Mun & Mind Therapy PLLC
Psychologist
Parenting can be one of life's most rewarding experiences, but it can also be one of the most challenging. Many parents find themselves balancing the desire to raise emotionally healthy children while navigating their own stress, relationships, cultural values, and family expectations. Whether you are struggling with behavioural concerns, communication difficulties, co-parenting challenges, parenting through separation, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, therapy can provide support and guidance.
At Min & Mind, we recognize that parenting does not happen in isolation. Our own childhood experiences, cultural backgrounds, and family dynamics often influence how we approach parenting today. We help parents better understand their children, strengthen connection, navigate conflict with confidence, and develop parenting strategies that align with their values. Our goal is to support families in creating relationships built on trust, understanding, resilience, and emotional wellbeing.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in partnering with parents, caregivers, nannies, and educators to develop customized strategies that promote success both at home and in school. Recognizing the critical role families play in fostering growth and well-being, I emphasize collaboration, open communication, and shared decision-making to create individualized plans that address each child’s unique needs.
In addition to offering general parenting guidance, I provide evidence-based parent training programs, such as Parent Management Training (PMT) to learn effective strategies to reduce behavioral challenges and support positive change for your child, RUBI Parent Training to help manage behavioral challenges and support developmental progress for autistic children, and SPACE to help parents reduce your child’s anxiety by changing how you respond. My approach empowers families with practical tools and strategies to address a wide range of concerns related to autism, ADHD, and other developmental disabilities. Whether navigating challenging behaviors, improving daily routines, or enhancing social-emotional skills, my goal is to strengthen family dynamics and promote positive outcomes.
I also offer family therapy to help improve communication, resolve conflicts, and strengthen relationships within the household. By addressing family dynamics and fostering understanding, my work supports healthier interactions and greater resilience for both children and adults.
Through a compassionate, strengths-based approach, I strive to build strong partnerships that empower parents and caregivers to feel confident and supported every step of the way.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support parents navigating the challenges of raising children and teens, including behavior concerns, emotional regulation, communication struggles, and family stress. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, unsure how to respond to certain behaviors, or looking to strengthen your relationship with your child, I offer practical, supportive guidance tailored to your family’s needs. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and nonjudgmental. I help parents better understand their child’s development, build effective strategies for structure and consistency, and respond to challenges in a way that fosters connection and trust.

My goal is to help you feel more confident, supported, and equipped in your role as a parent while building a calmer, more connected family dynamic.

Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Raising humans can be tough work! No matter the age or stage of development, there can be challenges in parenting. This is especially difficult if you're parenting a child who is neurodivergent or who has disabilities. Sometimes parents cannot agree on effective strategies. As a parenting expert, I can offer some insight on managing disruptive behaviors and raising emotionally mature kids.
