Parenting Group

A safe space to share the struggles and the joys of parenting — and, most importantly, a place to get useful parenting strategies.

It is led by a Peace-Filled therapist and built around the reality that the hardest part of parenting is often how alone it feels.

• Practical strategies for behavior that is not working
• Positive reinforcement, and what to do when it stops landing
• Boundaries, consistency, and following through when you are exhausted
• Talking with your child about big feelings
• Managing your own stress, so it does not become theirs
• Deepening the parent-child bond when it has gone tense
• Knowing when your child needs more support than the household can give

There is a specific relief in hearing another parent describe your Tuesday evening.

Parenting advice is everywhere and most of it is written by people who are not in your house. In a group, the strategies come from a therapist and from parents who have tried them with real children who did not cooperate.

Nobody here is going to pretend they have it handled.

Parents, guardians, grandparents, and caregivers, at any stage. Parents of toddlers and parents of teenagers both belong — the specifics differ, the weight does not.

You do not need a child in crisis to come. Wanting to do it better is enough.

No judgment about your household, your discipline, your marriage, or your choices. No implication that a struggling child means a failing parent.

We are not going to hand you a philosophy. We are going to help you find what works for your family.

Available in person in Brooklyn and virtually for parents across New York.

Reach out and tell us a little about your household and what has been hard. We will let you know when the group meets and whether there is space — and if what you actually need is family therapy or support for your child, we will tell you that instead.

Parenting is a journey that requires a strong village. Let us be part of yours.
