Online Therapy for Parents
Parenting can be incredibly beautiful and incredibly challenging. This is a safe space to unpack the challenges, create more joy and connection with your child, and celebrate growth.
Approach
I partner with moms and dads to address the bumps in the road that come up in parenting. We work together to unpack how you learned to parent, explore what your child is communicating through their behaviors, and add some new tools to your toolbox for how to understand and respond to challenging behaviors and uncomfortable emotions with confidence.
Parenting can be hard
One of the hardest things about parenting is that it’s implicit, meaning we operate on autopilot without much conscious thought. Most people parent the way they were parented. That works for some kids and parents, and not for others. A goal of our work together, in addition to the specific challenges we’re working on, is to build awareness of your parenting process so you can confidently choose how you respond to your child, especially in the challenging moments.
