Embrace The Challenge: Seeking Help in Parenting.
Parenting can be overwhelming, especially when you feel isolated and your interactions with your child are distressing. It’s completely normal to feel like you’re not doing enough, to feel lost in the search for solutions, and to doubt your abilities. But take heart—you’re not alone.
We understand the toll this takes on your self-esteem when you feel judged or misunderstood. Feeling angry or frustrated is okay; it shows how much you care. And it’s okay to reach out for help.
Our expert support is here to help you forge new dynamics in your parent-child relationship. We’re dedicated to offering honest feedback, opportunities for growth, and new ways to find joy and pleasure in your most important role.
Our aim isn’t to diagnose or pathologize children, but we acknowledge that sometimes this process is essential to discover the right approaches, build a supportive community, find helpful professionals, and work with your child’s school. We know that even those who are well-connected and resourceful can find this daunting. That’s why we’re here—to provide support and guidance every step of the way.
Together, we can cultivate the skills necessary to create a secure bond with your child, giving them the sense of security they need. Let’s start this journey of understanding and connection, where every step forward brings us closer to more rewarding interactions and a stronger relationship.
Grounded and Joyful Parenting: Your Journey, Our Guidance
Our approach is centered on a parent-centered philosophy, and we believe that the most important skills your child can learn come from learning to regulate their emotions, feeling loved and secure, and being accepted by the most important people in their lives—you parents. We aim to create a strong and collaborative team with you first.
Between the ages of 6-10, our approach often requires an individual child therapy approach centered around play and skill-building. This helps the child navigate their experiences and relationships at home, as well as beyond into their social life
