What does resilience mean?  What are the skills related to being resilient?  and how can you support your child in developing resilience?

This week's guest is  Dr. Mortimer, a Licensed Psychologist, who is currently practicing in Fort Worth, Texas. She has prior experience working within school districts and the hospital setting. Dr. Mortimer has been married for 15 years and has 2 children, ages 7 and 9. Her role in public school and private practice settings have given her opportunities to work with children and young adults from 2-25 for evaluations to determine diagnosis, counseling, and behavioral support. The combination of clinical experience and her personal parenting journey has given her insight into a wide variety of common childhood experiences and challenges. 

Join our talk about resilience where  Dr. Mortimer shares research-based strategies to make your home a place where you find true enjoyment and raise resilient kids!

Does slamming doors sound familiar to you? Is your child being extremely emotional? Losing interest in things that previously gave your child joy? and staying “forever” in the room?           So your child is no longer a kid but a Preteen or even a TEENAGER!

The last guest of this season is psychologist, Lior Yaniv Raz,  who works in a private clinic and in a children and youth orphanage. Lior specializes in helping teenagers dealing with anxiety, depression, and mood disorders.

In this episode Lior describes (and reminds us :-) how does it feel to be a teenager? How can you recognize that your children are entering that stage and why it’s important for a child (and grownups) to take responsibility for their emotions? and how can you support your preteen?
