What is Parenting Differences?

Differences in parenting styles—whether permissive, authoritative, or otherwise—often stem from individual upbringing, values, and life experiences. We assist families in understanding these differences and finding collaborative approaches that support children’s growth.

When one needs treatment?

    • Repeated disagreements between caregivers about rules, routines, or discipline
    • Children receiving mixed messages, leading to confusion or behavioral issues
    • Resentment or tension building between partners due to unresolved parenting conflicts
    • A wish to create a unified, supportive parenting plan that respects each caregiver’s perspective

Which therapists to see?

    • Kirsten Nyman, LMFT
    • Paige Salters, MSW, LCSWA, LCASA
    • Mariam Al-Akhdar, LCMHCA
