The holiday season is often filled with excitement, celebration, and family traditions. However, for children and families navigating ADHD, anxiety, or emotional regulation challenges, the holidays can also bring increased stress, sensory overload, disrupted routines, and heightened expectations.
From busy gatherings and changes in sleep schedules to social pressures and emotional meltdowns, the season can quickly become overwhelming.
This engaging workshop will help parents and caregivers understand why the holidays can be particularly challenging for children with ADHD and anxiety, while providing realistic strategies to create a calmer, more connected holiday experience.
Participants will learn how to anticipate common holiday stressors, manage transitions, support sensory and emotional needs, set healthy boundaries, and maintain flexibility without sacrificing meaningful family traditions.
The session will emphasize practical tools that families can implement immediately, helping shift the focus away from perfection and toward connection, understanding, and emotional well-being.
