Parenting
Debbie Cherry
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Becoming parents can dramatically change a couple’s relationship, especially when sleep, responsibilities, careers, and competing expectations enter the picture. I work with parents in California, Texas and Florida who want to feel like partners again rather than simply two people managing a household. We focus on communication, division of labor, conflict, connection, and creating a stronger sense of teamwork.

Eve Picower
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are you a new parent adjusting to one of life's biggest changes? Are you getting ready to welcome a second child or are you already dealing with sibling rivalry? Is your child struggling at school or with friendships, or does your child have a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder or ADHD? Are you parenting on your own, or with a divorced partner, or do you and your partner have different parenting styles and beliefs? Parenting often presents different challenges at every different stage of your child's development, and I would like to help you.

Parenting: The Ultimate Systemic Challenge
Moving from Survival to Connection
Parenting is perhaps the most profound "attachment laboratory" we will ever enter. It has the power to bring up our greatest joys and our deepest "ghosts" from the past. In my practice, I move beyond standard "behavioral tips" to help parents understand the relational system at play. Whether you are navigating the "toddler years," the "teen years," or the complex transition into adult-child relationships, I provide a space to parent with intention rather than reactivity.
Navigating the Modern Parenting System
Today’s parents are facing unprecedented levels of burnout and overwhelmed by "expert" advice. We work together to find your voice in the noise, addressing:
The "Parental Melt Down": Understanding the neurobiology of why we "flip our lids" and learning somatic tools to stay within your Window of Tolerance when your child is out of theirs.
Neurodivergent Parenting: Providing specialized support for parents of neurodivergent children, or for neurodivergent parents themselves, navigating sensory overstimulation and executive functioning demands.
The Cycle of Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing how our own childhood wounds can make a child’s natural independence feel like a personal rejection.
A Research-Backed, Heart-Centered Approach
With over 20 years of experience and a PhD in Child and Family Studies, I integrate high-level theory with practical, everyday application:
Attachment-Based Parenting: Using Attachment Theory to move away from "power struggles" and toward a secure base where your child feels seen, safe, and soothed.
Systems Theory & Family Dynamics: We look at the "hidden" roles everyone plays in the family. How does the stress in the marriage, the workplace, or the social system impact the child’s behavior?
Parenting through Transition: Supporting families through the "big shifts"—divorce, moving, new siblings, or spiritual deconstruction—ensuring the family bond remains resilient.
Supporting the "Helper" Parent
I have a deep commitment to working with therapists and pastors as parents. It is uniquely difficult to hold space for others all day and then come home to the raw, unfiltered demands of a family. I provide a confidential sanctuary where you can take off the "expert" hat and find the support you need to be the parent you want to be.

If the addict in the family is an adult child, often the parents have to learn new parenting skills so that everyone can benefit from recovery.
