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.

I know that it's difficult to take that first step in asking for help. Sometimes the first step is recognizing we need support before making that vulnerable call (or sending that email). It's okay if you don't even know what you need, as long as you recognize that what you're doing isn't working anymore. I'm here to help you figure out what you need and put together a plan that feels possible....
"What I am is good enough, if I would only be it openly". I have centered most of my work on this strength base belief of Carl Rogers. It is so easy to focus on what is not working and what has to be 'fixed' rather than on what is working and what is right in ourselves. Our society, social media, and some of our environments give us the message that we need to be 'better' that we are not 'good...
