I believe that children and adolescents need their parents' active presence in their lives. My focus with parents is on helping them create a healthy parent-child connection. Attachment focused parenting is a parenting style that creates a sense of closeness and security between a child and parent, which sets a foundation for stable relationships, resilience, and cohesive identity. A child who trusts in their parental attachment will feel safe enough to do things independently with confidence and a strong sense of agency.

 

When your child struggles you may feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and confused. Although you can't control your child's temperament, you can influence the depth of parent-child connection. Sometimes the best way to help kids is by working with parents in individual parent sessions. Parent consultation will provide you with the opportunity to become more conscious of your attachment with your child as we will work together to make sense of your child from inside out. You will gain valuable skills in helping your child feel grounded, connected, and successful in life. By increasing the quality of parent-child attachment you and your child will benefit from a deeper bond filled with understanding and compassion.
