Dr. Nicole Montes
Psychologist, PsyD
The birth of a child can be a magical time, it can also be a time of incredible challenge. I see it as my job to hold both of these realities with clients. Becoming a parent can also be trigger and stir up trauma related to our own childhood and add stress to a partner relationship. I help clients unpack this so that they can more forward to parent with more intentionality and in alignment to their values. There is no better time to work towards dismantling patterns of generational trauma and build a foundation for generational healing.

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.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Parenting is the most fulfilling and also the most difficult job. Each child's personality, learning style, strengths and weaknesses are unique. I work on helping parents to understand their child and work together as a family unit so that their child can grow to be the best version he or she is meant to 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.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
Parenting can be incredibly rewarding, but it’s also one of the hardest jobs in the world—especially when raising a neurodivergent child. I work with parents to strengthen communication, increase understanding, and create supportive structures at home. Using tools like the SPACE program, I help parents reduce accommodating behaviors driven by anxiety and replace them with strategies that encourage growth and resilience. Together, we’ll build a calmer, more connected family dynamic.

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.

Linda Friedman
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand the profound impact a child's challenging behavior can have on the entire family. It strains parental relationships and takes an emotional toll on daily interactions with your child. The journey might feel overwhelming, but there is hope!
As a nationally certified provider of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I specialize in bringing about transformative changes in children's behaviors, turning family dynamics from stress-ridden to harmonious. I’m committed to assisting families facing challenges such as tantrums, oppositionality, defiance, and aggression.
What sets PCIT apart is its proven effectiveness, backed by over 30 years of research. It's not just a treatment; it's a powerful solution designed for children grappling with behavioral and emotional difficulties. The "secret sauce" lies in the live coaching sessions, where I’ll support you, implementing PCIT tools in real-time. The in the moment feedback empowers parents to quickly master skills that results in tangible improvements in their child's behavior.
Break free from the cycle of stress and tears! Contact me today for a free consult to explore how the PCIT program can bring lasting positive changes and a happier, healthier family life!

Debra Zand
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting therapy helps parents identify, address, and manage their own past or present experiences that may be affecting the way they relate to their child. In some cases, parenting therapy may also help parents better communicate between each other to maintain a cohesive and structured parenting approach. Parenting therapy provides a judgement-free zone for parents to discuss tough moments in parenting and learn how to better manage these tough moments moving forward. Overall, parenting therapy aims to provide parents with the necessary knowledge, tools, guidance, and support to take care of themselves and their children in the most ideal way possible.

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.

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.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Grief is a deeply personal experience that unfolds differently for everyone. There is no "right" way to grieve, and healing rarely follows a predictable path. My role is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can process your loss at your own pace, make sense of the emotions that arise, and gradually find ways to move forward while honoring the significance of what you've lost.

Alabaster Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
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. At Alabaster Counseling, we support mothers and caregivers who are navigating the emotional demands of parenting, from the exhaustion and identity shifts that come with welcoming a new baby, to the challenges of raising children and teenagers through difficult seasons. 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.
