Parenting: The Ultimate Systemic Challenge
Moving from Survival to Connection
Parenting is perhaps the most profound "attachment laboratory" we will ever enter. It has the power to bring up our greatest joys and our deepest "ghosts" from the past. In my practice, I move beyond standard "behavioral tips" to help parents understand the relational system at play. Whether you are navigating the "toddler years," the "teen years," or the complex transition into adult-child relationships, I provide a space to parent with intention rather than reactivity.
Navigating the Modern Parenting System
Today’s parents are facing unprecedented levels of burnout and overwhelmed by "expert" advice. We work together to find your voice in the noise, addressing:
The "Parental Melt Down": Understanding the neurobiology of why we "flip our lids" and learning somatic tools to stay within your Window of Tolerance when your child is out of theirs.
Neurodivergent Parenting: Providing specialized support for parents of neurodivergent children, or for neurodivergent parents themselves, navigating sensory overstimulation and executive functioning demands.
The Cycle of Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing how our own childhood wounds can make a child’s natural independence feel like a personal rejection.
A Research-Backed, Heart-Centered Approach
With over 20 years of experience and a PhD in Child and Family Studies, I integrate high-level theory with practical, everyday application:
Attachment-Based Parenting: Using Attachment Theory to move away from "power struggles" and toward a secure base where your child feels seen, safe, and soothed.
Systems Theory & Family Dynamics: We look at the "hidden" roles everyone plays in the family. How does the stress in the marriage, the workplace, or the social system impact the child’s behavior?
Parenting through Transition: Supporting families through the "big shifts"—divorce, moving, new siblings, or spiritual deconstruction—ensuring the family bond remains resilient.
Supporting the "Helper" Parent
I have a deep commitment to working with therapists and pastors as parents. It is uniquely difficult to hold space for others all day and then come home to the raw, unfiltered demands of a family. I provide a confidential sanctuary where you can take off the "expert" hat and find the support you need to be the parent you want to be.

Dr. John VanderKaay & The Center for Mighty Marriages & Families
Marriage and Family Therapist, DMin, LMFT, BCPCC, BCPC
Effective parenting is the most difficult job in the world. It's also the one many people have the least training in. We are all intended to learn how to be effective parents by being effectively parented by our own parents. If we didn't have that example, we need to learn somewhere else. I help parents learn about their strengths and weaknesses and help parent from their strengths, while improving their weaknesses.

Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
As parents, we want to be the best for our children. However, parenting can be challenging due to societal issues, the quest for emotional and personal safety for our children and shaping them to be independent and able to function successfully in life. In therapy, parenting styles as well as personality styles of children can be addressed to provide a more cohesive and structured approach to parenting your particular child and ensuring you are doing the best job for your children.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Modern parenting is fraught and complicated in ways that are unprecedented. Expectations have never been higher while conflicting opinions have never been more overwhelming and easily available. Parents need support to clear out the noise and get in touch with their intuitive knowledge of their own children as well as take care of themselves to show up for their kiddos. My work with parents is practical and informative while also affirming of their own values and priorities for family life.

Robin Renucci
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, Ed.S, M.Ed, LPC, NCC
Parenting can be one of the most rewarding—and most challenging—roles we take on. I work with parents who are navigating the emotional, behavioral, and developmental complexities of raising children, whether they're in the early years, adolescence, or somewhere in between.
With a background in school counseling and years of clinical experience, I offer a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can explore parenting concerns such as communication struggles, discipline, co-parenting, school-related challenges, and emotional regulation—for both your child and yourself. My approach emphasizes practical tools, emotional insight, and a deeper understanding of your child’s needs and your own parenting style.
Together, we work to strengthen your confidence, deepen your connection with your child, and develop strategies that support a more peaceful, balanced home environment.

We utilize the principles and practical tools from the evidence-based parent training program, Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT). Extensive research indicates that parents who learn and apply the CPRT skills tend to have a significant reduction in their stress levels, and the training tends to result in their children exhibiting less problematic behaviors.

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.

Tracy L. Morris
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS LMFT
I found the concept of Family so intriguing as a youth, I decided to get a college degree in it! For me, recognizing that Family is, indeed, a concept constructed by culture and society is crucially important to how Parenting is approached. In no other realm of 'regular' human life do our hauting ghosts come out to play as fervently as when we are parenting children. I work with clients to explore and become clear on their 'ghosts' and then move forward toward the parent they also wanted to be.
