Parenting
Kayzim Suárez-Reyes
Psychologist, PhD
As a mother of a 2 year-old, I know how important it is to recognize the needs and milestones of our children. I specialize in supporting parents through the complexities and challenges of raising children and adolescents through a developmentally informed, attachment-based lens, to help you move beyond reactive parenting to intentional, effective connection. Whether you are navigating behavioral issues, managing family stress, co-parenting challenges, or supporting a child with neurodevelopmental differences like ADHD or ASD, I provide practical strategies for enhancing communication, setting consistent boundaries, and fostering emotional intelligence. My goal is to empower you to feel more confident and capable in your parenting role, ultimately strengthening the resilience and well-being of your entire family system.

Greg Whittaker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
In addition to raising six children with my wife (and currently practicing on the grandchildren), I have taught dozens of parenting classes and read extensively on this subject. I get a great deal of satisfaction in helping parents become more effective at bonding with their children and creating a sense of order in their home. My main focus is on helping parents discipline their children with techniques that encourage their children learn to be responsible for their behavior so they can become happy and successful later in life.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting is not for the faint of heart! It often brings up unexpected emotions, fears and our own childhood experiences-good and bad. Whether as an adjunct service to your child's service or part of your own therapy process, I use an attachment based model to help you explore and understand how your history and experiences shape parenting values and practices, increase understanding of developmental needs and expectations, and learn strategies to improve connection and relationship functioning.

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.

Rachel Thomasian
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Parenting can be deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging at the same time. I work with parents to strengthen connection, improve communication, and navigate behavioral, emotional, and developmental concerns with greater confidence and calm. Together, we build practical tools that support both the child’s well-being and the parent’s own resilience.
