Support for Siblings
Coping Tools
When one child is having challenges in the home, the entire family system is impacted. Often, siblings can feel forgotten, alone, left out, or guilty. It is important for them to have support in adjusting to their new family system. I work with my clients to establish and strengthen their coping tools.
Distress Tolerence
Siblings in this position can experience a range of emotions including anxiety, fear, sadness, and confusion. The stress in the home can cause distress. Together we will work to build distress tolerance by processing these feelings and learning new ways to cope.
Autonomy
It is important for a child or teen to establish autonomy. Together we will work to build confidence, self-esteem, and a greater sense of self.
