Child Psychologists and Child Therapists in Champlin, MN.

I find that I am most successful in working with children when I am able to gain trust and rapport with their parents. My personal belief is that there is no one more expert about a child than his mother or father. I also believe that the mother or father is typically the person with the greatest therapeutic capability with that child. I see my role as working with the child in collaboration with the parent. I know that to work with the child I have to work gently and patiently to gain their trust. I find that play is the language of a child so that I like to use stuffed animals, whiteboard illustrations,& lots of humor. I teach parents how to be effective in working with their own child.

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.
