How to know if parenting therapy might help:

Does your child make demands like, “I’m only eating chips or ice cream”? Do they demand your attention away from a sibling by saying things like, “My sister is stupid and I hate her” or use manipulative comments like "I can't sleep unless you stay with me!" at bedtime? You may suspect that this oppositional behavior stems from underlying anxiety. Does your child's anxiety have you walking on eggshells, terrified of triggering another emotional meltdown?

As a therapist who specializes in parenting, I have helped hundreds of parents just like you to break free from the cycle of worry and self-doubt, to develop healthy communication techniques, and to reclaim the joy and success possible in parenting.

I guide individuals, families, and couples toward finding peace through improved relationships. This is possible through building skill with attuned listening, positive parenting strategies, self-awareness, boundary setting, and assertive communication.

After 25 years in children’s mental health, helping distressed children with complex emotional and behavioral challenges as well as their exhausted families, I have developed a passion for parent therapy. The skills and strategies I teach are designed to help both the children who struggle with emotional and behavioral problems and their parents achieve success.

As parents of children who struggle with emotional regulation, you are under stress. No situation is beyond hope. My clients leave our sessions with real insight and tools with which to move forward. I believe in building on your strengths and "keeping it positive." 

Sessions are conveniently available in the late afternoons or evenings (including weekends), online only.
