Peg Roberts
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I work with parents of adult children who have trouble knowing when to step in and when to step out of their child's life. It's a balancing act. But learning healthy boundaries can help alleviate anxiety, worry or fear as adult children make decisions for themselves and their families. It's a great relief.

Dr. Mary L. Hendrickson
Psychologist, Psy.D.,LP
Parenting children is a time full of joy and challenges, but also struggles as you are trying to be present to assist your child's growth. Parenting can also bring up many memories, feelings and thoughts about one's own childhood and parents.
Therapy can be a wonderful environment to assist in understanding your own parenting style and struggles, but also sort through how you were parented which does impact your role as a parent to your children. As you begin to develop this understanding in therapy with a professional psychologist, you may be able to develop clearer choices in how you want to parent.

Parent Support Program
The UCEBT Parenting Program provides support for parents in conjunction with their child’s individual treatment or as a stand-alone support. At some point in parenting, all parents will experience unique challenges with their child. Depending on our child’s temperament, stage of development, and our child’s experiences, these challenges may show up as problematic behaviors (e.g., feeling down, acting out, refusing to go to school, excessing arguing, isolating). These behaviors can be unexpected and even very different from other children in the same family. At times, these behaviors can persist and cause problems for the whole family, despite our best efforts. In fact, sometimes our best efforts (e.g., taking things away, giving extra leeway), can lead to even more problematic behaviors and a sense of hopelessness or frustration in ourselves as parents. Fortunately, involving parents in the treatment process has consistently been shown to successfully reduce these behaviors, in fact, more successfully than individual treatment for the child or adolescent alone. These treatments allow the parents to gain emotional support and the tools they need to manage their child’s behavior.
Therapists at UCEBT are compassionate about, and committed to, providing this support for parents so that they can more quickly reduce children’s problem behaviors and regain their healthy and happy family relationships.
Therapists in this program are trained in evidence based treatments including:
Triple P (Positive Parenting Program)
Incredible Years Training Series
Family Systems Therapy
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Boy is parenting hard! Tough love is always tougher on the parent than the child. I have been teaching parenting classes and working with parent for over 24 years. I listen to parents describe their children and their unique situation and collect the data to inform the suggestions I give them. Children need boundaries so they can test them and know they are safe and loved. They also need consequences to motivate them to learn and grow. All parents want to launch successful secure independent young adults so I teach parents how to implement early interventions to meet that goal.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Parenting - "All joy and no fun" is a quote I hear often and it resonates. It has been a great joy and the hardest job. It's hard to know if we are "doing it right" and "I don't want to screw up my kid" are the most common things my clients tell me. Let's talk about your parenting values and how this aligns with your parenting reality to learn some ways to increase your confidence.
