Justin Parker, PhD, Clinical Director

Dr. Parker received his master’s degree and PhD in school psychology from North Carolina State University. Prior to joining 3-C Family Services, Dr. Parker completed a pre-doctoral internship at the Duke Child and Family Studies Center and has also worked in the Wake County Public School System in North Carolina. He has worked extensively with parents and children and adolescents with special needs in the areas of academic/school difficulties, disruptive behaviors and ADHD. His child-centered therapy is aimed at ensuring child/adolescent buy-in and conveys the message that his role is to work with the child/adolescent rather than dictate to them what they are to do. By working with parents in addition to their children, Dr. Parker is able to problem solve difficulties they are experiencing with their child/adolescent and provide concrete strategies that can be used in the home, including the presentation and practice of behavior management strategies. In addition, he often serves as an educational advocate by working with parents and school systems to ensure children are put in the most advantageous situation possible to maximize their school-based potential. Dr. Parker’s experience in the school systems put him in a favorable position to collaborate with teachers in designing and implementing interventions for children and adolescents.

Dr. Parker has also served as a Research Associate with 3-C Family Services’ sister company, 3-C Institute, since 2006. His primary research interests are aimed at examining the academic achievement of public school students, the prevention of behavior and social difficulties in childhood and adolescence, and interventions aimed at re-mediating children who currently have behavioral or social difficulties. Dr. Parker has helped develop and evaluate the effectiveness of educational interventions for children and families, many of which are now being used across the United States in both school systems and in private clinic settings.
