EMERGE offers Parent Groups and Coaching to support parents in navigating the challenges of raising children. Our services provide practical guidance, connection, and strategies for handling parenting issues, including screen addiction, perfectionism, and blending parenting styles. Parent Groups Raising children can be challenging, overwhelming, and deeply rewarding; often all at once. Parents are constantly learning, adjusting, and doing their best with the tools they have. Our parent groups are designed to offer support, practical guidance, and a sense of connection so you don’t have to navigate parenting alone. To help, we offer several services: Find support, build skills, and navigate parenting with confidence. Join Now Parent Coaching EMERGE offers coaching designed to empower parents by helping them identify their parenting goals, develop skills and effectively address challenging parenting issues. Different from therapy, coaching focuses on working only with parents and offering more direct feedback and problem-solving. It can range from a single session consult to an ongoing coaching relationship throughout the parenting years. For more information, contact us . The following trainings for parents were conducted for the DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program and can be accessed via the DJUSD website (link below). Parent Training SCREEN ADDICTIONS DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program December 2024 For many children and teens, screen use can mimic patterns of drug addiction and create difficulties associated with addictions, such as lying, stealing, pleading, threatening and erupting in anger. When parents attempt to limit screen use, they may face enormous challenges with no easy answers. This PEP Talk discussed the growing prevalence of screen addictions and strategies parents can use to address these issues and live more harmoniously. Watch PERFECTIONISM IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program October 2024 Perfectionism can be a force for success and achievement, but it can also lead to high stress levels, strained relationships and burnout. Characterized by unrealistic standards and harsh inner criticism, perfectionism contributes to many psychological conditions, including depression, anxiety, self-harm and eating disorders. Often starting in childhood, perfectionism appears to be on the rise in the United States. This workshop covered what perfectionism is, how it can sabatoge success and what parents can do to help their perfectionistic children. Watch BLENDING MODERN AND TRADITIONAL PARENTING DJUSD Parent Empowerment Program May 2024 Modern parenting is a relatively recent development that is marked by a child-centered, emotion-focused and process-oriented approach. Traditional parenting has a long legacy and is family-centered, behavior-focused and responsibility-oriented. This workshop explored the benefits and challenges of both approaches and discuss strategies for blending these two styles of parenting. Watch

We take things at their pace to help them recognize their feelings, calm their bodies, and build confidence in managing emotions as they come up.

Our therapists take a supportive, balanced approach that helps both partners feel respected and comfortable in the process. Will the therapist take sides? No. Couples therapy is not about choosing one partner over the other; it’s about understanding the relationship dynamic and supporting both individuals. Do we have to be in crisis to start couples therapy? Not at all. Many couples begin therapy to strengthen communication, deepen connection, or prevent small issues from becoming larger.
