Does your child seems to have more tantrums and more fears than other young children their age? Or the teacher has shared that your preschooler or kindergartener seems to be struggling and not making friends? Maybe your child has gone through something scary, and now you can't leave the room without them clinging to you. Perhaps you have welcomed a baby to the family, and bonding has been challenging. Or the relationship between you and your child is not what you had imagined it would be, and you seem to always end up in a power struggle. Or you'd like to work on the relationship with your autistic child.
I have been a psychotherapist for over 16 years, specializing in infant, early childhood and parent mental health. I can help you address the issues of early childhood (feeding, sleeping, tantrums, bonding difficulties, power struggles, socializing, concentration) so you and your child can have the relationship you want.
Being a young child isn't always easy. Neither is being their parent. Many people feel they're failing at parenting, but the answer isn't to try to be a carbon copy of the perfect parent described in the parenting books. You can be an authentic, responsive version of you as a parent to your particular child. This is where I can help.
