Pediatricians often recommend some mental health counseling for children who have behavior problems like defiance and tantrums. But counseling can be hard to find. Children are much more likely to get help if the counselor is right there in the doctor’s office, a study finds.The children in the study had behavior problems.Parenting counseling is a multi-fold approach and multi-step process. Results cannot be expected immediately, although some respond to the programs within a few days or weeks.
