Psyched2Parent turns brain science into tiny wins for parents raising big-feeling, strong-willed, big-hearted, big-brained kids, especially the ones who hold it together at school and unravel at home.
I'm Dr. Amy Patenaude, a school psychologist, parent coach, and your school psych in your pocket. Each week, I help you decode what's underneath the behavior, understand your child's brain and nervous system, and figure out what to do next at home and at school.
You'll get parent-friendly explanations, tiny wins you can actually use, scripts for hard moments, and practical guidance for navigating school supports like IEPs, 504 plans, evaluations, and accommodations. We talk about meltdowns, executive function, anxiety, perfectionism, transitions, screen-time conflict, learning differences, and the messy middle of raising kids who feel deeply and need support that actually fits.
The goal is not perfection. The goal is more clarity, more connection, fewer power struggles, and a steadier path forward, one tiny win at a time.
