Marina Goldenberg
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
Many parents would agree that though they read the books, and took the classes, and maybe even spent time taking care of children before having their own, they still felt unprepared for parenthood. There are as many reasons why as there are parents, but at the end of the day, it's impossible to be completely prepared for parenting because you just don't know what you don't know. And when you do know it, you still may not know how to make that knowledge work. Parenting, even at the best of times, can be exhausting and stressful, but add on all the other things that complicate our lives - careers, money worries, romantic, platonic and family relationships, other people's expectations and judgments, the lack of support, single parenthood, you name it - and things get harder and harder. And what if your child has special or different needs? It's not easy being a kid, and watching your kid struggle, either with health issues, or mental health, or academics or peer relationships, or literally any of the countless other things that kids have to navigate, can feel like an impossible task. And on top of that you're somehow supposed to take care of yourself and pay the bills? Well look, I can't take those stressors away, but I can help you figure out how to navigate the (maybe literal, maybe figurative) sh!tstorm that is modern parenting, take gentler care of yourself and cultivate a life that honors your values and your hopes and wishes for yourself, your family and your child.

Long Island Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R, CCTP
There is no user manual for parenting, and it is entirely normal to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or disconnected from your child. Whether you are navigating the toddler years, dealing with teenage defiance, or adjusting to co-parenting, I offer practical, compassionate guidance. Drawing from evidence-based communication strategies and systemic insights, I help parents manage their own emotional triggers, replace reactive discipline with mindful connection, and build a peaceful, supportive home environment.

Dr. David Amarel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training & experience ranges from psychotherapy & assessment of adults, couples, & teens to counseling persons with AIDS & survivors of trauma with acute PTSD. Whether you seek to overcome a specific trauma or to break a chronic life pattern, to work toward achieving your purpose, I will meet you where you are at. Parenting is the ultimate project. We’re foolish to think we can ever get it 100% right & I’d be remiss & presumptuous to suggest otherwise. But we can always do better. Many of the foundational elements of good psychotherapy: learning better insight, acuity (discernment), & self-control are key to our better parenting.

Ellen White
Life Coach, Life & Relationship Coach
I work with clients to help them build healthier, more respectful and connected relationships with their children (at any age). I aim to take a lot of the guess work and stress out of building a long lasting relationship with your children. In turn, this helps kids feel a greater self confidence/esteem, develop good character, and weather life’s challenges better.

Dr Jody Eiser
Therapist, Doctorate in Psychology
Parenting often brings our own patterns to the surface. My work focuses on understanding both the child’s behaviour and the parent’s responses through a trauma-informed lens and a focus on how we adapt to feel safe. Together, we build awareness, strengthen connection, and support more intentional, regulated ways of responding.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I have many years of experience supporting parents in their journeys, from pregnancy, through raising your children into adults. I have worked with clients of all ages of development and have previously worked as the Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool in Oakland, CA. In that role, I worked with young children and their parents in therapy, supported teachers in understanding implications of mental health in children and families from the earliest stages, and also supervised other mental health providers in the process. I am a parent myself and understand the immense job and opportunity this life stage entails as well as the challenges that can come. I have a particular expertise in parenting neurodivergent children/adolescents from a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach.

Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Parenting, the most important and most difficult job in an adult's life, is intuitive only if the individual him/herself was parented perfectly. For most of us, some poor parenting strategies modeled by our own parents need to be unlearned and replaced by effective strategies. Being present for your children, listening, being clear and consistent with expectations, and, most importantly, using positive reinforcement, rather than punishment, together set up the loving environment in which children thrive. These strategies can be learned and practiced in session and exercised at home for parents that don't just feel empowered, but actually are empowered, in control, and effective .

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.

Timothy W. Logsdon
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSEd,LMHC,NCC
Kids do not come with manuals. Even more so, kids who have addictions or other heavy needs make it even more difficult and confusing to know what to do and where to turn for help. With experience with Emotionally Disturbed Youth, managing group homes, and working for the county mental health I have deep experience in helping parents to find their way. I will help you see where you may have missed some of the basics of behavioral management, where you may be communicating mixed or unintentional messages and how to guide your child (or adult child) to a better place.
