Parenting therapists in El Paso, Texas TX
Dr. John VanderKaay & The Center for Mighty Marriages & Families
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, LMFT, BCPCC, BCPC
Effective parenting is the most difficult job in the world. It's also the one many people have the least training in. We are all intended to learn how to be effective parents by being effectively parented by our own parents. If we didn't have that example, we need to learn somewhere else. I help parents learn about their strengths and weaknesses and help parent from their strengths, while improving their weaknesses.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

How many parenting books can one mom or dad read before they figure it all out? At every stage of a child's life, parents can make a positive (or negative) impact. Talking it out with a trained professional can help parents find the ideas that work best for their own family.
