Parent Guidance 

Having children is one of the most rewarding experiences an adult can have. As a mother, I know that it is also one of the most frustrating, difficult challenges that most people encounter.

When your child is having difficulties, either with acting out behaviors, moodiness, depression, anxiety or peer difficulties, it can help to talk with a psychologist about how you are handling the situation. I can teach you new strategies for helping your child through a difficult time. Parent guidance sessions are usually combined with play, individual, and/or family therapy sessions in order to maximize the benefits of treatment.

Parent guidance sessions may be helpful for parents who . . .
       are having difficulty redirecting or correcting inappropriate behavior in their child
       want to learn how to help their child deal more effectively with stress
       want to help an older child adjust to the birth or adoption of a sibling
       are concerned that their child is having difficulty with peers
