Parenting

Marina Goldenberg

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
Many parents would agree that though they read the books, and took the classes, and maybe even spent time taking care of children before having their own, they still felt unprepared for parenthood. There are as many reasons why as there are parents, but at the end of the day, it's impossible to be completely prepared for parenting because you just don't know what you don't know. And when you do know it, you still may not know how to make that knowledge work. Parenting, even at the best of times, can be exhausting and stressful, but add on all the other things that complicate our lives - careers, money worries, romantic, platonic and family relationships, other people's expectations and judgments, the lack of support, single parenthood, you name it - and things get harder and harder. And what if your child has special or different needs? It's not easy being a kid, and watching your kid struggle, either with health issues, or mental health, or academics or peer relationships, or literally any of the countless other things that kids have to navigate, can feel like an impossible task. And on top of that you're somehow supposed to take care of yourself and pay the bills? Well look, I can't take those stressors away, but I can help you figure out how to navigate the (maybe literal, maybe figurative) sh!tstorm that is modern parenting, take gentler care of yourself and cultivate a life that honors your values and your hopes and wishes for yourself, your family and your child.

In addition, I have experience doing research on helping support parents who are caregivers to children/adult children who are diagnosed with a mental health disorder parents in these situations need as much support and care as their children and it is my goal to provide that for them.

New York therapist: Dr Laura Soden, psychologist
Parenting

Dr Laura Soden

Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Parenting, the most important and most difficult job in an adult's life, is intuitive only if the individual him/herself was parented perfectly. For most of us, some poor parenting strategies modeled by our own parents need to be unlearned and replaced by effective strategies. Being present for your children, listening, being clear and consistent with expectations, and, most importantly, using positive reinforcement, rather than punishment, together set up the loving environment in which children thrive. These strategies can be learned and practiced in session and exercised at home for parents that don't just feel empowered, but actually are empowered, in control, and effective .

New York City, New York therapist: Kate E. Stephenson, life coach
Parenting

Kate E. Stephenson

Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The pressure to be the perfect parent and professional is immense and intense. Our culture covets the perfect life and cultivates a narrative that you can have it all if you just try hard enough. In my most professional capacity, I call NONSENSE on that (insert more forceful word if you'd like). Holistic Life Coaching can be a powerful experience in which we examine, explore, and elevate your own definition of successful parenting, empowering your parental presence according to YOUR values, character, and strengths. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement any therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I offer tools that can increase ease, support the maintenance of positive healthy boundaries, increase satisfaction in your life, improve communication and connection with your children, and so much more. Let's talk about what being a parent means to you.
