John Jakubowski
Marriage and Family Therapist, MACP LPCC LMFT
Parenting is every word you can imagine, but clients very rarely want to discuss how well their kids are doing. In working with children and being a parent, I know first hand the stressors and trials of parenting. My special sauce is teaching you how to communicate with your child so they listen, and teach you how to listen so you can communicate. Learn to recognize triggers and move through into the world soothed, secure and safe.

Anders Greenwood
Psychologist, Psy.D, Ph.D.
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. I believe therapy should lead to better decisions, as well as improved quality of life and relationships.

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.

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.
