Parental Guidance
Parent guidance is a psychological and educational process designed to help parents adapt their approach to their children’s needs and the family dynamic.
Parenting can be challenging, and difficulties may arise at times. Professional guidance can assist in choosing the right approach, improving family dynamics, and providing tools to handle difficult situations effectively.
Sessions are typically led by a licensed psychologist with experience working with children, adolescents, and parents. They are suitable for all stages of parenting—from early childhood to adolescence.

What to Expect from Parent Guidance
Parent guidance is led by experienced and certified professionals with expertise in psychology, mental health, and child development. In this process, parents collaborate with the guide to create a personalized plan designed to improve family dynamics and address parenting challenges effectively and comfortably.
