Parenting: The Ultimate Systemic Challenge
Moving from Survival to Connection
Parenting is perhaps the most profound "attachment laboratory" we will ever enter. It has the power to bring up our greatest joys and our deepest "ghosts" from the past. In my practice, I move beyond standard "behavioral tips" to help parents understand the relational system at play. Whether you are navigating the "toddler years," the "teen years," or the complex transition into adult-child relationships, I provide a space to parent with intention rather than reactivity.
Navigating the Modern Parenting System
Today’s parents are facing unprecedented levels of burnout and overwhelmed by "expert" advice. We work together to find your voice in the noise, addressing:
The "Parental Melt Down": Understanding the neurobiology of why we "flip our lids" and learning somatic tools to stay within your Window of Tolerance when your child is out of theirs.
Neurodivergent Parenting: Providing specialized support for parents of neurodivergent children, or for neurodivergent parents themselves, navigating sensory overstimulation and executive functioning demands.
The Cycle of Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing how our own childhood wounds can make a child’s natural independence feel like a personal rejection.
A Research-Backed, Heart-Centered Approach
With over 20 years of experience and a PhD in Child and Family Studies, I integrate high-level theory with practical, everyday application:
Attachment-Based Parenting: Using Attachment Theory to move away from "power struggles" and toward a secure base where your child feels seen, safe, and soothed.
Systems Theory & Family Dynamics: We look at the "hidden" roles everyone plays in the family. How does the stress in the marriage, the workplace, or the social system impact the child’s behavior?
Parenting through Transition: Supporting families through the "big shifts"—divorce, moving, new siblings, or spiritual deconstruction—ensuring the family bond remains resilient.
Supporting the "Helper" Parent
I have a deep commitment to working with therapists and pastors as parents. It is uniquely difficult to hold space for others all day and then come home to the raw, unfiltered demands of a family. I provide a confidential sanctuary where you can take off the "expert" hat and find the support you need to be the parent you want to be.

Barbara Magnusson Coffee
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LMFT
Positive parenting can make all the difference in both the stress level a parent feels and in how healthy a child turns out. No one came with a manual, but there is research supported evidence of what is helpful and what is not.

Summit Counseling Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, ATR-BC
Parenting is so complex these days! While we do not offer specific training in parenting, we offer individual and couples counseling that can support your parenting goals and can allow for stress relief and healthy coping with the complexities of parenting. Quite often, parenting is a huge daily stressor which can be made easier with supportive counseling.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
One of the most important aspects of our work is affecting future generations. A couple’s ability to work well together directly touches their children in a profound way. After even a few months of work together we see couples feeling relief in their parenting together, their children feeling better because they feel better, and the whole family system living harmoniously together. Not only do we help couples develop intimacy, better understand one another, and breathe air and life into their relationship, but we facilitate this in their parenting styles as well.
And parenting is not for the faint of heart! We understand that the well-being of your children is unspeakably important to you and we’re also able to help you through developmental milestones, better understanding how to handle the inevitable rough spots presented to you as they grow.
If you’re in the process of divorcing, co-parenting can be one of the largest challenges. Your children give you the noblest reason to work on issues with your ex. Divorce doesn’t have to be traumatic for your kids, even if it has been for you and your partner. There are definite and concrete ways to support and guide your children through this difficult season. Being supported by a therapist can also provide a venue to safely air grievances and suss them out without fear that your fight will spill over into your parenting or ruin your week. Separation and divorce has no end to frustrations and hurts, even without children in the mix. Add your kids and it becomes almost unbearably heartbreaking and complex. We will help you navigate these rough waters for as long as you might need.

Monica Buttafava
Counselor/Therapist, M.S., LMHC
No parent is perfect, and parenting can be an exhausting and challenging job, although rewarding and fulfilling at the same time.
Parent-child relationships have a powerful impact on a child's emotional well-being and self-regulating behavior, problem-solving, and creation of healthy social connections.
Parents can empower their children to succeed in life by offering predictable care, being sensitive to their needs, and being emotionally responsive to their affects.
Professional therapists may help parents navigate conflicts and learn how to use strategies to improve their understanding and balance.

Dr. Howard Chusid
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, LMHC, NCC, MAC
I also have a certification as a Parenting Coordinator. I work with parents, who have difficulty working with their spouses and former spouses. I try to instill an understanding of what is taking place and how it will effect their children. I also try to demonstrate and teach the appropriate behaviors. Even though many parents will be living separate life's, they need to learn how to communicate appropriately so their children will not follow the same anti-social behavior as they grow.

Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Raising humans can be tough work! No matter the age or stage of development, there can be challenges in parenting. This is especially difficult if you're parenting a child who is neurodivergent or who has disabilities. Sometimes parents cannot agree on effective strategies. As a parenting expert, I can offer some insight on managing disruptive behaviors and raising emotionally mature kids.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in partnering with parents, caregivers, nannies, and educators to develop customized strategies that promote success both at home and in school. Recognizing the critical role families play in fostering growth and well-being, I emphasize collaboration, open communication, and shared decision-making to create individualized plans that address each child’s unique needs.
In addition to offering general parenting guidance, I provide evidence-based parent training programs, such as Parent Management Training (PMT) to learn effective strategies to reduce behavioral challenges and support positive change for your child, RUBI Parent Training to help manage behavioral challenges and support developmental progress for autistic children, and SPACE to help parents reduce your child’s anxiety by changing how you respond. My approach empowers families with practical tools and strategies to address a wide range of concerns related to autism, ADHD, and other developmental disabilities. Whether navigating challenging behaviors, improving daily routines, or enhancing social-emotional skills, my goal is to strengthen family dynamics and promote positive outcomes.
I also offer family therapy to help improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships within the household. By addressing family dynamics and fostering understanding, my work supports healthier interactions and greater resilience for both children and adults.
Through a compassionate, strengths-based approach, I strive to build strong partnerships that empower parents and caregivers to feel confident and supported every step of the way.

Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Parenting can be one of life's most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many parents find themselves balancing the desire to raise emotionally healthy children while navigating their own stress, relationships, cultural values, and family expectations. Whether you are struggling with behavioural concerns, communication difficulties, co-parenting challenges, parenting through separation, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, therapy can provide support and guidance.
At Min & Mind, we recognize that parenting does not happen in isolation. Our own childhood experiences, cultural backgrounds, and family dynamics often influence how we approach parenting today. We help parents better understand their children, strengthen connection, navigate conflict with confidence, and develop parenting strategies that align with their values. Our goal is to support families in creating relationships built on trust, understanding, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Parenting often brings up your own history, triggers, and fears about “getting it wrong.” I help parents understand their child’s behavior through a nervous‑system and attachment lens, respond with more regulation and consistency, and parent in ways that align with your values rather than just repeating old patterns.
