The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn
Life Coach, Certified Integrative Coach, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher, Certified Neurofeedback
I specialize in "mindful parenting" with tools and techniques to practice patience, understanding, empathy and compassion first for how we as parents get triggered and react from what we know from our own upbringing. With that awareness we can begin to choose our reactions, see the change and even develop new healthy family habits of mindful communication.

Baya Mebarek, In-Office Couple Therapy & Online Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
The Key to successful parenting is based on your deepest feeling of love and affection for your child, and it is demontrated simply through empathy and understanding. Good parenting begins in your heart, and continues in the way you engage your child when feelings run high, when they are sad, angry or scared. The heart of parenting is being there in a particular way when it really counts.

David Oretsky Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a therapist specializing in parenting support, I am deeply committed to helping parents navigate the richly complex journey of raising children. My practice is strongly influenced by the principles put forth by Dr. Becky Kennedy in her book "Good Inside," and Shefali Tsabary's enlightening work "The Awakened Family". I strongly believe in fostering emotional intelligence, promoting internal growth, and nurturing healthy communication within families, as underscored in these seminal works.
I see my role as not just helping parents manage daily parenting struggles, but more importantly, to guide them in cultivating a deeper understanding of their own emotions and reactions. By doing so, they can model emotional health to their children, foster stronger bonds, and cultivate a more balanced and harmonious family environment.
Whether you're dealing with tantrums, power struggles, behavioral issues, or relationship concerns, my approach is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where we can collaboratively address these challenges. Drawing from the wisdom of Dr. Becky's and Dr. Tsabary's principles, we'll work together to explore mindful parenting strategies that focus on connection, empathy, and understanding.
Remember, the goal of parenting is not perfection, but growth – both for you as a parent and for your child. With patience, compassion, and understanding, we can navigate this journey together towards a healthier, happier family life.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst
Parenting is a rewarding yet complex journey. As a psychoanalytic therapist, I understand that your own upbringing and unconscious dynamics can influence your parenting style. Together, we can explore how your past experiences might be shaping your present interactions with your child. By bringing these unconscious patterns to light, you can build a stronger connection with your child, fostering empathy, effective communication, and a more fulfilling parenting experience.
