Today I spoke with Emille Refvem, a school psychologist, who in a former life was licensed professional counselor working with youth in state custody. She brings insight and wisdom in how assessing needs also ties into trauma, environment, and how we can resource our caregivers. She allows me to briefly wax poetic when I was inspired by what she brought to the table. We learn that there's no word for anxiety or autism in certain languages and how that framing issue can close off solutions.
