Hosted by Dr. Todd Corelli, a clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience, each episode tackles real-life challenges faced by parents, from tantrums and defiance to screen time, sibling rivalry, and emotional regulation, and turns them into opportunities for growth.
If you’re a parent who feels worn out from daily behavioral battles or unsure how to truly reach your child, these episodes are for you. Dr. Todd shares proven, down-to-earth strategies drawn from decades of working with families to help even the most difficult kids succeed.
Each episode blends science, stories, and solutions, giving you tools you can start using today. You’ll hear insights on what really drives your child’s behavior, practical tips for building connection and confidence, and simple ways to bring calm back into your home.
Parents love Dr. Todd Talks because it’s honest, encouraging, and actionable, not another highlight reel or lecture. It’s about helping real families find hope, humor, and harmony again.
Working with Todd is like working with a trusted friend who understands that our intentions may be good, but sometimes our behaviors as parents are misguided. So he seems to have the ability to ask just the right questions, to help us understand ourselves better and to be able to see and hear our children more clearly. I would recommend him highly.

Watch this video to learn how to stop becoming an enemy to your child’s conscience and start becoming the safe place they turn to when they mess up. The shift isn’t more control. It’s reclaiming the influence you already have.

In this video, I walk through why your child’s memory doesn’t match yours, what’s really going on beneath the surface, and the one shift that changes everything. I’ll show you exactly what to say instead of defending yourself—and why that approach actually opens the door to reconnection.

This video gives you the only path to reconciliation. We explore why adult children cut off their parents to stop the pain, and the three non-negotiable things a parent must do to rebuild trust and create safety. This is your guide to understanding why they walked away and how to get them back.

When an adult child cuts off a parent, it rarely comes out of nowhere. It’s usually the final stage of a long, painful pattern that could have been repaired years earlier. In this video, I walk through why so many estrangements happen, what keeps them going, and what actually helps parents rebuild a relationship that feels lost.

In this episode, I’ll share the story of two brothers who grew up hating each other and how it shaped their entire adult lives. You’ll also learn what healthy sibling conflict looks like, what crosses the line into emotional harm, and the steps you can take to help your kids rebuild trust and connection.
