Parent coaching at CFC helps parents develop practical strategies and a deeper understanding of their child's brain and behavior. Drawing on the frameworks of Tina Payne Bryson's work (The Whole-Brain Child, No-Drama Discipline, The Power of Showing Up) and the science of interpersonal neurobiology, our coaches help you move from reacting to responding. Sessions are individualized to your child, your family, and your specific questions. For parents of younger children, we also offer reflective parenting support, a specialized practice that helps parents become compassionate detectives, looking beneath the surface of behavior to understand what their child is expressing and how to co-regulate and connect.
We prioritize the therapeutic relationship as the vehicle for change and growth.
Every approach is grounded in the latest neuroscience research and IPNB framework.
We match you with the right practitioner based on your unique needs and goals.
CFC's occupational therapy team provides brain-based, neuro-affirming OT across the lifespan, working in two full-sensory gyms at our Pasadena and Duarte locations. Our bottom-up approach starts with the nervous system: behavior is communication, and lasting change comes from building foundational skills rather than targeting surface behaviors. We work with sensory processing differences, fine and gross motor development, self-regulation, writing difficulties, and daily living skills. Our ABA-alternative model emphasizes relationship, identity, and genuine belonging. Services include full evaluations, sensori-motor evaluations, writing evaluations, and one-to-one treatment.
Play therapy at CFC uses the natural language of children to help kids ages 3-12 process emotions, build resilience, and work through challenges. Our Registered Play Therapists create a safe, consistent relationship where children can express their inner world and grow.
