Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Parenting can be both deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. My approach to parent coaching is grounded in attachment theory and developmental science, with the belief that children's behaviors are meaningful expressions of their needs, emotions, and experiences. I work collaboratively with parents to better understand their child's unique temperament and developmental stage, strengthen connection, and develop practical strategies that support both the child and the parent-child relationship.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, LCSW
In the labyrinth of motherhood, many women find themselves navigating through its lesser-spoken, shadowy corridors, confronting the underworld of motherhood where challenges like role adjustment, traumatic births, breastfeeding struggles, and feelings of inadequacy and isolation loom large. My practice offers a beacon of support and understanding for mothers and stepmothers grappling with these harsh realities, providing a safe, compassionate space to voice and heal from the unanticipated trials of mothering. Beyond the immediate demands of parenthood, I delve into the emotional layers underpinning the journey, including the navigation of complex trauma, the healing of ancestral and mother wounds, and the spiritual dimensions of conception and fertility. Whether it's breaking the cycles of past traumas, reconciling with the emotional aftermath of pregnancy loss, or embarking on the sacred journey of connecting with one’s spirit baby, my approach is holistic, recognizing the profound interconnection between personal healing and nurturing life. I stand with those courageous enough to transform their shadows into strength, guiding them towards healing, belonging, and a deeper, more fulfilling experience of motherhood and stepmotherhood.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
“You won’t always get it right, but you’ll always have the chance to make it right. Parenting isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. It’s the daily act of showing up with love, patience, and grace, even when you’re exhausted or unsure. Every moment you choose connection over correction, you’re building something sacred: trust and unconditional love.”

Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting will be one of the most challenging events of your life -- often a life long journey. With today's stressful outside influences, parents are often confused about what to do or how to help their children. Children and teens are faced with options and decisions never before a part of childhood. Parents need helpful tools and ideas -- and how to be consistent in parenting.

Dr. Claire Vines, Psy.D., Psychologist / Licensed /Psychotherapy / Psychoanalytic/
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Parents are not always able to guess their children need. A major reason why children and adolescents often experience difficulty with developing individuality in their emotional growth, is the need for self-validation, self-expression and boundaries in discovering the difference in right & wrong.

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.

Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
For some reason, kids don't come with instruction manuals. Even the best parents struggle sometimes and could benefit from an objective guide through the ambiguous world of parenting, where there are almost never clear-cut answers to the tough questions. By talking with a professional you can learn to parent in a way that respects all parties and aligns with your values.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Parenting can be a challenging task no matter the age of the child. Often, I have seen clients with parenting dilemmas with their adult children. Although the style of parenting tasks might look a little different between the minor and adult children, the principles of parenting education/skills are similar. Parents tend to fall into the pitfall of sacrificing too much of themselves or not knowing what is the right or best thing to do for their children's development as they focus on meeting children's requested needs. With the right professional help, there are ways to provide for the children's needs safely while cultivating healthy, respectful, and sustainable parent-child relationships.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While I do not have specialized training in this subject, I am a parent myself and understand the challenges of balancing personal needs, romantic needs, and showing up for your children. Parenting can also bring up memories or even trauma from our own childhood that hasn't been fully processed. Through understanding your own childhood, you can ensure you break any cycles of patterns so it does not interfere with your parenting moving forward.

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.
