Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
Parenting can reveal the best and hardest parts of ourselves. The same patterns that shape our adult relationships — conflict, distance, sensitivity, avoidance - often surface in how we relate to our children. Therapy provides space to explore those dynamics with compassion and intention, helping you parent from a place of steadiness rather than reactivity. My approach integrates attachment theory and emotionally focused principles, guiding parents toward deeper understanding of their own triggers, values, and needs. Whether you’re navigating co-parenting after infidelity or divorce, struggling with communication at home, or feeling disconnected from your child, the goal is to restore connection and repair - not perfection, but presence. Sessions are available online through HIPAA-compliant Zoom across twelve licensed states, and in person at 220 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
If it’s therapy between multiple family members that you need, we have therapists with experience.
Family therapy can be a great place to start or the perfect place to “end up.” When one member of the family is having issues, it affects EVERY member. How each person copes with problems is unique. If there is one thing a family therapist might share it would be this: When each person works to “own their part,” change is more likely to occur. Sometimes, it works best if individual therapy comes first—there may be a history of misunderstandings that need to be worked through before you all get together in the same room. Family therapy is even possible online. Each member can join from separate rooms, or they can sit together—just like in person. Learning the basics of healthy communication, identifying hidden resentments, and exploring unspoken family “rules” can be tough, but absolutely worth it. Let our therapists help to bring your family closer.

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.

Nicole Walton
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, MSW, LISW-S
Parenting can be incredibly difficult and because every child is different, even "experienced parents" can often feel inexperienced and overwhelmed. Whether you are going through a difficult time with a new teenager or you are trying to figure out how you want to parent on a specific issue, it can be incredibly helpful to have support. I will provide a nonjudgmental, warm, and collaborative environment to address whatever parenting concerns you may have. Together we will work toward enhanced health and wellness for your entire family.

Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I believe empowering parents is the most effective way to foster lasting, positive change in a child’s life. Parenting is the toughest job in the world—usually with no training manual—and it is meant to be a collaborative, supported journey, not an isolating one.
My focus is on providing a non-judgmental space to help parents understand the "why" behind challenging behaviors, enhance their own emotional regulation, and build stronger, more secure attachment bonds. By equipping parents with tailored, research-based strategies—from managing tantrums to navigating adolescent defiance—I help transform household stress into a more harmonious family environment where both parents and children can thrive. I work to help you feel confident, proactive, and resilient in your parenting journey, ensuring you have the tools to support your child’s emotional growth.

Abigail Hust
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW-S, CST
Adjusting to parenting is often a large relational shift for couples and working with this transition can support individuals and couples in finding their identity during this transition and beyond. Parenting continues to be a process of confronting our own 'stuff' and working to heal while also breaking cycles.

Parenting can be stressful and demanding, and parents often struggle with the work/life balance. Most parents feel strongly about being the best parents they can be, and at the same time, struggle to do so. Many parents benefit from parent guidance tailored for their children's needs.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The pressure to be the perfect parent and professional is immense and intense. Our culture covets the perfect life and cultivates a narrative that you can have it all if you just try hard enough. In my most professional capacity, I call NONSENSE on that (insert more forceful word if you'd like). Holistic Life Coaching can be a powerful experience in which we examine, explore, and elevate your own definition of successful parenting, empowering your parental presence according to YOUR values, character, and strengths. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement any therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I offer tools that can increase ease, support the maintenance of positive healthy boundaries, increase satisfaction in your life, improve communication and connection with your children, and so much more. Let's talk about what being a parent means to you.

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.
