Ever wondered if there's a secret formula to raising smarter kids? Well, it turns out the answer might be simpler than you think.

Research shows that children raised by nurturing parents develop higher IQs. And we're not talking about a small boost—these kids score an average of 6 points higher on IQ tests!

Research finds that inadequate sleep in childhood significantly increases the risk of developing emotional disorders later in life.

The impact of poor sleep on emotional well-being is profound, altering both negative and positive emotional experiences.

For instance, after just two nights of poor sleep, children cannot derive the same pleasure from positive experiences, and they struggle to recall these positive experiences later on.

Infidelity impacts your legacy and echoes through time. New research tells us that a tendency toward infidelity runs in families.

When children of Infidelity are aware of parental infidelity, they are much more likely to engage in infidelity as well.

Kids may not seem to hear you when you tell them to eat their vegetables, but when you and your spouse are fighting in front of the kids, your children are paying close attention.

This behavior impacts their immediate behavior and affects their mental health significantly.

Have you ever wondered why you're the way you are?

A recent study suggests we might share more personality traits with our parents than we previously thought, but it might matter far less than you can imagine…

I have worked with clients who wore the mantle of a “supermom” as a family badge of honor.

While others complain about flowing like a river to the point of exhaustion.

Couples therapy for infertility typically grapples with communication deficits, an impaired decision-making process, and issues with power dynamics and gender politics.

Couples who have crossed the medical threshold to avail themselves of all that medical science has to offer sometimes need to unpack their frustrations in couples therapy…

The largest-ever survey on the subject finds that almost 40% of people's first memories are fictional.

Most people's real, verifiable earliest memories date from around three-and-a-half years of age, scientists have found.

However, almost 40% of people claim to have memories from age two or younger, which is highly unlikely.

Older people are more likely to have these fictional early memories.

A recent German study has uncovered a significant link between parental political disengagement and the apathy their children feel towards politics.

This phenomenon appears to be particularly pronounced in close parent-child relationships. These findings shed light on the growing disinterest in politics observed in democracies worldwide…

Adult Children of Divorce suffer too.

There is a robust cultural belief that adult children, once successfully launched, should be indifferent, or at the very worst, non·plussed by their parent’s divorce.

I encounter this belief in couples therapy regularly.

Emerging research explains that nothing could be further from the truth.

Research suggests that parents who let their children take the lead in easy or moderately difficult tasks help them develop self-regulation skills and independence, contributing to their success later in life.

As Stanford University professor Jelena Obradović explains, "Too much direct engagement can come at a cost to kids' abilities to control their own attention, behavior, and emotions."
