Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LCMHC, NCC, BC-TMH, PMH-C
You carry the decisions, needs, and expectations of everyone around you, often with no room to breathe. Therapy helps you lighten the mental load, quiet guilt and self-doubt, and build boundaries so parenting feels more grounded, manageable, and sustainable.

Whether you’re navigating daily stress, challenges with your child, or questions about how you want to show up as a parent, therapy offers a space to reflect and find steadiness. Together, we’ll explore patterns, expectations, and emotional responses, helping you respond more thoughtfully and build a relationship with your child that feels more connected and sustainable.

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.

Dr. Sharon Herzog
Psychologist, PsyD
Many of my clients struggle with the emotional demands that come with being a parent. It doesn’t matter if their children are young or fully grown, being a parent is a constant source of fear and love and major focus of one’s emotional well-being.

Dr. David Ransen
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT, CHt
Parents with challenging kids generally have no need of conventional therapy. Instead, they need only to better understand that kids think, feel, and behave very differently from adults. In a very short time, parents who learn how best to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior see remarkable and lasting changes in their kids' behavior. One simple lesson is among the most powerful: Praise, gratitude and reward for good behavior work wonders, but punishment is neither needed nor helpful. Kids learn just two lessons from punishment. First, they learn to be angry and resentful of whomever punished them. Second, they learn to be more and more clever and sneaky, so that they can continue misbehaving without getting caught. Parents who learn these simple effects of reward and punishment see almost immediate positive changes in their kids' behavior. These changes make kids happier, and dramatically lower the risks of drug use, teen pregnancy, poor grades, and early-morning calls from kids in jail.

John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT MACP LPCC
Parenting is every word you can imagine, but clients very rarely want to discuss how well their kids are doing. In working with children and being a parent, I know first hand the stressors and trials of parenting. My special sauce is teaching you how to communicate with your child so they listen, and teach you how to listen so you can communicate. Learn to recognize triggers and move through into the world soothed, secure and safe.

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.”

Jamie Roach
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, MDiv, NCC
Parenting is deeply meaningful—and deeply demanding. I support parents who feel overwhelmed, reactive, or disconnected, helping them return to presence rather than perfection. Our work focuses on emotional regulation, communication, and building secure, attuned relationships with your children—so parenting becomes less about control and more about connection.

Robin Renucci
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, Ed.S, M.Ed, LPC, NCC
Parenting can be one of the most rewarding—and most challenging—roles we take on. I work with parents who are navigating the emotional, behavioral, and developmental complexities of raising children, whether they're in the early years, adolescence, or somewhere in between.
With a background in school counseling and years of clinical experience, I offer a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can explore parenting concerns such as communication struggles, discipline, co-parenting, school-related challenges, and emotional regulation—for both your child and yourself. My approach emphasizes practical tools, emotional insight, and a deeper understanding of your child’s needs and your own parenting style.
Together, we work to strengthen your confidence, deepen your connection with your child, and develop strategies that support a more peaceful, balanced home environment.

St. Petersburg has undergone rapid transformation as an arts and culture hub, attracting young creatives, LGBTQ+ residents, and a growing tech community, and therapists here frequently work with identity exploration, life transitions, and the pressures of building an unconventional career in a mid-size city. The city has a well-established LGBTQ+ community centered around the Grand Central District, and affirming therapists are well represented relative to the city's size. St. Anthony's Hospital and Bayfront Health St. Petersburg provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private practice community. Many St. Pete therapists serve clients across the wider Tampa Bay area, making the region's therapeutic resources interconnected regardless of which side of the bay clients live on.
