Contrary to the medical model of prescribing antibiotics or stitching up a wound, mental health is not simply about "fixing" patients. Therapists can feel pressure from parents or school staff to improve a child’s emotional or behavioral functioning as quickly as possible, but mental health is both a science and an art. It also takes trust and time. In today’s episode, Dr. Matt Zakreski and I talk about how structured approaches and time frames just don’t fit with the flexibility needed when working with neurodivergent kid and teens. We discuss: 💪Flexing the structure, timing, and modality of therapy based on a kid’s skill development 💭What to expect as parents when your child or teen is in therapy 🌈How we can empower our kids to take ownership of their mental health journey. Tune in to find out why it's not one size fits all! https://lnkd.in/gJig7V6p Earfluence Matthew Zakreski #neurodivergent #neurodiversity #neurodivergentkids #parentingtips #parentingforconnection #parentingautism #adhdparenting #parentingadhd #autismmom #autismfamily #autismfamilies #teachingkids #elementaryteacher #kindergartenteacher #firstgradeteacher #preschoolteacher #schoolpsych #neurodiverseclassroom
