Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
No parent is perfect, and parenting can be an exhausting and challenging job, although rewarding and fulfilling at the same time.
Parent-child relationships have a powerful impact on a child's emotional well-being and self-regulating behavior, problem-solving, and creation of healthy social connections.
Parents can empower their children to succeed in life by offering predictable care, being sensitive to their needs, and being emotionally responsive to their affects.
Professional therapists may help parents navigate conflicts and learn how to use strategies to improve their understanding and balance.

Dr. David Ransen
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, CHt
Parents with challenging kids generally have no need of conventional therapy. Instead, they need only to better understand that kids think, feel, and behave very differently from adults. In a very short time, parents who learn how best to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior see remarkable and lasting changes in their kids' behavior. One simple lesson is among the most powerful: Praise, gratitude and reward for good behavior work wonders, but punishment is neither needed nor helpful. Kids learn just two lessons from punishment. First, they learn to be angry and resentful of whomever punished them. Second, they learn to be more and more clever and sneaky, so that they can continue misbehaving without getting caught. Parents who learn these simple effects of reward and punishment see almost immediate positive changes in their kids' behavior. These changes make kids happier, and dramatically lower the risks of drug use, teen pregnancy, poor grades, and early-morning calls from kids in jail.

Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
Parenting has become a very complex skill in today's postmodern culture. I utilize a combination of psychoeducational therapy and parental coaching in my therapeutic approach. At the core, parental skill development is a highly contextual experience that incorporates thorough family systems assessment. I also take into account a plethora of multicultural variables before embarking on a treatment plan.

Lauren Rance
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist (PsyD, LP)
I specialize in working with parents of deeply feeling and thinking kids. Many of these parents describe their kids as emotionally intense with strong opinions about how things should go. These children might have a formal diagnosis (like ADHD or anxiety) or might not. I help parents learn strategies to strengthen the parent-child relationship through play and set consistent, firm, age-appropriate limits.
