Parenting can be a challenging and
exhausting job. Many parents find support by meeting with me alone from time to
time during the course of their child’s therapy. We will discuss any concerns
and frustrations you may be experiencing. I will assist you with helpful tips
for guiding your child through developmental stages successfully. You will learn
simple but effective ways to handle your child’s emotions and behavior. I will
offer easy to read handouts as well as book and video recommendations. You may
want to let your child know you are also learning new ways to assist them.
