Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Having worked as a school counselor and youth pastor, I am well acquainted with the unique challenges a parent faces. Not only is every child different but every parent is different. In our work together I will help you and your child find a groove that feels good and allows for deeper and more meaning connection. Not only will I provide you practical tools you can use that day, but I will also share perspectives that will help you stay in connection with them through every stage of their development.

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.

Bonnie Rae
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I love working with parents. I am a parent myself, and without support, I am not sure how the role of parent is manageable. I have extensive experience working with new parents, parents of neurodivergent children (specifically autism and ADHD), parents navigating advocating for support for their children, lesbian parents, queer parents, trans parents, parents who have lost a sense of identity outside of parenthood, navigating parenting with careers, and navigating parenting with illness.

Ben Leddick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting is a confusing process that has nearly a thousand ways to respond to a given situation. In Restoration Therapy, the goal is not to give you the right thing to say or do at any given moment, but rather the tools to self regulate so you can then help your child understand their feelings and eventually learn their own self regulation.

Kayzim Suárez-Reyes

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.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Modern parenting is fraught and complicated in ways that are unprecedented. Expectations have never been higher while conflicting opinions have never been more overwhelming and easily available. Parents need support to clear out the noise and get in touch with their intuitive knowledge of their own children as well as take care of themselves to show up for their kiddos. My work with parents is practical and informative while also affirming of their own values and priorities for family life.

Pasadena is home to Caltech and the Huntington Hospital, and the city's intellectual, academic culture creates demand for therapists experienced in working with high-achievers navigating perfectionism, burnout, and the psychological demands of elite academic and scientific environments. The city's established residential character and proximity to Los Angeles give it a distinct therapy landscape — less entertainment-focused than West Hollywood, more oriented toward depth work, relationships, and long-term growth. Pasadena also has a significant older adult population, with therapists specializing in aging, life review, and elder family dynamics well represented. Many practices serve clients drawn from across the San Gabriel Valley and Foothill communities.
