Welcome to Learn & Burn: Revolutionizing Children's Mental Health Education 

Founded by child psychologists Dr. Shannon McHugh and Dr. Jesi Sasaki, Learn & Burn is on a mission to transform traditional mental health perspectives for children, adolescents, and families. We focus on prevention, brain development, the mind-body connection, and team sports concepts to foster socio-emotional fitness through dynamic physical activities. 

Our Vision: Empowering Families with Mental Health Skills 

At Learn & Burn, we believe mental health skills are the missing piece in children's education. We bridge this gap by offering a unique, engaging experience where licensed psychologists teach emotional regulation through interactive, team-building games. Our approach ensures children not only learn but thrive. Introducing the Learn & Burn Explorers Program Our groundbreaking Explorers program is the first of its kind, gamifying mental health education for 2nd to 4th graders. Through plot-driven educational videos, escape-room style games, physical activity challenges, and growth mindset missions, we make learning fun and effective. 

Flexible Program Offerings 

In-Person: We bring the program to schools and other organizations as an after-school initiative or an in-school extracurricular activity. The in-person option is customizable to include incorporating parent meetings and other mental health consultation services to schools and organizations. 

Online: Access our comprehensive digital course at www.learnburnexplore.com, perfect for other psychologists, teachers, counselors, and professionals seeking easy-to-follow, scripted guidance. 

Additional Services 

Beyond our core program and consulting services, Dr. McHugh and Dr. Sasaki offer virtual Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and individual and family therapy sessions to further support mental health needs. Dr. McHugh also conducts psychological evaluations for court cases involving violence, abuse, and trauma with children and families. 

Join us at Learn & Burn and equip the kids you serve with the ultimate playbook for the game of life!
