Parenting is a difficult and stressful job. It doesn't come with a manual. Parents are human and make mistakes, as are their kids. You are taking a brave step in getting help.

Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
Parenting can be soooo challenging, especially in this day and age as couples are often both working full-time while trying to raise socially conscious, kind, children in a thriving environment. Also, throw in the step-parenting element very common nowadays and it's gets even more challenging. I am a parent of two now almost grown children and also a stepmom to two grown children, so I understand from a personal level the intricacies of blended families after divorce or the death of a spouse.

Heidi Sawyer, LPC & Career Exploration Coach
Licensed Professional Counselor
Parenting is the hardest job you will ever have! As a mother myself, I can relate to other parents who are facing challenges during the different stages of childhood development. I come alongside parents to encourage and support them in the hardest and most rewarding work they will ever do in life. While working through parenting challenges, I often find that clients need to learn balance and self-care to present their best self to their family members.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.

Gifted kids have special needs. Here are some of the things that Talented and Gifted children have told us they need help with. They need to:
“...get my teachers to listen to me about being bored.”
“...not get so stressed out about every thing.”
“...find out how to get out of doing busy-work.”
“...know what to do when I get teased for being smart.”
“...convince my mom that I don’t always have to get A+ .”
“...know how to get out of work I miss because of T & G class.”
“...deal with frustration when I already know the subject.”
“...know what to tell my parents when I bomb a test.”
“...know how to get along better with kids who aren’t T & G.”
“...quit acting dumb to get other kids to like me.”
“...not feel embarrassed when kids say, ‘What’s Target Class?’”

Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
I work with parents of children and teens struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, emotional reactivity, disordered eating, and behavioral challenges. Using somatic therapy, nervous system regulation, and practical CBT/DBT-based tools, I help parents reduce reactivity, set healthy boundaries, and restore emotional safety at home. I support single parents, co-parents, and divorced families navigating stress, burnout, and high-conflict dynamics.

Nicole Lucente
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, NCC
The journey of parenting can be challenging. To further complicate it, we sometimes unintentionally bring our own issues to the parenting dynamic. Whether you are a first time parent, a parent with a unique child or situation, or simply finding yourself needing support during a transition, I can help you through the counseling process.
