    Episode 159:  Support for Stressed Out Families, with Debbie Fear of Wild Psychology If you are a parent or caregiver and feel like you're drowning in stress, you're not alone. Many of us feel like we are struggling to stay afloat amid a torrent of midlife changes and challenges. We're trying to homeschool and tackle our to-do list while also navigating relationship stress, child-related stress, and work stress.

Debbie has over two decades of experience as a psychologist and she's also mum to two neurodivergent children. Now, Debbie provides online coaching, counseling & psychotherapy for big-hearted people who want to make a difference through her website, Wild Psychology.
