I was honored to represent Anchor Children and Family Counseling, Inc. at this year's California Head Start Association Parent and Family Engagement Conference in Orange County this week with Dr. Melissa Springstead (in spirit!). I love presenting at this conference because it is the perfect place for me to integrate so many of my passions in Marriage and Family Therapy, Mindfulness, Infant and Preschool Mental Health, and Early Childhood Education! This year we presented on "Mindful Self-Care for Teachers, Staff, Parents, and Families of Young Children" and it was amazing to see the participants transition from stressed to relaxed after a series of mindfulness experientials! Hoping to inspire many more with future collaborations with local and national Head Start programs :)
