This is educational support, not therapy.

Not mental health treatment

The Big Feelings Toolkit offers general educational information, parenting ideas, and reflective prompts. It is not mental health treatment, therapy, counseling, or medical advice. Using this app does not create a therapist-client or doctor-patient relationship between you and Laura Van Camp, Connected First, or anyone affiliated with this app.

Not a replacement for professional help

If you or your child are in crisis, experiencing abuse, having thoughts of self-harm, or need immediate mental health support, please contact emergency services or a licensed professional in your area. Do not rely on this app in an emergency.

• Emergency: call 911 (or your local emergency number)
• Crisis Text Line: text HOME to 741741
• 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: call or text 988

About the AI coach

"Ask Laura AI" is a conversational tool built on general-purpose AI. While it is designed to reflect attachment-informed, neuroscience-aware, and faith-rooted parenting principles, it cannot assess your unique family, diagnose conditions, or provide personalized clinical recommendations. It is not Laura Van Camp responding in real time.

Spiritual encouragement, not pastoral counseling

Bible verses and faith-based reflections are offered as spiritual encouragement. They are not a substitute for pastoral counseling, spiritual direction, or professional mental health care.

Use at your own discretion

Every family is different. Apply any ideas here with your own judgment and, when needed, the guidance of a qualified professional in your local area. We do not guarantee specific outcomes.
