As parents, we put so much of ourselves into our kids. Sometimes– especially this year– this can leave us feeling depleted and brittle. In turn, this keeps us from being the parents we aspire to be. How can we break this cycle?
Therapist Dr. Sam Jeannite of Small Brooklyn Psychology addressed these concerns with evidence-based strategies for coping with stress, managing frustration, and making time for our own self-care. Dr. Mandi White-Ajmani moderated a question-and-answer session with questions from participants at the end of the talk.
