J. Rosalyn Diehl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPPC, LPC
Parenting can be rewarding, but it can also feel overwhelming, exhausting, and full of self-doubt. Whether you're navigating behavioral challenges, co-parenting difficulties, family transitions, or the everyday stress of raising children, therapy can provide support and practical guidance. Together, we'll explore what's working, identify areas of struggle, and develop strategies to help you feel more confident, connected, and effective in your role as a parent while maintaining your own emotional well-being.

Anders Greenwood
Psychologist, Psy.D, Ph.D.
I enjoy helping clients accept and like themselves, organize around strengths, achieve greater emotional presence, think clearly, and let go of shame, guilt and old habits of emotional survival. I believe therapy should lead to better decisions, as well as improved quality of life and relationships.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a parent is tough! You are constantly prioritizing the needs and demands of your little (or not so little) ones and don't often have time for yourself. Being a parent somehow can sometimes bring out our own unmet childhood needs (such as having emotionally unavailable parents ourselves) especially as we actively work to unlearn generational traumas. Perhaps you just need a safe space that's completely yours to just process life or to make space to fill your cup. Therapy with me can be the pause and reset you need to keep going.

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Parenting can activate some of our deepest hopes—and our deepest triggers. I support parents who want to respond to their children with greater calm, connection, and confidence. Using attachment theory, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and developmental models, we explore how your own early experiences may shape present parenting patterns.
Together, we work with the parts of you that feel overwhelmed, reactive, guilty, or unsure, while strengthening your capacity for steady, attuned leadership. The goal is not perfection, but secure attachment—helping your child feel safe, seen, and supported while you feel grounded and empowered.

Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
As a parent myself, I know that parenting is not always easy and most parents have moments when they are unfortunately not the parents they would ideally like to be. The key is to learn from those times, work out what led to them and figure out a better way forward. If we work together on parenting, I will do a comprehensive assessment to get to know you, your background story and goals so I have all of the relevant information. Then, I put together a draft treatment plan, with input from you, so the details will depend on the person. I'm non-judgmental and just focussed on helping you get to where you want to be in your parenting. You obviously can't control your children, but you can control the decisions and actions you take as a parent. I hope to help you to get to a place where you feel comfortable and good about yourself as a parent.
