Long Beach, California therapist: Luis Maimoni, marriage and family therapist
Parenting

Luis Maimoni

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When your children were born, were you given the official parenting class? The one that answers all your questions about how to raise a child? No? When mine were born, I wasn't given the class either. I wish I could have seen me about my children back in the days when it would have done me some good!

San Jose, California therapist: Growth and Change Counseling, marriage and family therapist
Parenting

Growth and Change Counseling

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anytime we work with a child, we want to work with the parent, not because the parent might be doing something wrong, but because as a parent you have the single greatest influence in your child's life. Anything that goes from me to your child just is not nearly as effective as anything that goes from you to your child. So we partner with the parents and the child and utilize a collaborative plan.

Being a parent is really tough. We all need a helping hand sometimes. As an experienced psychotherapist and a parent of a challenging young adult myself, I have helped many families find peace and harmony in the face of mental illness, divorce, and addiction. I enjoy empowering parents to explore their own family background and adapt to what’s in front of them today. I specialize in working with ADHD, OCD, and neurodivergent teens and adults.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Heidi Hartston, psychologist
Parenting

Heidi Hartston

Psychologist, PhD
Parenting can be an overwhelming job, navigating IEPs, advocating for children with disabilities and finding the right resources, emotionally regulating yourself and helping your child as they struggle, and managing family and sibling conflict. There is a journey of self-development that accompanies parenting at each stage. Therapy involves working collaboratively to help you reduce parenting stress, maintain your relationship and be a strong and loving resource for your children. I combine insightful, caring depth work with effective, evidence based techniques to help you establish balance, calm and happiness even in challenging situations.

Downey is a southeast Los Angeles County city known as a hub of Latino middle-class life, with deep Mexican-American roots, strong family networks, and a proud civic identity (and NASA-era aerospace history). Mental health needs center on intergenerational family dynamics, work and financial stress, and stigma that still frames therapy as a last resort for many. Rancho Los Amigos' renowned rehabilitation campus anchors regional healthcare, with LA's market and Spanish-language practitioners key to access.
