Best Child Psychologist South Bend Near Me

Trey Duckett: I have spent some time working with Dr. John Petersen and the other clinicians at Family Psychology. They are some of the most genuine and caring people you will ever meet. The entire practice has a focus on helping families, couples, and individuals through research driven approaches and practices. They make sure people get the best quality care. Lastly, they have a heart for this community and the families living in it. I'm sure if you come to Family Psychology, you will experience the same!

Eric Oglesbee: A turning point in our family's life was when we began seeing the therapists at Family Psychology. Their staff helped us navigate difficult parenting situations over the course of multiple years, giving us actionable tools which we use daily. Every person we've worked with has been kind, thoughtful, professional, helpful, knowledgable, and deeply caring. I hate to think what our family life would be like right now if it weren't for John, Sharon, and their amazing team.

Jodi Briner: I would not recommend Jennifer Carter. She lacks compassion, empathy, and understanding. She is unorganized and unhelpful. Last but not least, Jennifer will kick you when you are already down.

Daniel Driscoll: As Head of School at Good Shepherd Montessori School, I've worked with John Petersen and Sharon Bain for many years, as they are our educational and developmental consultants. I have full confidence in their work with children, families, and our staff. Their insights into the human person, their collaborative approach, their respect for the abilities of the child, and their problem-solving skills have served the school well, and have consistently produced positive results.

B T: Dr. Petersen provided me with great resources and steps to take before we were able to see him. He made sure that things progressed before we even met. It was evident he valued our welfare. We felt like we were a priority to him. I would highly recommend Family Psychology.

Joanna Want: Sharon Bain is a great resource for parents in the South Bend area. She has helped me understand positive parenting in a way that I could not have gotten simply from reading books. She has a kind, open demeanor and is focused on concrete problem-solving, while also helping parents keep in the mind the big picture, which is raising kind, cooperative, and resourceful children.

Heather Glenn: We have been working with Sharon Bain throughout our son's preschool years. This past year, we've had the opportunity to attend her monthly discussions focused on Winning Your Child's Cooperation. Sharon is always very kind and understanding of every situation and has offered us many tools that have not only made parenting our active and sensitive children easier, but have also been useful in enhancing positive relationships with our children. These meetings have often served as gentle reminders to incorporate positive parenting approaches into the hectic morning routines or generally throughout the day when we find ourselves pushed to our breaking points. We are so grateful for everything she has done for our family.

Kiernan Cressy Anzelc: I have referred six families to Dr. Petersen and each one of them was as impressed as we have been. We have found Dr. Petersen to be wise, insightful, and effective in addressing and resolving issues. During a particularly challenging period in parenting he even gave me his cell phone number and consulted with me during an early morning crisis. Two of the families I referred have since sought marital counseling and both report feeling that it was a turning point in their relationships. He is a dedicated professional and committed to helping families and couples. We are fortunate to have a resource like him in South Bend.
