I am also expert in parenting issues and attachment theory.
In life we often ask ourselves "how come I ended up feeling like this, in the same situation again?" The psychodynamic approach has an answer for that: unless we make ourselves aware of what are our hidden motivations we will not get rid of maladaptive patterns that control our lives. Therapy is the exploration through which you get to know yourself better, you get to accept your personal history and the current situation that you are living in; allowing you to bring out the best in your self, improve the quality of your relationships and further your personal growth.

As a licensed school psychologist, I have experience working with children and adolescents in the public schools and it has provided me with knowledge and skills that can assist you as a parent to determine what's best for your child.
A person can attain the ideal health through the proper balance in life. Our philosophy here at Balance Your World, Youth Counseling Services is based on the Ecological Systems Theory that explains how the fundamental qualities of individuals and their environments interact to influence how they grow and develop. We also believe that the whole person is made up of sum of it parts, if one part is not working properly, all the other parts will be impacted. In this way, if there are imbalances (physical, emotional, or mental), it can negatively influence overall growth.

Are you feeling totally overwhelmed by the changes you have had lately in your life to the point that you don’t feel happy with yourself? Changes in our life such as a life transition and/or divorce can leave us thinking on who we truly are and which direction we want to move forward in our life. You can be feeling that what has worked for you before is not any longer bringing joy in your life. I work mainly with people who are struggling with codependency, feel anxious and feel doubtful about themselves. In sessions, I will help you gain stability and feel empowered again in your life.

Parenting Therapists

What does therapy for parenting look like?

Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?

When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?

Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?

Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
