Is your child and/or adolescent struggling to adapt to life's changes? Are they exhibiting behavioral, emotional, or cognitive problems that are beyond that of what is typically seen for their age? Being a parent is the hardest, yet most rewarding part of life. However, a parent's job becomes increasingly more difficult and complicated when your child is struggling to express feelings, explore relationships, and build self-esteem. It affects not only the child, but the family as a unit.
