Dr. Dace Tapley
Licensed Professional Counselor, DBH, MBA, LPC, NCC
We utilize the Love and Logic curriculum developed by Jim Fay and Foster Kline. This curriculum works to help parents approach parenting as a partner in the growth process rather than a facilitator of discipline while allowing the natural learning process to teach the child. This is facilitated by approaching learning opportunities from a place of empathy rather than discipline and handing the problem solving back to the child.

Dr. Amy Schullery
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I help new moms and dads adjust to parenthood. Bringing a new baby into the house is stressful. We work on effective strategies to balance everything, maintain a good relationship, and adapt to an expanding family. I work with moms while they are pregnant, postpartum, and parents that have multiple children too. Dads need help adjusting too. I also work with parents with older children- to help them develop effective strategies for parenting, having good relationships with their growing kids, and adjusting to kids growing up or moving out of the home.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

Kayla Reed
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LAMFT
I specialize in providing compassionate and effective support for parents navigating the joys and challenges of raising children. Parenthood is a journey filled with love, laughter, and learning, but it can also bring its share of stress, uncertainty, and self doubt. Whether you're facing behavioral challenges, communication breakdowns, or simply seeking guidance on navigating the complexities of modern parenting, I am here to offer practical tools, insight, and encouragement. My approach is collaborative and tailored to the unique needs of each family, recognizing that there is no one size fits all solution to parenting. Through a combination of psychoeducation, skill building, and supportive counseling, I empower parents to foster healthy relationships, set boundaries, and cultivate a nurturing and supportive home environment. With empathy, understanding, and a strengths based perspective, I help parents navigate the ups and downs of parenthood with confidence and resilience. My goal is to support you in building strong, loving, connections with your children while also prioritizing your own well being and self care.

As a parent myself, both biological and step-mother, I understand the difficulties in parenting children of all ages. I guide parents navigate this very hard journey by improving their communication and relationship with their children, and forming a stronger, more secure bond.
