Child/Family Therapy
Ideally children grow up in an environment where loving parents meet their physical and emotional needs on a consistent basis. When your child learns to expect this care to be kind and predictable, then they learn that the world is a safe place where people can be trusted. This is what secure attachment looks like.
Even when you do your best as a parent, environmental factors, such as traumatic events and significant life stressors that impact either you or your child, can affect the way you interact with each other. While these challenges might manifest at any time from toddlers to teens, it’s important to keep in mind that a healthy relationship with your child is how you are best able to influence them in a positive way.
