At competitions and the studio, emotions can sometimes run high! All of us dance parents have a different way of communicating and that can occasionally create conflict. How do we handle these difficult situations when they come up?! In this episode we were lucky enough to bring in clinical psychologist Elissa Hamlat to discuss how to resolve the conflicts we may experience. 

Elissa Hamlat is a licensed clinical psychologist with her PHD in Clinical Psychology. She currently is a faculty member at UCSF's Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.
