Our experts have a range of certifications - we have PhD's, mater's level educators with degrees in child development, PsyDs, BCBAs, LMFTs (to name a few). While the state by state laws are changing all the time, the restrictions

Some of our best coaches are BCBAs with expertise in ASD. They have such a wonderful understanding of children and behavior, and this can extend to all children. :) As Tom mentioned, we take great care not to replace the very important in

I think broadly, the challenge with parenting books is that they sometimes put forth a particular philosophy or approach (some are more neutral and inclusive than others). So, I think it really depends what you are looking for, what your p

I should also say, we have been really cautious not to bring on too many providers. We have people who are interested, but we are on boarding professionals in response to demand (rather than a ton of people up front). We do stay ahead with

Thanks for your comment! It seems some companies have a spam filter on our site that blocks our sign-up and payment sections. Perhaps try on your phone (off a work network). There should be a sign-up flow right away (try this, which might

We think there is a great opportunity to learn about efficacy in child development and parenting practices here, and are very excited by the potential that brings!

Lots of great thoughts here, thank you for sharing them. The line between parent support and parent coaching and behavioral health requires great care in navigation - I agree with you. Before I started Trustle, I worked both as a child ps

I absolutely appreciate this perspective! And, in fact, I agree with you. The aim isn't to diagnose kids or "fix" anything. And we certainly don't want parents to feel like this ads pressure. We want to take the pres

One of the reasons I started Trustle was because I had a TON of parents seeking out my support for everyday parenting challenge that would not normally want to make an appointment. In some cases potty training regressions are a great fit f

All of our experts are in the United States partially because I have a firm understanding of the various licenses and credentialing they hold, which isn't consistent across countries. Our team of experts is truly amazing! I would lov
