Parent Support Sessions
Support for the moments that leave you wondering what to do next.
Does your child struggle with emotional meltdowns that seem to come out of nowhere? Do they hold it together all day at school, only to come home and fall apart? Are you navigating separation anxiety, big emotions, or behaviors that feel difficult to understand or manage?
Parent Support Sessions help you better understand what may be contributing to your child's behavior while providing practical, evidence-based strategies you can begin using at home. Together, we'll focus on helping you model emotional regulation, strengthen your connection with your child, and feel more confident responding during challenging moments. Small, meaningful changes can begin with a clearer understanding of what your child needs.
These sessions are educational and supportive; they are not therapy, and your child does not attend. Parent Support Sessions do not provide a diagnosis, assessment, or treatment for your child. If it appears that your child could benefit from an evaluation, therapy, or another service, we'll discuss appropriate recommendations and next steps for your family.

What a Parent Support Session looks like
During our session, we will talk through your concerns, identify patterns or triggers surrounding difficult moments, and discuss what you have already tried. Together, we will identify practical strategies that fit your child and family. My goal is to help you leave with a clearer understanding of how to support your child at home. If your child may benefit from therapy, an evaluation, or another service, I will discuss appropriate next steps with you.
