by | Jul 25, 2022 | Podcast

When it comes to working through emotions, it can be hard on children to understand and regulate their feelings during the divorce process. Pediatric Occupational Therapist Linda Matthews joins the podcast to discuss how parents can help their children during divorce and when making the transition between homes.

Linda explains that children only need one parent who is promoting a positive and safe space for them when going from one house to another. We dive into teaching your children healthy boundaries, internal regulation of emotions, and much more.
