Aryn Ziehnert
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting is one of the most deeply rewarding roles we can take on, yet it is also one of the most emotionally and physically demanding. Between constant decision-making, behavioral challenges, and societal pressure to "get it right," it is incredibly common to feel overwhelmed, guilty, or disconnected from your own identity. My practice offers a compassionate, non-judgmental space to step back from the chaos. Rather than offering rigid rules or perfectionist expectations, we focus on helping you understand your child’s emotional needs, manage parental stress, regulate your own reactions, and build a family dynamic rooted in warmth, connection, and mutual respect.

Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Parenting can be both deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. My approach to parent coaching is grounded in attachment theory and developmental science, with the belief that children's behaviors are meaningful expressions of their needs, emotions, and experiences. I work collaboratively with parents to better understand their child's unique temperament and developmental stage, strengthen connection, and develop practical strategies that support both the child and the parent-child relationship.

Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
Personally, I think being a parent is the hardest job in the world, but also the most rewarding and enjoyable. I speak as a parent of six, and I know as does any parent of more than one child, that each child is unique. Today we live in a world of many different parent-child dynamics. I once knew a young lady who had four mothers: her biological mother, the mother who adopted her, her step-mother, and her mother-in-law. For her, each relationship was different and unique. Each and every parent-child relationship is one of a kind. I will help uncover the uniqueness and rely on some universal truths about parent-child interactions to help your situation be more positive and satisfying.

Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
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.

Karen Hammack
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting is hard! Children are a joy, and bring much happiness, but the act of parenting in today's world brings a great deal of stress. Many couples don't have the family support that existed in past generations, leaving them on their own to figure out how to parent, and how to have a relationship in the midst of it. Even with family support, there are many demands on your time and attention, and it can be hard to figure out they right rhythm for your family. This is even more so if you are a single parent, looking for support and/or guidance in this phase of life.

Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
Parenting can be both deeply meaningful and incredibly overwhelming—sometimes within the same moment. It often brings a profound identity shift, while also stirring up unresolved experiences from your own childhood. Old attachment wounds may resurface, shaping how you relate to your child and how you see yourself as a parent. I work especially with those navigating the postpartum period and early years of parenting—times that can be particularly emotionally taxing and tender. You may find yourself questioning how to connect without conflict, or how to parent differently than you were parented. Through a psychodynamic approach, I help you explore these deeper layers with compassion and curiosity—so you can parent more intentionally, with greater self-awareness and emotional presence.

Jordan Dye - Prepared Acceptance
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMT
When your career involves high-stakes decision-making and constant service to others, coming home to the complexities of parenting can feel like a different kind of frontline. It is incredibly difficult to shift from the "commander" or "crisis-responder" mindset into the patient, nurturing role that children require, and many professional helpers find themselves feeling irritable or "poured out" by the time they reach their own front door. Drawing on my experience working within the school system and my background in the military and emergency services, I provide practical, no-nonsense strategies to help you bridge the gap between your professional and personal life. We focus on finding the emotions driving your child’s behavior—and your own reactions—so you can lead your family with clarity and build a stronger connection without feeling like you’re constantly "on duty."

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on the planet, and it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or triggered by your children. As a therapist trained in both Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help parents move from reactive, guilt-driven parenting to a more secure, compassionate, and "Self-led" connection with their children.
How I Can Help You:
Understand Your Triggers (IFS): Instead of fighting your "reactive parts" (anger, impatience, fear), we will get to know them. You’ll learn to unblend from the parts that shame you or yell, allowing you to parent from a calmer, more confident "Self".
Decode the Negative Cycle (EFT): We will identify the, often, unconscious patterns that leave everyone feeling disconnected or upset. By understanding the attachment needs behind your child's behavior—and your own—we can break the cycle of pursuit and withdrawal.
Build Secure Attachment (EFT & IFS): I provide a safe space to explore your own childhood wounds, ensuring they don't get passed down. You will learn how to show up as a secure base, helping your children feel safe, seen, and understood.
Together, we will move from perfectionism to connection, helping you raise resilient children while finding peace in your parenting journey.

When your children were born, were you given the official parenting class? The one that answers all your questions about how to raise a child? No?
When mine were born, I wasn't given the class either. I wish I could have seen me about my children back in the days when it would have done me some good!
