GROWING MINDS

Education, coaching, and support for childhood challenges

Growing Minds is a learning environment created by two psychologists and friends with a passion for working with children, adolescents, and their families. In this space, we will share our knowledge to help coach families and educators in ways to support children to be as successful as possible.

Growing Minds was created to help navigate through the constant change that occurs in developing brains as knowledge and experience expands through adolescence. Each child’s specific needs are different, and their transition through this growth can be different depending on their personalities, interests, and abilities.

At Growing Minds, we provide helpful information and tools to build success at home and school to help them to overcome each new challenge as their minds grow. On our site, you’ll find videos, articles, blogs, and courses geared toward specific challenges and areas of need based on your child’s background. Based on experiences we’ve accumulated from the clinical work we’ve done directly with children and their families, we have been able to target some of the most commonly faced issues, and have gathered some of the most effective resources and tools to share with you. We hope you find this information helpful. If there are topics or questions that you don’t see addressed, please contact us.

The information provided is for general education purposes only and is not a substitute for medical diagnosis, advice, or treatment. This should not be used in place of advice from your child’s physician, psychologist or other qualified healthcare provider.
