Parenting
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Parenting is one of the most rewarding and most challenging roles an adult can take on — and yet it is one of the areas where people are least likely to ask for help. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I work with parents navigating parenting stress, child behavioral challenges, co-parenting conflict, blended family dynamics, parenting after divorce, and the emotional weight of raising children through difficult seasons. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and solution-focused intervention, I help parents develop practical tools, healthier communication patterns, and greater confidence in their role. Telehealth parenting therapy available across 40+ states.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Parenting is both deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. Even the most loving parents can feel overwhelmed, unsure, or discouraged when their child’s needs or behaviors seem difficult to manage. I specialize in helping parents understand the “why” behind their child’s emotions and behaviors, develop effective communication and discipline strategies, and restore a sense of confidence and calm within the family.
My work with parents often focuses on navigating developmental changes, improving parent–child relationships, and managing challenges such as anxiety, defiance, emotional regulation difficulties, and family transitions. For parents raising children with unique emotional or behavioral needs, therapy offers tools for setting appropriate limits while maintaining empathy and connection.
When co-parenting after divorce or separation, I provide structured support to help parents maintain consistency, reduce conflict, and protect children from adult stressors. I also assist foster, adoptive, and blended families as they navigate attachment and identity issues that can surface throughout a child’s development.
Grounded in cognitive-behavioral and family systems approaches, sessions focus on increasing emotional awareness, enhancing communication, and promoting a calmer, more connected family environment. My goal is to help parents feel equipped, supported, and empowered to raise resilient, emotionally secure children—while also caring for themselves in the process.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in parenting issues, my approach is founded on collaboration, empathy, and evidence-based interventions. Through a combination of parent education, coaching, and family therapy, I support parents in navigating challenges and fostering healthy relationships with their children. By providing a safe space to explore parenting styles, communication patterns, and family dynamics, I help parents gain insight into their strengths and areas for growth. Together, we develop practical strategies to address behavior management, enhance parent-child interactions, and promote positive development. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care and stress management techniques to support parents in navigating the demands of parenthood effectively. My goal is to empower parents with the tools and confidence they need to cultivate nurturing and resilient family.

Parenting
Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

Meghan Luse
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCPC
Parenting frequently brings our own unhealed attachment wounds to the surface. It is difficult to co-regulate with your child when your own nervous system feels overwhelmed. Operating from an attachment-based framework, I work with parents to explore how their past experiences influence their current parenting dynamics, helping them find the internal groundedness needed to build secure connections with their children.

Dr. Kimberlyann Marsden
Psychologist
Parenting is a journey where parents often feel like they need a roadmap to navigate the challenges that can arise. I work with parents and families to understand what their particular concerns and issues are. Then, I customize treatment to help them resolve those issues. I give very clear, practical solutions to enhance family relationships and harmony. Small changes in communication, boundaries, expectations often lead to major positive shift in family dynamics. Another part of working with parents is providing them the support they need as an individual so they can continue to remain healthy and strong while functioning as a parent.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Parenting is one of the most rewarding journeys life can offer—but it can also be incredibly isolating, overwhelming, and exhausting. Whether you are navigating the intense identity shifts of the postpartum period, struggling with the daily invisible load of raising a family, or facing deep professional and parental burnout, Anne provides a warm, non-judgmental, and deeply collaborative space just for you. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C), she partners with mothers, fathers, and caregivers to build the emotional resilience needed to show up for their children without losing themselves.
Anne’s integrative approach goes beyond standard parenting advice. By combining traditional psychotherapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps parents regulate their own nervous systems, manage reactive parenting triggers, and process the anxiety or depression that often flies under the radar. Whether you are navigating a difficult family transition, dealing with parental grief, or balancing parenting alongside a chronic illness or medical diagnosis, Anne is dedicated to helping you develop practical coping strategies to move from a state of survival to one of connection and calm.

Debra Zand
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting therapy helps parents identify, address, and manage their own past or present experiences that may be affecting the way they relate to their child. In some cases, parenting therapy may also help parents better communicate between each other to maintain a cohesive and structured parenting approach. Parenting therapy provides a judgement-free zone for parents to discuss tough moments in parenting and learn how to better manage these tough moments moving forward. Overall, parenting therapy aims to provide parents with the necessary knowledge, tools, guidance, and support to take care of themselves and their children in the most ideal way possible.
