As both a child mental health therapist and a speech-language pathologist, one of the most common concerns I hear from parents is:

“My child is so bright, but they can’t seem to manage their time, stay organized, or follow through on anything.”

If that sounds familiar, your child may be struggling with executive functioning – and that’s something we specialize in supporting here at Be a Problem Solver Services.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month—a time to reflect on how we care for our minds, our families, and ourselves. Mental health doesn’t just affect one age group or diagnosis—it impacts the whole family system. That’s why this month, we’re focusing on the emotional health of children, teens, young adults, and parents, with special attention to neurodiversity and the often-unspoken toll that caregiving can take.

As April arrives, so does National Autism Awareness Month—a time dedicated to celebrating and understanding the diverse experiences of individuals on the Autism Spectrum. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is not a one-size-fits-all condition; rather, it encompasses a wide range of traits and characteristics unique to each individual. This April, let’s delve into the essence of autism, focusing on raising awareness and fostering inclusivity.
