Healthy parent/child relationships reflect secure attachment, responsive attunement, and mutual enjoyment.
The language of children is play; so play is an integral part of child therapy sessions.

I also know sign language and would be happy to consult to see if my skill level meets your needs.

Patients have highlighted my ability to hold compassion towards them and towards the people they have difficult relationships with (whether parents, kids, spouse, or friends) and this has helped them to find compassion towards them which leads to healthier relationships and boundaries.
I don't use cookie-cutter techniques because I understand that everyone has different strengths as well as needs. I like to be a team with my patient where they are the experts of their lives and I'm the expert in de-tangling and supporting them through difficult situations with empathy, compassion and when needed, techniques and psycho education. Patients can expect me to inquire why they have come to therapy, what happened and what their goals/expectations are. Then I will also want to know about their past to better understand how they have gotten to where they are, during this I will be highlighting strengths and needs.

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.
