Family Therapy

Family Counseling & Parenting Support

       Parenthood, the most wonderfully challenging role you can take on. One minute you feel competent and empowered. Next, you are overwhelmed and confused. You set out with good intentions, yet the path to meeting your parental goals might not always be clear. What felt effective one day, may not the next as your child is changing physically, cognitively, and emotionally. In addition, many parents are facing a variety of environmental factors such as balancing work life and parenthood, financial and/or family stress, possible trauma, and even a parent’s own personal stress level and mood. There are so many variants on a day-to-day basis that play into your ability to parent and make the best decisions you can, which may leave you questioning yourself and needing help.

    Through the therapeutic process, you can gain support and guidance, as well as knowledge about child development and neurological growth. The goal is to help you feel comfortable and empowered in your decision-making process. You can give yourself or your child skills for coping with difficulties more gracefully. Counseling can help reduce anxiety and depression, improve your relationships, and change unwanted patterns from your past.
