Hi all! I hope the recent Portland sunshine has been helping you feel a bit better in this past month. At The Real Work, we know a lot of support is needed for families right now, even if it just comes from knowing we are here for you and we want to continue to be a safe and welcoming space for you especially when times are tough! Let's get to it:
​

Congratulations to Bonnie on a well-deserved certification!

Bonnie Davey, LPC just received her certification in Child-Centered Play Therapy! In addition to her licensure, this certification means Bonnie completed an incredible amount of training in the niche of working with young kids from a child-centered and play-based model! Yes! Connect with Bonnie

Our latest Goal: Provide Free Q&As to local Preschools and Early Childhood Providers 😍

A few of our Play Therapists have created an offering that we hope to get out to our community! Please let us know if you know of anyone who would like to have us out to talk about mental health in early childhood, play-based care, regulation, and more! ❤️

We are connecting with our local child-centered businesses because we know that the early years at school are full of big emotions, rapid development, and sometimes, tricky challenges. We’d love to support staff, families, and kids during this important stage.

Reply to this email if you have a place you'd like us to come do a Q&A at!
