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.

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.

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.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological demands of parenting, including those parenting alone or alongside other significant pressures. Parenting often brings long-standing patterns into sharper focus, affecting identity, relationships, boundaries, and how people respond under stress.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how parenting experiences interact with internal expectations, responsibilities, and emotional load. Rather than focusing on parenting techniques, sessions centre on understanding how you are impacted by the role and how different parts of you respond to it. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.
