Erica Hart
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Becoming a parent often opens up feelings about our own parents. We often are trying to "do better" for our kids, but this can have its challenges. I support clients who are trying to understand their parental roles, heal from historic family wounds, and find balance and self-compassion in their lives.

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.

Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am a parent and a grandparent. I am blessed to be in a loving marriage for fifty-three years. I think parenting is both one of the most gratifying of jobs, but also one of the most difficult. No one is a "perfect" parent. As we age many of us will have regrets about some of the ways we parented.
If you are a parent you will have your own unique concerns you will want to talk about. Let's explore what they are.

Karina Baltazar-Durán LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
If being a kid or teen isn't hard enough, parenting one (or several) def is. It's so difficult to manage our emotions and our kid's emotions simultaneously and sometimes it can feel like there's never a break! Allow me to hold the space for you to explore the parent you are vs the parent you want to be, while reminding you, you're still human and have a great identity outside of being a parent.

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.

Dr. Ylenia Martinez
Counselor/Therapist, PsyD
Parenting often brings up your own history, triggers, and fears about “getting it wrong.” I help parents understand their child’s behavior through a nervous‑system and attachment lens, respond with more regulation and consistency, and parent in ways that align with your values rather than just repeating old patterns.

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. 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.

Plano is one of the most affluent suburbs in Texas — home to the US headquarters of Toyota, JPMorgan Chase, and dozens of other major corporations — creating high demand for therapists who work with executive stress, high-achieving perfectionism, and the psychological costs of high-pressure corporate careers. The city has a large and rapidly growing South Asian population, particularly Indian Americans concentrated in communities around Legacy West and Collin County, creating significant demand for culturally competent therapists who understand the intersection of South Asian family expectations, professional ambition, and identity. Texas Health Plano and Medical City Plano provide institutional mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community. Plano's suburban prosperity makes private therapy financially accessible to a broad population, though stigma barriers in some cultural communities remain a consideration.
