activities like what restaurant you should all go to tonight. There are PLENTY of opportunities throughout the day!
