Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
I know you love your child more than anything, and I also know that in addition to being infinitely rewarding, being a parent can also be pretty dang hard. Balancing your own needs with the needs of everyone else who relies on you is not an easy task. I help parents with parenting techniques and improving the parent-child relationship, but my main focus is emotional support. I firmly believe that in order to take care of others, we must take care of ourselves. The kinder and more patient you are with yourself, the more kind and patient you can be with your child - and the more you can model for your child how they can be good to themselves. You are already doing an amazing job, let's work together to decrease conflict in the home and increase the well-being of you, your child, and your family.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anytime we work with a child, we want to work with the parent, not because the parent might be doing something wrong, but because as a parent you have the single greatest influence in your child's life. Anything that goes from me to your child just is not nearly as effective as anything that goes from you to your child. So we partner with the parents and the child and utilize a collaborative plan.

Stephanie A. Carson
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.S., LMFT
Parenting is the hardest job you will ever do - and it doesn't come with a clear, concise instruction manual! By utilizing positive parenting techniques and attachment models, I assist parents in creating a healthy relationship with their children that is realistic and makes sense.

Ms. Carol Jean Timmons
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
From my own experience of parenting and grand parenting comes a heart for parents to learn how to effectively deal with their children! Never before in history has there been so much information available on the subject of parenting! And never before has there been so much confusion on the part of parents as to how best to parent - especially in this era of social media! We tend to replicate or react to the parenting we received as children. But there are tested and proven principles of parenting that can help parents learn the art and skill of dealing effectively with their children. Our goal is to raise responsible adults, not just obedient children.

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.

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.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I have many years of experience supporting parents in their journeys, from pregnancy, through raising your children into adults. I have worked with clients of all ages of development and have previously worked as the Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool in Oakland, CA. In that role, I worked with young children and their parents in therapy, supported teachers in understanding implications of mental health in children and families from the earliest stages, and also supervised other mental health providers in the process. I am a parent myself and understand the immense job and opportunity this life stage entails as well as the challenges that can come. I have a particular expertise in parenting neurodivergent children/adolescents from a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with parents at all stages, from early childhood through adolescence, helping them navigate the often complex and evolving challenges of raising children. Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but also demanding, and many parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stretched in ways they didn’t anticipate.
My approach focuses on helping parents better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs, while also making space for their own experience. I work collaboratively to strengthen connection, improve communication, and address patterns that may be contributing to conflict or stress within the family.
I also bring particular sensitivity to parenting within adoptive, donor-conceived, and other non-traditional families, where additional layers of identity, communication, and connection may emerge over time.
Above all, I aim to support parents in feeling more confident, grounded, and effective—so they can show up for their children with both clarity and compassion.
