There are few more challenging endeavors than that of being a parent. As we delve into any parenting difficulties you may have, we will also bear in mind the larger social context in which parenting and child-rearing occurs in, so as to move forward effectively.

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.

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.

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.

David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
While I do not have specialized training in this subject, I am a parent myself and understand the challenges of balancing personal needs, romantic needs, and showing up for your children. Parenting can also bring up memories or even trauma from our own childhood that hasn't been fully processed. Through understanding your own childhood, you can ensure you break any cycles of patterns so it does not interfere with your parenting moving forward.
