Parenting
Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Parenting is both deeply rewarding and incredibly challenging. Even the most loving parents can feel overwhelmed, unsure, or discouraged when their child’s needs or behaviors seem difficult to manage. I specialize in helping parents understand the “why” behind their child’s emotions and behaviors, develop effective communication and discipline strategies, and restore a sense of confidence and calm within the family.
My work with parents often focuses on navigating developmental changes, improving parent–child relationships, and managing challenges such as anxiety, defiance, emotional regulation difficulties, and family transitions. For parents raising children with unique emotional or behavioral needs, therapy offers tools for setting appropriate limits while maintaining empathy and connection.
When co-parenting after divorce or separation, I provide structured support to help parents maintain consistency, reduce conflict, and protect children from adult stressors. I also assist foster, adoptive, and blended families as they navigate attachment and identity issues that can surface throughout a child’s development.
Grounded in cognitive-behavioral and family systems approaches, sessions focus on increasing emotional awareness, enhancing communication, and promoting a calmer, more connected family environment. My goal is to help parents feel equipped, supported, and empowered to raise resilient, emotionally secure children—while also caring for themselves in the process.

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.

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.
