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.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting is not for the faint of heart! It often brings up unexpected emotions, fears and our own childhood experiences-good and bad. Whether as an adjunct service to your child's service or part of your own therapy process, I use an attachment based model to help you explore and understand how your history and experiences shape parenting values and practices, increase understanding of developmental needs and expectations, and learn strategies to improve connection and relationship functioning.

Jessica Torres Kreidt
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, NCC, CCTP (CA: LPCC#17935)
I believe in the importance of collaboration because there is no such thing as 'just a child'—there is always a child and the relationships that surround them. That’s why I work closely with parents when supporting children and teens, ensuring a holistic approach to their care. Together, we discuss treatment goals and progress, fostering a supportive environment that nurtures the well-being of the young individuals. This partnership strengthens the effectiveness of therapy, promoting positive growth and development to help children and teens thrive both in and out of therapy.

I specialize in "mindful parenting" with tools and techniques to practice patience, understanding, empathy and compassion first for how we as parents get triggered and react from what we know from our own upbringing.
