Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Parenting can be one of life's most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many parents find themselves balancing the desire to raise emotionally healthy children while navigating their own stress, relationships, cultural values, and family expectations. Whether you are struggling with behavioural concerns, communication difficulties, co-parenting challenges, parenting through separation, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, therapy can provide support and guidance.
At Min & Mind, we recognize that parenting does not happen in isolation. Our own childhood experiences, cultural backgrounds, and family dynamics often influence how we approach parenting today. We help parents better understand their children, strengthen connection, navigate conflict with confidence, and develop parenting strategies that align with their values. Our goal is to support families in creating relationships built on trust, understanding, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.

Joshua Redding
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Parenting at any age can be difficult. Even with another adult in the house (sometimes especially with another adult in the house) - Everyone could use a space to talk about this stress, feel heard, and find some solutions to tackle difficult issues within the family. Sometimes it's just so you can get on the same page with your partner or discuss how to manage the behavior of a child. Therapy can help. Consider booking a free 30-minute consult to explore more.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience conducting therapy, psycho-educational assessments, and psychological evaluations with children and adolescents. As such, I have expertise in child development that I bring to my work with parents who are looking for help navigating the challenges that can come with raising kids. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist or parenting coach that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about you, your family, and your reasons for seeking help with parenting. Then we can plan together from there. Starting therapy or parenting work can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of both maximizing your parenting strengths and exploring options for ways to modify your parenting choices in areas that feel more challenging to you.

Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Parenting can be overwhelming, especially when raising a child with special needs or managing your own emotional regulation alongside your child's challenges. I provide a compassionate, judgment-free space to help parents navigate these complexities with confidence. Using mindfulness, emotional regulation techniques, and tailored parenting strategies, I support caregivers in fostering a more peaceful home environment while prioritizing their own well-being. My approach empowers parents to set healthy boundaries, manage stress, and develop practical tools that support both their child's needs and their own emotional resilience.

Amanda Shrekenhamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC
I repeatedly hear my clients who are parents (especially those who are parents of young children), that they often feel unsupported and left behind, both by those who surround them, and by society as a whole. Being a parent isn't easy in the best of times, but being a parent in the current times can feel impossible. To all of the parents out there, I see you, and recognize the unique struggles you have had to confront. I often help parents find their way through parental burnout, balance parenting obligations with demanding work schedules, and find a sense of peace amongst the anxiety and uncertainty that can accompany raising children.

Parenting is one of the most rewarding roles a woman can hold, and also one of the most challenging, and it is okay to admit that both things are true at the same time.

We understand that when you are struggling as a parent, it can affect your mental health, your relationships, and your sense of self in ways that deserve real attention and care. Through evidence-based therapy, we help you show up as the parent you want to be while also making sure that your needs, feelings, and wellbeing are never left out of the equation.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not only a parent of three teenagers, I've also dedicated the bulk of my career to helping parents and their pre-teens and teens. I started a residential treatment center for adolescents as well as a therapeutic boarding school, was a psychologist for an outdoor adventure therapy program, was a therapist at an inner city group home for teenage boys, and the lead therapist on the adolescent wing of a locked psychiatric hospital and a group life coordinator at a juvenile corrections facility. Parenting is challenging and none of us are perfect. Great job seeking guidance and taking action to become the best parent you can be.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are you a parent with trauma? Parenting is hard, but trauma makes it even harder! It's so hard to know what to do when you didn't have a safe and secure home when you were growing up. You want to break the cycle of violence, you want better for your kids, you'd do anything to protect them, but what does that look like day to day?
I get it. I have a background in family therapy where parents and kiddos had extreme trauma, and I currently specialize in trauma and relationships. Let's dig in. No dumb questions, no wrong answers. You deserve support, it's a lot of work to break cycles of trauma, and I'd love to partner with you and celebrate you on this journey.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with parents at all stages, from early childhood through adolescence, helping them navigate the often complex and evolving challenges of raising children. Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but also demanding, and many parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stretched in ways they didn’t anticipate.
My approach focuses on helping parents better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs, while also making space for their own experience. I work collaboratively to strengthen connection, improve communication, and address patterns that may be contributing to conflict or stress within the family.
I also bring particular sensitivity to parenting within adoptive, donor-conceived, and other non-traditional families, where additional layers of identity, communication, and connection may emerge over time.
Above all, I aim to support parents in feeling more confident, grounded, and effective—so they can show up for their children with both clarity and compassion.

SONYA L ALLEN
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CCTP
Parenting children is not as easy as it looks. Children now are dealing with stressors from school, peer pressure and social media. As a parent we want to keep them safe, and we want to guide them to be the best versions of themselves. However, they can be resistant. Connecting with our children is so critical in being able to provide the needed guidance. Learning communication tools and how to set clear boundaries can be very effective in helping your child.
