Parenthood is a constantly evolving relationship to beings who are ever changing. What can be described as one of the most bittersweet experiences in life includes the fact that change is the only constant. With each developmental stage, a complicated mix of feelings can arise, including pride and a mourning for the loss for the once small baby who wanted "uppy." As your children grow and bloom, parenting can feel challenging and what worked at once stage may not work for another. Parents can feel themselves getting stuck when old parenting strategies fall short. At North Berkeley Counseling, our highly trained collective of therapists has experience working with parents to cope with the stress and celebrate the triumphs. Reach out if you could benefit from additional support in your role as a parent.
