Parenting has much to do with the parents' relationship, upbringing, past hurts. Kids act out when there is much anxiety within the family system. I help parents recognize and see the whole family system and dynamic as I help with strategies to connect with their child in a securely attached way.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Boy is parenting hard! Tough love is always tougher on the parent than the child. I have been teaching parenting classes and working with parent for over 20 years. I listen to parents describe their children and their unique situation and collect the data to inform the suggestions I give them. Children need boundaries so they can test them and know they are safe and loved. They also need consequences to motivate them to learn and grow. All parents want to launch successful secure independent young adults so I teach parents how to implement early interventions to meet that goal.

You do not have to be a "perfect" parent; what about a "perfect enough" parent? Generally you do the best you can with what you know AND you also know you can learn more to be even better at parenting. You worry they will be "messed up" but there is one major thing research shows that can help us to raise emotionally healthy children: repair. Parents have said what I teach them is a game changer and has given them hope and focus so they don't feel overwhelmed with all the advice out there. I also help parents save money and time by teaching them to do therapeutic play interventions with their children. The relationship with you is lifelong and worth the investment. Generally, I work with parents of kids under 8 yo.
