Parenting is a rewarding experience with ups and downs, but there are times when the downs are too much to handle on your own. A parenting therapist can devise strategies to help you get through difficult situations that arise as you’re parenting.

Whether you are located in downtown New York, Battery Park City, Brooklyn Heights, Carroll Gardens, or even Chelsea, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.
