It is so important to do our best to resolve issues when children are young rather than in their teens or adulthood. So many issues that we see in adults stem from unresolved issues from when they were children. Early intervention and prevention are important. It is easier to resolve issues before they have years to grow and become entrenched. Therapy is tailored to the child with play therapy being one very valuable approach.

Co-parenting with a Narcissistic parent can prove challenging and may even feel impossible. A balanced co-parenting relationship is about the well-being and needs of the child, not the parent/s. If you are attempting to co-parent with someone you believe demonstrates narcissistic traits, you likely feel frustrated, defeated and exhausted. Every interaction may feel like a power struggle and you wish your co-parent prioritized the needs of the kids like you do. You are worried about your kids and the impact of this on them. I understand and I can help. You are invited to email me or even schedule via the scheduling portal if you are feeling ready to start.

Children have worries, fears, intense emotions, and issues with change and past trauma, just like adults. And like adults, they sometimes need help in processing these experiences. Children do not have the same ability as adults to be able to identify, understand, and talk about their feelings. That is where play therapy comes in. In play therapy, children use play to express and process their troubles. Our therapists work closely with the parents to help their children deal with their feelings and the behavior issues that are often attached.

Parenting is the most guilt inducing task I see in my therapy practice. It's heavy when relationships with our little ones is broken. If you need help parenting children in a way that works for you and for them, I will coach you in improving your parenting techniques. My study in the area of Interpersonal Neurobiology can help you discover why you each seem to blow your top so easily with each other and find ways to soothe your own nervous system and your child's so that blowouts diminish. You can set your child up for a positive relationship future and that starts with repairing their bond with you. You can recover from your mistakes.
