Irvine, California therapist: Ms. Carol Jean Timmons, marriage and family therapist
Parenting

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.

Los Angeles, California therapist: David Gumpert, psychologist
Parenting

David Gumpert

Psychologist, PsyD
While I do not have specialized training in this subject, I am a parent myself and understand the challenges of balancing personal needs, romantic needs, and showing up for your children. Parenting can also bring up memories or even trauma from our own childhood that hasn't been fully processed. Through understanding your own childhood, you can ensure you break any cycles of patterns so it does not interfere with your parenting moving forward.

Santa Barbara, California therapist: Bridgit Serrano, licensed clinical social worker
Parenting

Bridgit Serrano

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
I specialize in supporting mothers who find that parenting has activated unexpected anxiety, irritability, or old emotional wounds. Early motherhood can intensify perfectionism, self-doubt, and reactivity — especially after a difficult birth experience or during postpartum adjustment. Rather than focusing solely on behavior strategies, we explore what may be happening in your nervous system and attachment patterns so you can parent from a place of steadiness rather than overwhelm. The goal is not to be a perfect parent, but a more regulated and present one.

Dr. Fernando Castrillon

Psychologist, Psy.D.
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.
