Counselor/Therapist, LAPC, NCC
Parenting is much harder than what the cute Instagram posts show. You love your kids, but communicating with them has become so difficult and you find that patterns that used to work well aren't effective anymore. Schedules, school, responsibilities, and judgment from others can be so overwhelming. I'm thankful you're seeking help. You don't have to figure all of it out by yourself. Let's work together to find solutions and create new patterns that help your children feel loved and more responsible.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Motherhood exists in many forms: whether you are married, partnered, single, or newly divorced, it is not uncommon to reach a point where you need guidance or a safe space to discuss parenting challenges. Knowing how best to help or support your child can feel like a guessing game. You may struggle to understand how to deal with your own emotions in response to the increased needs or behavioral challenges of your child.
