Holding Both: An Invitation to Feeling All of Your Feelings During the ‘Happiest Time of the Year’

The holidays can bring joy and disappointment in the same afternoon. Maybe you’re excited to make new memories with your family, then frustrated when a tradition goes sideways or a gift you put real thought into barely gets a reaction. There’s room for both feelings.

Join Janelle McCarthy, LCPC, LPC, RPT, and Catarina Chiaramonte, clinical intern at Playful Therapy Connections, for November’s Coffee & Connections with Sixx Cool Moms. Together, they’ll explore ways for caregivers to practice genuine gratitude while making room for holiday stress, disappointment, and other feelings that can be hard to sit with.

This free virtual caregiver chat takes place on Tuesday, November 17, from noon to 12:30 p.m. Eastern on Google Meet. RSVP to get the meeting link on your confirmation screen.
