In an interview with Real Simple (via Daily Mail), the actress, 42, revealed she does therapy sessions with her daughter Honor
She shared that she decided to seek help when 'Honor was probably 11, and we were arguing all the time about dumb stuff.'
Jessica recalled: 'I was like, I don’t want to live like this. This is not fun. I didn’t want us to have a wedge between us.'
She explained: 'As her mother, when I say something, she’s going to hear it as an argument or as me trying to control her. I wanted there to be someone who could explain things in a way I couldn’t.'
Said she: 'What I said to Honor was: "I want to be a better parent to you, and this is your forum to basically talk about everything that gets on your nerves that I do."'
'I just wanted to get to that point, and it worked. And the therapist allowed me to see that it’s natural for kids to disagree with their parents, and as a parent it’s not always about being right or rational in that moment,' the home goods mogul spilled. 'I’m not gonna front, it’s a process and I’m not perfect.'
