Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I love working with parents. I am a parent myself, and without support, I am not sure how the role of parent is manageable. I have extensive experience working with new parents, parents of neurodivergent children (specifically autism and ADHD), parents navigating advocating for support for their children, lesbian parents, queer parents, trans parents, parents who have lost a sense of identity outside of parenthood, navigating parenting with careers, and navigating parenting with illness.

Catherine DeMonte, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA., LMFT
Our children do not come with a manual when they are born. And we may very well NOT want to parent as we ourselves were parented. So, WHAT then? Knowing some important developmental stages our children go through can be helpful. This can help normalize some of their behavior for us.
Learning how to effectively but kindly direct and discipline our children is also paramount. And learning how to speak to our kids so that we are heard but they are as well, thereby keeping battles at bay are a few of the very many issues I help parents with.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Parenting can activate some of our deepest hopes—and our deepest triggers. I support parents who want to respond to their children with greater calm, connection, and confidence. Using attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and developmental models, we explore how your own early experiences may shape present parenting patterns.
Together, we work with the parts of you that feel overwhelmed, reactive, guilty, or unsure, while strengthening your capacity for steady, attuned leadership. The goal is not perfection, but secure attachment—helping your child feel safe, seen, and supported while you feel grounded and empowered.

Jaclyn Epstein-Calvert
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but it can also feel overwhelming, especially when children are experiencing big emotions, behavioral challenges, or developmental differences. I work with parents who want to better understand their child’s emotional world while also finding more confidence and calm in their parenting.
My approach integrates attachment-based therapy and neuroscience-informed perspectives to help parents understand their child’s behavior through a developmental and nervous system lens. Together, we explore practical strategies that support emotional regulation, strengthen parent-child connection, and reduce family stress. I also support parents raising neurodivergent children, including those with ADHD or autism, helping families create environments where children feel understood, supported, and able to thrive.

Laura Fleming
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting is one of the most meaningful and demanding roles a person can take on. I work with parents who feel overwhelmed, anxious, burned out, suffering from relentless "mom guilt," or unsure if they’re doing “enough.” I believe that supporting parents is one of the most powerful ways to shape resilient, healthy children. Through emotionally focused and evidence-based work, I help parents care for themselves, clarify their values, strengthen their relationships, and create healthier patterns that positively impact themselves and their children.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological demands of parenting, including those parenting alone or alongside other significant pressures. Parenting often brings long-standing patterns into sharper focus, affecting identity, relationships, boundaries, and how people respond under stress.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how parenting experiences interact with internal expectations, responsibilities, and emotional load. Rather than focusing on parenting techniques, sessions centre on understanding how you are impacted by the role and how different parts of you respond to it. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Karen Petren
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Being a parent is really tough. We all need a helping hand sometimes. As an experienced psychotherapist and a parent of a challenging young adult myself, I have helped many families find peace and harmony in the face of mental illness, divorce, and addiction. I enjoy empowering parents to explore their own family background and adapt to what’s in front of them today. I specialize in working with ADHD, OCD, and neurodivergent teens and adults.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a parent is tough! You are constantly prioritizing the needs and demands of your little (or not so little) ones and don't often have time for yourself. Being a parent somehow can sometimes bring out our own unmet childhood needs (such as having emotionally unavailable parents ourselves) especially as we actively work to unlearn generational traumas. Perhaps you just need a safe space that's completely yours to just process life or to make space to fill your cup. Therapy with me can be the pause and reset you need to keep going.
