Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PMFT
Parenting can bring up stress, guilt, and even parts of your own childhood. I work with parents to better understand their reactions, strengthen connection with their children, and feel more confident in how they show up. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about feeling more supported and present.

Parenting is hard! There isn't a user manual that comes when our children are born. But neither is it something that should be mysterious. With training and help, just about any dad and mom can be excellent parents.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Parenting is one of the most rewarding yet emotionally demanding roles a person can take on. No matter how much you love your child, it’s natural to feel overwhelmed, uncertain, or even exhausted by the weight of responsibility. Maybe you struggle with patience, feel guilt over not being the "perfect" parent, or second-guess your decisions. Perhaps you're navigating a tough stage—tantrums, teenage rebellion, or parenting through big life transitions—and you just want to feel more confident in how you show up for your child.
The truth is, there is no perfect way to parent—only a way that works best for you and your family. Together, we will explore the challenges you’re facing, strengthen your ability to set boundaries with love, and help you trust your instincts as a parent. You don’t have to do this alone. With support, self-compassion, and the right tools, parenting can feel less overwhelming and more aligned with the kind of connection and guidance you want to provide for your child.

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.

Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
Within any family there are many moving parts, and each members' experiences and struggles have an impact on the functioning of the whole family unit . This is both good news and bad news. The good news is change in one area, or in one member, impacts the family as a whole. The hard part is stepping out and finding a place to start - and I'm here to say, "it won't be as hard as it feels right now."

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.

Tracy Hadel
Counselor/Therapist, LSCSW
Parenting the child/teen/adult with special needs requires an individualized approach. It is not easy, and many people who have not experienced having a child with disabilities tend to criticize and offer unsolicited and inappropriate advice to those parents. I can help provide guidance and resources for those parents.

Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in supporting parents who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of how to navigate the emotional and relational challenges of raising children. Parenting often brings up unexpected triggers, self-doubt, and the pressure to “get it right,” especially while balancing work, relationships, and the mental load of daily life. Many parents find themselves reacting in ways they didn’t intend or feeling disconnected from the kind of parent they want to be. Our approach helps parents understand both their child’s emotional needs and their own, strengthen attachment and communication, and respond with greater confidence and calm. Therapy provides a space to reflect, reset, and develop tools that support a more connected, intentional, and sustainable parenting experience.
