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.

The Mindful Life with Lori Kahn
Life Coach, Certified Integrative Coach, Certified Mindfulness Meditation Teacher
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.

New Beginnings Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Parenting can be both joyful and challenging, and it often brings stress, uncertainty, and emotional strain. In therapy, we help parents navigate these challenges by exploring family dynamics, communication patterns, and attachment needs—both for themselves and their children. We focus on building healthy boundaries, fostering emotional connection, and developing practical strategies for raising resilient, confident children. With Christ-centered guidance, parents are supported in cultivating patience, clarity, and balance, while strengthening the overall health and harmony of their family relationships.

Sonny Granade
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
The way we parent our children is deeply shaped by our own upbringing—both by what felt nurturing and by what may have caused harm. I work with my clients to reflect on these early experiences and to thoughtfully examine the beliefs guiding how they are raising, or hope to raise, their own children. Together, we explore how parenting—and re-parenting ourselves—can become a meaningful expression of our values, intentions, and sense of purpose, while also creating space for healing and growth across generations.
