Paradise Valley, Arizona therapist: Sophie Pierce, psychologist
Parenting

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.

Scottsdale, Arizona therapist: Amy Guido, licensed clinical social worker
Parenting

Amy Guido

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Helping families create a legacy of interactions that reflect their values is a great honor. When blending different parenting styles, it can be challenging to create a collaborative way of raising children that respects multiple perspectives. Working with one family member can often make an amazing difference in the entire family dynamic. If your partner or other family members aren't open to coaching, don't let that stop you from reaching out.

I work to help parents address their issues from a variety of different angles and determine the underlying causes behind the problems.

Phoenix's extreme summer heat and sprawling, car-dependent geography contribute to social isolation and depression, with many residents spending months in largely indoor environments with limited organic social contact. The city has grown rapidly through domestic migration, and therapists frequently work with the disconnection and loneliness that can accompany life in a place where many people lack long-established roots and community ties. Phoenix has a significant veteran population, and therapists specializing in military trauma, PTSD, and veteran family concerns are well represented. Banner Health and Dignity Health provide major institutional mental health resources, with a large private practice community serving Scottsdale, Tempe, and the East Valley.
