Parenting Support Sessions (PSS)

PSS are special, one-on-one, psychoeducation-based support sessions which provide parents with the ability to support their child's mental and emotional needs.

 

In this 8-session series, parents will connect with Ms. Julie, receive information, and engage in valuable discussion on topics such as:

 - Child development information 

- Building effective routines, rhythms, and expectaions

- Communicating and co-regulating during meltdowns

- Impletemnting effective limits and consequences to manage difficult behaviors.

 

PSS can be a very helpful way to engage in your child's mental health, and be proactive in your parenting skills. These sessions can provide information for parents who are waiting for their child to be seen by a clinician, or simply for parents who wish to be present, engaged, and to improve the overall quality of the relationship between them and their child.

Child-Parent Relationship Training (CPRT) and Filial Therapy

​CPRT aims to empower parents and improve the relationship between parent and child. This is done by engaging parents and caregivers directly as the agents of therapeutic change.

 

In this 10-12 week course, the parent has the opportunity to learn a variety of methods for engaging their child while still maintaining limits during special play times. These sessions can take place one-on-one with Julie, or in a group setting.

​

CPRT encompasses may parts of the parenthood experience but specifically focuses on:

- Engaging in an empowering, empathetic way with your children

- Setting and maintaining appropriate limits with children

- Emphasizing parent-child connection through play and communication

​ 

There are currently no scheduled group sessions.

For session scheduling, please contact Julie.
