Why Does Being in Therapy Ourselves Help Our Children?

Our children cannot regulate their emotions. This is because the rational parts of their brain used for problem solving are not fully developed until they are 25 years old.

Self Awareness, Self Care & Parenting

They need to attach to their caregiver in order to develop, survive and learn to be independent. If we, as adults, are dysregulated, have unresolves issues, are stressed or depressed, it may be more difficult for us to meet the needs of our children.

So, when we help ourselves access therapy we are also helping our children.

Therapy is helpful on so many levels!
