annporter ‖ COUNSELING CHILDREN
The Centre for Family Therapy Inc. offers coParenting and parenting education and counseling and reunification services in Costa Mesa.
annporter ‖ Counseling Children is a child-parent psychotherapy relationship practice focused on a cohesive, basic framework of the child's self-esteem looking at the child's psychological, emotional, social, and cognitive developmental stages of growth and wellbeing.
My philosophy is that counseling parents is a collaborative creative process and I take great care to help parents focus on their goals and dreams and desires for their children to help them not only to feel better but also to live better.

Parent and coParenting counseling sessions designed to help you to understand the impact separation, divorce, conflict, and family litigation can have on you and your children. These court-mandated sessions will provide you with beneficial information to help you minimize the stress and harmful effects upon you and your children in what can be a very difficult challenging experience in your life.

Even though you have been ordered by court to attend coParenting and parenting classes, remember your children. Your children need a happy stable parent. They need you to be the change and make a difference.
You can be more confident and relaxed as a parent. And, you can become a nurturing parent to cultivate a solid sense of self-worth in your child.
It all begins with a new way of looking at early childhood and adolescent development and getting the skills and know-how you need.
In my approach to counseling parents, feeling more relaxed is only the beginning – it’s about helping parents to utilize new tools and skills to raise responsible, productive, happy children to live as fully functioning adults who lead meaningful lives.
