"I feel like I'm losing brain cells."
So many bright kids come into the therapy office and say things like this.
Why do some smart, creative, and talented kids doubt their abilities and avoid asking for help?
Why do some kids avoid trying new things or become stressed when they make mistakes?
Why do so many feel like they are a burden on their families and friends who love them?
Our older kids may struggle with high stress from advanced schoolwork or burn out from boredom and disinterest.
Our younger kids may be discouraged, misunderstood, and labeled by those who want to support them but don't know how.
Some kids can even become physically sick because of stress and have thoughts about harming themselves.
Our gifted, creative, and high-performing kids have needs that many people do not understand.
When my son was placed in advanced programs, I was determined to make sure that he knew that he was wonderfully made and that there was nothing that he ever needed to do to prove this.
All gifted, creative, and high-performing kids should know that they are wonderfully made and that there is nothing that they need to do to prove this.
Our therapy is specialized to help bright and talented kids deal with their common stressors, high stress, sensitivity, perfectionism, social relationships, and high expectations from others.
Many bright and creative kids now come to this practice to rediscover their happiness and confidence!
