Monday Mar 04, 2019
Monday Mar 04, 2019
If you want to be a school psychologist or have ever wondered what a school psychologist does, then this episode is for you! School psychologists are collaborators, advocates, leaders, and team players! They are in charge of assessing school aged children and identifying their needs for success in school. They work with other clinicians like Occupational and Speech therapists as well as mental health therapists and school counselors! In this episode we talk diagnosis, IEP's, and the many factors influencing student struggles and successes.

A special thank-you to Myra Garcia, LCSW. She is a therapist at the El Paso Child Guidance Center (where I work as well). She supervises and consults with clinicians in our agency. She has experience doing therapy in New York and El Paso. She specializes in trauma work and is certified in Child Parent Psychotherapy. She also teaches graduate social work students at NMSU. Her passion for social work and therapy shines through in her excellent work at our agency and in her advocacy for others.
In two weeks, our episode will feature two Licensed Marriage and Family Therapy Associates (LMFT-As) who will talk about their journeys in becoming therapists. They will speak specifically about their experiences in grad school, training, and how they work with clients. If you are interested in working with families and couples, that episode will be for you!

Rewards, punishment, and consequences can be hard to keep track of while parenting older kids. Not anymore! With this step-by-step audio guide, you can have a functioning "token economy" in as little as 30 minutes!

This can be a structured and organized way to discipline children and keep track of rewards. Have you ever thought to yourself..."man my kids are spoiled!"...or "I don't want them to think they don't have to work for what they have!"
This is the episode for you! Get your calendars, notebooks, and clear jars ready...we are going to tackle HOW TO CREATE A DISCIPLINE PLAN for older kids!

This episode is about parenting young children. The greatest joy and the greatest responsibility in this life. If you interact with children or have your own, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT EPISODE. I list out four different parenting styles (survey style) so you can identify your own. Also I talk about TANTRUMS (cue Jaws music). I cover the behavioral science behind ignoring, attention, and why kids tantrums get worse.
