Seeing a huge uptick in parent requests for SpEd due to soc-emo concerns since returning to school in person. #SchoolPsychs are you seeing this at your sites too?

Cannot tell you how often I see this. Sleep study should always be conducted if an ADHD diagnosis is being considered. Sleep hygiene issues can also manifest as ADHD symptoms.

Any other #schoolpsychs have a full-on cathartic cry leaving campus after your last day of the school year? WHAT A YEAR.

There’s hope in asking for help. Check out the Getting Better Together campaign from @ChildMindInst featuring personal testimonials from celebrities & kids to fight shame & stigma & show how we can all cope w/ stress, isolation, & mental health challenges: https://t.co/UAt98L3zJE

Happy mental health awareness month!

But awareness is not the end goal. Structural change is -- toward making treatment more accessible, more effective, and less harmful. Toward restoring agency and trust to people seeking help.

Awareness is Step 0. We've got long way to go.

Whew...

Just imagine if Black folks could focus on healing. Like, we didn’t have to fight for justice or hold our breath when we’re murdered on video and then denied justice..

What if justice wasn’t so elusive for Black folks?

What if we could focus on JOY and HEALING? 🙏🏾

Any other #schoolpsych friends on campus on a Sunday afternoon cranking out psych reports? Tis the season.

[High School Psychologist @SchoolPsych831]

Students returned to our campus in person yesterday for the first time in over a year. I don't know about you, but I am PUMPED. There's a very bright light at the end of this long tunnel.
