Parenting is hard enough without the world telling you what you should and should not to do help your struggling child. As a parent of a child with unique challenges, such as learning disorders, attention issues and anxiety, you've tried it all - and well-meaning advice from family and friends just leaves you feeling misunderstood and isolated.

I understand, from first-hand experience, what many of my clients are going through. Childhood isn't always easy, and factors outside kids' control can prevent them from reaching their goals and dreams. As a child, I suffered from severe allergies - made worse by the rich farmland in the area where I grew up.
Young children don't yet have the developmental awareness to know why their big feelings overtake them in stressful situations. They simply know that they hurt, and they want to feel better. They also need help learning how to solve problems for themselves. Along the way, parents need to know that their child's unique challenges don't define them.
I tell teens that, from the time they were born, their parents already signed up to handle everything their children will do in life - good, bad or indifferent. As I work with your teen to develop coping skills and strategies for navigating school and their all-important social lives, I will help you better understand your teen and access tools to be a better parent.
Parents, take heart. There is hope. Sometimes children have challenges that require therapeutic intervention, but those challenges don't have to hinder your child from progressing and achieving a more fulfilling life. From academics to friendships to family, your child's world is complex. For children with unique challenges, such as attention or learning disorders, the hurdles can seem incredibly steep.
Kids with anxiety carry such a huge burden on their shoulders, but parents can be their soft place to land. That doesn't mean parents remove all obstacles in their children's lives. It means they learn to support their anxious child through emotional moments and show love and confidence no matter what happens.
