Danielle Martinelli-Taylor
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, EMDRIA
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting. If it is walking through your unexpected anger, frustration, disillusionment or seeing yourself react due to your own childhood, we can dive into it. Using ART for childhood pains that are coming out in your parenting or the bilateral boxing method for building up emotions that need to be released,

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
With over 25 years of experience working with families and children ages 0–18, I provide parenting consultation, diagnostic feedback, and support for behavioral and emotional concerns. I integrate family systems, attachment, behavioral strategies, IFS, and mindfulness to help parents strengthen relationships and create stability. I also collaborate with prescribers on medication management when appropriate. My diagnostic expertise ensures clarity in identifying developmental, emotional, or relational needs and tailoring recommendations that fit the family system. In addition, I offer a clinical evaluation and consultation to address any diagnostic concerns parents may have and make treatment recommendations based on this assessment.

Barbara Clark
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, MS, LPCC, Brainspotting Certified
Parenting can be both meaningful and overwhelming, especially during stressful or transitional periods. I support parents in navigating emotional challenges, building stronger connections with their children, and developing tools to respond rather than react. Therapy creates space for both your needs and your role as a parent.

Arazeli Wagner
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting can bring up old emotional patterns, especially for those healing from childhood wounds or generational trauma. I support parents and caregivers who want to better understand their emotional responses, break unhelpful cycles, and parent with greater intention and self-awareness. Therapy focuses on healing your inner experience so you can show up more grounded and connected in your parenting role.

Tab Shamsi
Psychologist, PsyD, ABPP
I provide parenting support grounded in a strong understanding of behavioral psychology and child development. Parenting can become stressful when conflict, power struggles, or emotional intensity begin to dominate the relationship. My approach focuses on strengthening the connection between parent and child while teaching practical, evidence-based strategies that improve communication, set effective limits, and reduce reactive patterns. We work on helping children understand expectations clearly and feel heard, while also supporting parents in navigating the very real challenges of consistency, discipline, and emotional regulation. The goal is not simply better behavior, but a calmer home environment and a relationship infused with greater clarity, confidence, and even joy.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are you a parent with trauma? Parenting is hard, but trauma makes it even harder! It's so hard to know what to do when you didn't have a safe and secure home when you were growing up. You want to break the cycle of violence, you want better for your kids, you'd do anything to protect them, but what does that look like day to day?
I get it. I have a background in family therapy where parents and kiddos had extreme trauma, and I currently specialize in trauma and relationships. Let's dig in. No dumb questions, no wrong answers. You deserve support, it's a lot of work to break cycles of trauma, and I'd love to partner with you and celebrate you on this journey.

Lauren Jensen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Facing our own selves as parents, doing one of the hardest jobs day after day, re-visiting our own attachments and breaking unhealthy patterns from our own families of origin is hard work...and it's possible. Parenting can be rewarding and bring us to our knees in desperation. We can lose sight of taking care of ourselves along the way. Let's work together so you can stay focused on actually being the type of parent you want to be and need to be - for your kids, your partner, and for yourself.

Sarah J Thompson
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC, LCMHC
For new parents, it can be upsetting and frightening to have feelings about parenthood that don’t seem “right.”
For some, a morning run, a healthy diet and receiving help and support from family and friends are sufficient enough to get through the initial adjustment period. For others, talking to a therapist who specializes in dealing with new parenthood issues can be comforting, relieving and enlightening.
Therapists who have extensive education and training in peri-natal mental health understand that hormone changes, personal and family history, and social support are all vital factors in understanding and alleviating postpartum symptoms.
Common postpartum symptoms include:
Feeling overwhelmed and wondering if you should have become a mother in the first place
Feeling guilty due to high self-expectations
Not feeling “bonded” with the baby
Your thoughts are racing and you can’t quiet your mind
Feeling empty and numb as if you’re just going through the motions
Lack of focus and concentration
Being afraid that if you reach out for help, others will judge your inabilities
Thoughts of running away or leaving your baby behind
Being constantly in a state of worry
If one or more of the above symptoms resonates with you, I invite you to contact me today for a free consultation. Together, we’ll find the underlying issues that make you feel disconnected from your baby and create a strategy for moving forward. Contact me today to see how I can help.
