Ask Dr. Annie Abram

United States, EnglishParents

Our show is an open conversation about mindful parenting, finding your voice as a parent, and feeling competent in this role. Parenting is a relationship, not a set of rules. It gives us the opportunity of a lifetime: to re-write our own life narrative. On our show we talk about developing a deeper understanding of ourselves in order to better understand our children. This show is hosted by Annie Abram, Ph.D. a licensed psychotherapist with a practice in Norwalk, CT. She has over twenty five years of clinical experience. Over the course of the last ten years, Dr. Abram has led numerous parenting groups for first-time mothers as well as for parents of young children and adolescents in New York City and Connecticut.
