Dr. Kyle Good Parent Support
Are you finding that your child is refusing to
do the smallest tasks or is getting in your face about almost everything?
Issues tend to grow as your son or daughter
grows and develops. It may be difficult to admit that outside help is needed. Perhaps you feel you've made mistakes along the way that didn't help the situation. Or, in hindsight, you understand more now and wish you had done some things differently. These are all very normal feelings. Unless you have a crystal ball that you've forgotten to gaze into, you are not at fault for your child needing professional help. Blame will not help you or your child. Instead, you are now in the process of making a decision that will support your efforts. Seeking counsel from a professional may be a new path. It is understandable to be anxious about all of this. I meet with parents first in order to learn from you the issues and struggles that have prompted you to seek professional help for your child. Then, I meet with your child to assess if therapy is even necessary, and if so, prepare my recommendations in moving forward. I share these recommendations with you so that, as the grown-ups, we can be sophisticated in how we think about the problems and solutions. Signs Your Child or Adolescent May Need Help from a Child & Adolescent Expert No one "sign" means you need help from a child and adolescent specialist; however, several signs may wave a red flag. Research shows that the longer a parent waits to get help for their child, the more severe the issues might become. If your child is not outgrowing the problem, professional help may be needed. Some Signs to Help Spot Your Child's Need for a Professional Intervention:

worries and concerns so that I may help.
