Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Parenting can bring immense joy, but it can also create stress, conflict, exhaustion, and shifts in relationship dynamics and decimate sexual connection. Couples may struggle with differences in parenting styles, values, division of responsibilities, or maintaining emotional connection while caring for children. Gottman Method couples therapy helps parents strengthen their partnership by improving communication, increasing teamwork, and creating a more supportive and connected family environment. Therapy provides space to navigate parenting disagreements with greater understanding and respect while also prioritizing the health of the couple relationship. By building stronger emotional connection and collaborative problem-solving skills, couples can feel more united and resilient in the challenges of parenting together.

Peg Roberts
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I work with parents of adult children who have trouble knowing when to step in and when to step out of their child's life. It's a balancing act. But learning healthy boundaries can help alleviate anxiety, worry or fear as adult children make decisions for themselves and their families. It's a great relief.

Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand the profound impact a child's challenging behavior can have on the entire family. It strains parental relationships and takes an emotional toll on daily interactions with your child. The journey might feel overwhelming, but there is hope!
As a nationally certified provider of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I specialize in bringing about transformative changes in children's behaviors, turning family dynamics from stress-ridden to harmonious. I’m committed to assisting families facing challenges such as tantrums, oppositionality, defiance, and aggression.
What sets PCIT apart is its proven effectiveness, backed by over 30 years of research. It's not just a treatment; it's a powerful solution designed for children grappling with behavioral and emotional difficulties. The "secret sauce" lies in the live coaching sessions, where I’ll support you, implementing PCIT tools in real-time. The in the moment feedback empowers parents to quickly master skills that results in tangible improvements in their child's behavior.
Break free from the cycle of stress and tears! Contact me today for a free consult to explore how the PCIT program can bring lasting positive changes and a happier, healthier family life!

Dr. Amy Schullery
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I help new moms and dads adjust to parenthood. Bringing a new baby into the house is stressful. We work on effective strategies to balance everything, maintain a good relationship, and adapt to an expanding family. I work with moms while they are pregnant, postpartum, and parents that have multiple children too. Dads need help adjusting too. I also work with parents with older children- to help them develop effective strategies for parenting, having good relationships with their growing kids, and adjusting to kids growing up or moving out of the home.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help parents—whether on their own or with a partner—meet the challenges of parenting with steadiness and clarity. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—stress, uncertainty, and competing values—and turn that understanding into workable steps for communication, boundaries, and repair. The aim is durable change—less reactivity and second-guessing, more alignment, warmth, and confidence in how you respond to your children and, when pertinent, to one another.

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. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Parenting is rewarding, but it can also bring emotional overload, guilt, and the sense of never doing enough. I help parents manage this invisible mental load by using mindfulness-based strategies, emotion regulation skills, and relational interventions to support healthier family dynamics. Together, we’ll work on building self-compassion, setting effective boundaries, and practicing coping techniques that allow you to feel more grounded and present. Therapy is not about perfect parenting - it’s about strengthening resilience and finding joy in the moments that matter most.

Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Parenting is one of the most humbling experiences a person can have — and one of the least supported. I work with parents navigating the emotional weight of raising children, particularly adoptive and foster parents whose parenting journey carries layers that traditional parenting resources rarely address. Whether you're trying to understand a child's behavior through an attachment lens, navigating conversations about identity and belonging, or simply trying to show up for your family while also taking care of yourself, this is a space where parenting's real complexity gets the attention it deserves.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience conducting therapy, psycho-educational assessments, and psychological evaluations with children and adolescents. As such, I have expertise in child development that I bring to my work with parents who are looking for help navigating the challenges that can come with raising kids. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist or parenting coach that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about you, your family, and your reasons for seeking help with parenting. Then we can plan together from there. Starting therapy or parenting work can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of both maximizing your parenting strengths and exploring options for ways to modify your parenting choices in areas that feel more challenging to you.

Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
Sure, you and your partner knew parenting would have its challenges, but you were not quite prepared for how much of your energy it would take and how little you would have left for each other. Your relationship feels rocky in ways you never imagined, you are tired and overstimulated, and the additional mental load (do their clothes still fit? did I fill out that form? which brand of toasted oat cereal will they actually eat?) is soul-crushing. You may feel hesitant to add something else to your to do list, but couple therapy could be a key component of what pulls you out of that state of burnout. You need an experienced couple therapist to help you to feel heard and understood by your partner, to break out of unhelpful communication patterns, and to reclaim some of your time for your needs as an individual and as a couple.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.

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.
