Dr. Laura Markham trained as a Clinical Psychologist at Columbia University, but she's also a mom, so she understands kids -- and parents! She uses her Ph.D. to translate proven science and child-development research into the practical solutions you need for the family life you want.
She is the author of three best-selling books that continue to rack up 5 star reviews, attesting to the power of her relationship-based approach to parenting. They have been translated into 25 languages:
