Ms. Carol Jean Timmons
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
From my own experience of parenting and grand parenting comes a heart for parents to learn how to effectively deal with their children! Never before in history has there been so much information available on the subject of parenting! And never before has there been so much confusion on the part of parents as to how best to parent - especially in this era of social media! We tend to replicate or react to the parenting we received as children. But there are tested and proven principles of parenting that can help parents learn the art and skill of dealing effectively with their children. Our goal is to raise responsible adults, not just obedient children.

Stella Zweben Samuel, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I run several groups for parents providing education and support to parents of adolescents and young adults. These groups allow parents to gain answers to questions and support for the difficult job of parenting adolescents and young adults today. I also work with parents of adolescents to identify what strategies might help to strengthen the relationship between parent and child.

There are few more challenging endeavors than that of being a parent. As we delve into any parenting difficulties you may have, we will also bear in mind the larger social context in which parenting and child-rearing occurs in, so as to move forward effectively.

Amy Price, AMP Family Therapy Inc.
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting is such a gift. It is also tremendously difficult and has different challenges than our parents had. I like to encourage parents to be the leaders, nurturers and boundary-holders they can be for their kids. Kids need, desire and benefit greatly from parenting that communicates incredible love and boundaries. Let me help you see how that is possible. I can also provide access to the Prepare-Enrich Parenting Assessment, which provides insight for the married couple parenting their own kids or the blended family's children. This can help enhance family communication, reduce parenting stress, and address child behavior concerns, while keeping the couple at the center.

Fresno sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and serves a largely agricultural economy, with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of seasonal work instability, rural poverty, and the physical and psychological demands of farmworker life. The city has large Hispanic, Hmong, and Southeast Asian communities — many with refugee backgrounds — creating demand for multilingual and culturally informed therapists who work with intergenerational trauma, resettlement stress, and identity. Community Regional Medical Center and UCSF Fresno provide institutional mental health resources, while the California State University Fresno psychology program feeds practitioners into the local community. Fresno's relatively limited therapy density compared to coastal metros makes telehealth an important access route for residents across the Central Valley.
