Parenting through Covid-19

Posted by Molly Mattison

  As a therapist I have been working with parents for over 20 years.  I have consulted on so many different parenting concerns that I could not possibly list all of them.  Consulting with parents on how to take care of their children during a pandemic is new to me. There are no chapters in books, at least that I can ...READ MORE »
