Katrinca Ford is a therapist who has been hugely helpful to our family and she is running a new parenting class starting soon.  We had more 1:1 help from her but the class looks like it covers a lot of what we learned from her.  https://mailchi.mp/familyplaytherapy/knowyourchild

I highly recommend Katrinca Ford.  Phone number (925) 831-1926 and website: familyplaytherapy.com.

She has worked with children with incarcerated parents and developed some training materials on the topic for teacher and mental heath staff at Head Start in Contra Costa County while I was working there.

RE: Violent but Loving 3 yr old

Hi Nicki, Sounds you know you and your little boy need help but you are not sure where to turn next. I highly recommend that you give Katrinca Ford a call. Katrinca is a therapist who specializes in work with pre-school age children and families. I know her because before she was a therapist she co-founded the preschool of which I am now the director. Katrinca continues to consult with the school on behavioral issues and early childhood mental health, and was very helpful in more than one challenging situation. I have seen Katrinca in action many times and know her to be both insightful and compassionate. She communicates well with both children and adults. Katrinca will work closely with parents and school to make sure your child's needs for love, understanding and limits are being met in both settings. Here phone # is (925) 831-1926. Good luck Sheri
