Parenting
Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am a parent and a grandparent. I am blessed to be in a loving marriage for fifty-three years. I think parenting is both one of the most gratifying of jobs, but also one of the most difficult. No one is a "perfect" parent. As we age many of us will have regrets about some of the ways we parented.
If you are a parent you will have your own unique concerns you will want to talk about. Let's explore what they are.

Chananya Abraham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, MS, LPC
I work with parents who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to reach their children or adolescents. Together, we focus on understanding what is driving behaviors beneath the surface, strengthening emotional attunement, and establishing clear, consistent boundaries. My goal is to help parents lead with both warmth and authority, while helping children and teens feel secure, understood, and capable of growth.

Kelley Hopkins-Alvarez
Licensed Professional Counselor, Couples Therapy, Affair & Betrayal Recovery, Certified Sex Therapy, Certified Discernment Counselor
As a Couples Therapist and Certified Discernment Counselor, I help partners thoughtfully consider whether to recommit to Couples Therapy, pursue a purposeful Healing Separation, or move toward divorce. When couples choose divorce, I may provide specialized Non-Adversarial Divorce Support focused on the emotional, relational, and behavioral aspects of the transition. I help partners manage emotionally charged impasses that may stall the divorce process, improve communication, and make more thoughtful decisions without serving as a mediator or providing legal advice. My work is developmentally informed and child-focused, helping partners understand how separation and divorce may affect children at different ages, as well as the adults involved. When ongoing co-parenting counseling is needed, I refer couples to an appropriate specialist.

Parenting
Shoreline Psychological
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We understand that parenting effectively does not necessarily come naturally to all. We work closely with parents who have a child being treated in our practice or are coming in on their own to hone their skills as parents, leading to supporting a child and family's growth, development and connectedness.

Parenting
Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
Sure, you and your partner knew parenting would have its challenges, but you were not quite prepared for how much of your energy it would take and how little you would have left for each other. Your relationship feels rocky in ways you never imagined, you are tired and overstimulated, and the additional mental load (do their clothes still fit? did I fill out that form? which brand of toasted oat cereal will they actually eat?) is soul-crushing. You may feel hesitant to add something else to your to do list, but couple therapy could be a key component of what pulls you out of that state of burnout. You need an experienced couple therapist to help you to feel heard and understood by your partner, to break out of unhelpful communication patterns, and to reclaim some of your time for your needs as an individual and as a couple.
