Shame, Blame and Narcissism

Shame versus Guilt Do you know the difference between shame and guilt? Does your child or teen? It’s really important to distinguish the difference. Shame is toxic and eats

A few encouraging things in the last few days that I thought I’d share. Yesterday, our son managed to enter a men’s washroom at the beach by himself, which is the first time he has done so. He was initially very reluctant, but we used the language you’ve taught him. Yay! Tonight we talked about going to school tomorrow to practice using and flushing the toilets there, armed with several of the strategies you have taught him. His enthusiasm about the fact that he could see the value of something you taught him seems so important – not only does it show his receptiveness but it shows me that he feels ‘helpable’. This is a big change from before when he stated clearly that he didn’t think anyone could help him with his fears.

Sharon, you really helped us when we were all trying our best but not understanding how to help ourselves or what was really happening with our son’s anxiety. I have never been so relieved and thankful for the support and help you gave to our son, and to our family. We learned so much through that and will maintain our awareness and personal growth. We will think of you often and look forward to keeping in touch through your weekly emails and blog, too.

Our 11-year-old son attended Sharon’s anxiety management group. The group sessions helped him to understand how his brain works and develop positive self-talk, which has been instrumental in helping my son cope with a new school, and his sensitivity in social situations. We have seen an amazing turn-around in our son – Sharon’s counsel, insight, and ability to connect with him has been key to his success.
