30 - Does Your Child or Family Need Professional Help?

Dr. Tara Egan, co-host
Anna, teenage co-host

Do you ever wonder if your kid is just  going through a phase and/or your family is not connected OR is it actually time to get professional help? I get asked this question quite often, so today Anna and I are going to delve into this subject a little bit.  My goal is for families to know if getting a counselor or clinician is right for them or not.

We cover:
The signs that professional help would be beneficial for a family.

The symptoms that mean that professional help is essential.

What are characteristics to expect when working with a professional?

Common phrases that I hear from parents all the time...I yell all the time, I am ashamed of the things say to my kid, my spouse and I disagree on almost all aspects of parenting...and many more!

We discuss the stigma that counseling has associated with it.

Factors to consider before getting therapy.
 -  frequency
 - intensity
 - duration
