Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Adjusting to life as a parent can be both beautiful and overwhelming. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist and PMH‑C certified clinician, I support individuals navigating the emotional challenges of early parenthood, including exhaustion, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the pressure to “get it right.” Therapy offers a steady, compassionate space to explore parenting stress, build confidence, and reconnect with yourself during this major life transition.
I also help parents manage the complex emotions that arise when returning to work after parental leave, such as guilt, anxiety, role strain, and the challenge of balancing caregiving with professional responsibilities. Together, we work toward creating routines, boundaries, and coping strategies that support your well‑being and your family’s needs.

Averill Hovey
Art Therapist, MA, MA, LPC-S, ATR-BC, EMDR
Parenting can be deeply meaningful and deeply challenging, often at the very same time. Changes in a child’s development, behavior, emotional needs, or family circumstances can leave even thoughtful and experienced parents wondering what their child needs and whether they are getting it right.
I work with parents to better understand what may be happening beneath a child’s behavior while also making space for the parent’s own experience. Drawing from art therapy, play and attachment-informed approaches, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and Gestalt and experiential work, I help families develop greater connection, communication, and emotional understanding.
Our work may include exploring patterns within the family, strengthening the parent-child relationship, developing creative strategies for regulation and communication, and helping parents respond to difficult moments with greater confidence and flexibility. My goal is not to prescribe one “right” way to parent, but to help you better understand your child, yourself, and the relationship you are building together.

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.

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.
