Parents
Parents come to therapy because they care deeply, and sometimes feel like they can’t take another minute of the chaos.
You want to support your child without constant power struggles, second-guessing, or walking on eggshells.
Amy helps parents understand what’s really driving behavior, then builds clear, practical tools that create real change.
This isn’t about blame. It’s about insight, structure, and momentum.
