Making the Case (Part Three) | Practice Makes Progress, Not Perfect!

Often with parenting, we find ourselves too close to an issue within our families to figure out a solution. Although we may know what we need to do, we may find it challenging to follow through. This was the case for Miranda and her husband, Mark. Even though Miranda herself is a family therapist with a thriving practice, she knew she needed expert guidance to get her family on a better path. So Miranda and Mark contacted EFC.
