Annalisa Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a parent of 2 I can directly relate to the struggles of parenting. Each developmental stage comes with its own challenges that require their own set of skills and awareness. You may need to take a look at your ability to stay consistent, maintain boundaries or need for control.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting is one of life's most rewarding experiences—and one of its most challenging. Whether you're navigating behavioral issues, communication struggles, family conflict, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of raising children, support can make a meaningful difference. My goal is to empower you with tools and insights that work for your unique family. Parenting doesn't come with a manual, but you don't have to figure it out alone.

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.
