Are You Struggling With Parenting?

Home » Areas of Specialty » Parenting » Page 11

Being responsible for children comes with a great deal of pressure and countless challenges. Parents who are struggling may seek counseling to help them work through their issues.

Available Treatment Options

Therapy serves as a safe space for parents to open up about their concerns regarding their parenting skills and their children. A counselor may address unhelpful thoughts with parents and work on cognitive techniques that expand how the parent thinks about themselves.

If specific behavioral issues leave parents concerned about their child, a therapist or counseling professional specializing in children may teach the parents disciplinary skills and communication techniques or suggest activities that the family can engage in.

Life can be difficult and most of us are doing the best that we can given our circumstances. Sometimes, things become too stressful and the need arises to seek help outside of ourselves.

We are wired for connection; we need it to survive, but more importantly, we need it to thrive. To experience ourselves in connection when perhaps we have disconnected, as a way to survive our hurts or traumas, is an important part of healing. Working with a therapist is one great way to do this. I see therapy as a collaborative process that relies on trust and authenticity to foster insight an...
