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 believe that it is necessary to interact with clients as feeling, thinking, and embodied beings; therapy must address each person holistically and relationally in all aspects: emotional, cognitive, and behavioral.
