Second lecture: The Emotionally Balanced Parent - Nafisa Sekandari, Psy.D. Given the diverse ethnic and cultural nature of Muslims within the Muslim community, parenting can be a challenge for those integrating home culture with the mainstream culture in the United States. Many parents struggle with proper parenting of their children due to lack of appropriate role modeling or emotional support from their environments. This parenting presentation aims to focus on empowering the parent with the tools they need to improve their skills and ability through the understanding of their own strengths and weaknesses and address overall mental healthiness within the parent first.
