  • Ep. 81- Grieving as a Child: Sibling Loss

    Ep. 81- Grieving as a Child: Sibling Loss
    Mar 21 2024
    Each child grieves differently, and there is no right or wrong way or length of time to grieve. Grief can be loud, quiet, public, private and everything in between. It is important to listen and take cues from the child, rather than assume you know what that child needs. In this episode, we'll explore the various ways in which children express their grief, the common reactions they may exhibit, and how parents and other family members can best support them through this challenging time.

    Ep. 80- Tourette Syndrome
    Mar 12 2024
    Imagine a world where your body and voice seem to have a mind of their own. Every movement, every sound, like a song that keeps changing unexpectedly. This is what it's like for people with Tourette syndrome. Tourette syndrome is a complicated brain condition. People with Tourette syndrome often have body movements and sounds they can't control. These movements and sounds are called tics. Many people think this condition only involves saying bad words or doing strange things, but that's not true. This condition covers a wide range of different tics, like movements and sounds, and each person's Tourette syndrome is different.

  • Ep. 79- Selective Mutism

    Ep. 79- Selective Mutism
    Mar 3 2024
    Selective mutism is a condition in which a child is unable to speak in certain situations, despite being fully capable of speech in others. According to DSM-5, selective mutism is often accompanied by social anxiety disorder, separation anxiety disorder, phobias, and situational oppositional behaviors are also common. For example, a child may be unable to speak at school and can communicate without difficulty at home. It’s called selective mutism because a child is only mute in select situations. Imagine being a child entering a classroom full of children, feeling the urge to speak but unable to utter a single word. Or imagine a grown-up at work who really wants to join in the talk but feels paralyzed by the inability to speak up. This is the reality for individuals with Selective mutism.
