Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Parenting can be deeply rewarding while also bringing stress, self-doubt, exhaustion, and difficult emotions. Behavioral challenges, family conflict, developmental changes, or differences in temperament may leave even loving parents feeling overwhelmed or uncertain.
I help parents better understand their children’s emotional needs while recognizing their own triggers and patterns. Together, we work on calm communication, consistent boundaries, emotional regulation, and age-appropriate expectations. The goal is not perfect parenting, but a more secure relationship in which both parent and child feel understood, respected, and supported.

Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
I know you love your child more than anything, and I also know that in addition to being infinitely rewarding, being a parent can also be pretty dang hard. Balancing your own needs with the needs of everyone else who relies on you is not an easy task. I help parents with parenting techniques and improving the parent-child relationship, but my main focus is emotional support. I firmly believe that in order to take care of others, we must take care of ourselves. The kinder and more patient you are with yourself, the more kind and patient you can be with your child - and the more you can model for your child how they can be good to themselves. You are already doing an amazing job, let's work together to decrease conflict in the home and increase the well-being of you, your child, and your family.

Ms. Carol Jean Timmons
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
From my own experience of parenting and grand parenting comes a heart for parents to learn how to effectively deal with their children! Never before in history has there been so much information available on the subject of parenting! And never before has there been so much confusion on the part of parents as to how best to parent - especially in this era of social media! We tend to replicate or react to the parenting we received as children. But there are tested and proven principles of parenting that can help parents learn the art and skill of dealing effectively with their children. Our goal is to raise responsible adults, not just obedient children.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting can be both meaningful and overwhelming, often bringing up stress, uncertainty, and strong emotional reactions. I work with parents to better understand their responses, communication patterns, and the dynamics within the family system. Therapy focuses on building clarity, improving connection, and creating a more stable and supportive environment for both parent and child.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting will be one of the most challenging events of your life -- often a life long journey. With today's stressful outside influences, parents are often confused about what to do or how to help their children. Children and teens are faced with options and decisions never before a part of childhood. Parents need helpful tools and ideas -- and how to be consistent in parenting.

Provia Psychology
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT, LCSW, AMFT, APCC
When counseling parents, we try to emphasize good communication skills as part of the foundation of any parental relationship and utilize our vast training and experience to help families break negative cycles and see themselves as being on the same team, rather than as adversaries as they work through specific issues that are a challenge to having a healthy and fulfilling relationship.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
Parenting can evoke deep attachment patterns and stir unresolved emotions from our own childhoods. I work with parents to understand these dynamics, increase self-compassion, and cultivate relational attunement that supports both their children and themselves.
