Parenting Support

Many of the psychologists at CAPSS offer parenting support for common parenting challenges, such as parenting anxious kids, “2e” & neurodivergent kids, and children with strong emotions and/ or challenging behaviors.

Additionally, Dr. Amy Bohlander is periodically offering a 6-session small-group workshop titled Parenting Anxious Kids. If you are interested in participating, please complete our New Client Inquiry Form.
