Parent Consultations

Consultation services are available for parents who need guidance or advice on how to handle various behavioral issues with their children. Some parents seek consultations regarding their child’s oppositional or defiant behavior; for support in addressing issues such as potty training, bereavement, and other life situations; guidance in talking to children about divorce, past traumas, sexualized behaviors; as well as various issues impacting a child’s schooling. Sessions generally last an hour to an hour and a half and can be provided weekly or on an as needed basis. Consultations are a great option for parents who cannot commit to weekly sessions due to time or financial constraints, but are looking for some helpful
insight or guidance.

Prenatal and Postpartum Counseling

Parenting is one of life’s most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Whether you’re pregnant and anticipating the arrival of your first baby, navigating the joys and struggles of your second, or managing the complexities of your growing family with a fourth child, every stage brings its own set of hurdles. Welcoming a new baby into your home can be an exciting time, but it may also introduce unexpected stress. It can shift the dynamic within your family, leading to changes in parental roles and causing feelings of imbalance. You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or even disconnected, and that’s okay. Experiencing sadness, anger, guilt, or heightened anxiety doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong—these are common responses to major life changes like the arrival of a newborn. You don’t have to carry this emotional weight alone. With a dedicated postpartum specialist on our team, we’re here to walk with you, offering the support and guidance you need to navigate this challenging yet beautiful journey. Whether you’re facing emotional challenges or simply need someone to talk to, we are here to provide compassionate care and practical advice.

Eating disorders

Eating disorders are most common in adolescents, often beginning around age 12. They can occur in both males and females, and affect individuals across all backgrounds. Factors such as stress, poor nutrition, and fad dieting can contribute to the development of disordered eating habits. Social pressures, low self-esteem, and difficulty coping with emotions can increase vulnerability. Early recognition and support are key in helping young people build a healthier relationship with food and their bodies. CBT-E (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Eating Disorders) is currently considered one of the most effective and evidence-based treatments for eating disorders. It specifically supports clients in changing unhelpful thoughts, behaviors, and patterns around food. At Flora & Associates, clients experiencing eating disorders are matched with a highly trained clinician with the level of expertise to best meet their specific needs.

Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorde

Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder – also known as ARFID – is an eating disorder characterized by extreme picky eating. It consists of limited food intake or avoidance of certain foods, due to sensory sensitivities, fear of choking or vomiting, or a lack of interest in eating. Unlike other eating disorders, ARFID is not driven by body image concerns. ARFID can lead to significant weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, and difficulties with daily functioning. ARFID often begins in childhood and treatment typically focuses on increasing food variety, improving nutrition, and addressing the underlying fears or sensory challenges that contribute to restricted eating. Our team has worked with many children experiencing symptoms of ARFID. Not only do we support the child, but also empower their parents to have the tools and skills to manage the challenges at home.

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is an evidence-based therapeutic approach commonly used to treat OCD and eating disorders. ERP helps individuals gradually face feared situations, thoughts, or feelings by engaging in exposure work, while reducing or stopping the safety behaviors or compulsions they typically use to cope (response prevention). Over time, repeated exposure without engaging in the previous coping behaviors decreases anxiety, increases tolerance to discomfort, and helps retrain the brain to understand that the feared outcomes are less dangerous than they feel. At Flora & Associates our team supports our clients with OCD by utilizing this gold standard in OCD treatment.

Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Obsessive- Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition where intrusive thoughts or fears (obsessions) create significant anxiety. This often leads a person to perform repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) to feel temporary relief. These cycles can become overwhelming and interfere with daily activities. At Flora & Associates, our team can help clients work through their intrusive thoughts and compulsions by utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) by gradually facing their fears to help reduce the urge to complete compulsions. Our team can teach clients how to utilize coping skills, gain a sense of control, and hold confidence in managing their OCD symptoms.
