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.

Without vulnerability, there is no growth. Sometimes our "own stuff" influenced by family generations and personal experiences get in the way of our healing. It is intuitive for us to defend against such vulnerabilities for protection and at the same time such defenses do an outstanding job of stunting our growth. Where's the balance? This is the reason I believe therapy is about creating a saf...
