Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
No parent is perfect, and parenting can be an exhausting and challenging job, although rewarding and fulfilling at the same time.
Parent-child relationships have a powerful impact on a child's emotional well-being and self-regulating behavior, problem-solving, and creation of healthy social connections.
Parents can empower their children to succeed in life by offering predictable care, being sensitive to their needs, and being emotionally responsive to their affects.
Professional therapists may help parents navigate conflicts and learn how to use strategies to improve their understanding and balance.

Dr. David Ransen
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, CHt
Parents with challenging kids generally have no need of conventional therapy. Instead, they need only to better understand that kids think, feel, and behave very differently from adults. In a very short time, parents who learn how best to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior see remarkable and lasting changes in their kids' behavior. One simple lesson is among the most powerful: Praise, gratitude and reward for good behavior work wonders, but punishment is neither needed nor helpful. Kids learn just two lessons from punishment. First, they learn to be angry and resentful of whomever punished them. Second, they learn to be more and more clever and sneaky, so that they can continue misbehaving without getting caught. Parents who learn these simple effects of reward and punishment see almost immediate positive changes in their kids' behavior. These changes make kids happier, and dramatically lower the risks of drug use, teen pregnancy, poor grades, and early-morning calls from kids in jail.

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.
