Beth Clardy Lewis
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Parenting brings equal parts love, overwhelm, and constant decision-making. I help parents navigate behavioral challenges, emotional regulation, boundaries, and the shifting identity that comes with raising humans. With a blend of clinical insight and practical tools, and as a parent myself, I support you in becoming a more grounded, confident parent. Together we build strategies that work in real life — not just in theory.

Reiss Psychology Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I help parents understand what their teen is experiencing, from the internal experience of anxious or depressive thoughts to the behaviors that often accompany them, so they can respond with empathy rather than frustration or fear. I also coach parents in how to reinforce the skills their teen is learning in session in everyday moments at home. Part of this work involves helping parents recognize their own role in the family system, and adjusting their responses to better support their teen's growth.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience conducting therapy, psycho-educational assessments, and psychological evaluations with children and adolescents. As such, I have expertise in child development that I bring to my work with parents who are looking for help navigating the challenges that can come with raising kids. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist or parenting coach that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about you, your family, and your reasons for seeking help with parenting. Then we can plan together from there. Starting therapy or parenting work can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of both maximizing your parenting strengths and exploring options for ways to modify your parenting choices in areas that feel more challenging to you.
