Parenting Consultation
I offer practical and supportive consultation services that provide expert advice and tailored solutions for specific parenting challenges. Unlike therapy, which explores underlying emotional or psychological concerns, my consultations focus on addressing immediate problems and guiding decision-making to help you thrive as a parent.
