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.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Parenting is rewarding, but it can also bring emotional overload, guilt, and the sense of never doing enough. I help parents manage this invisible mental load by using mindfulness-based strategies, emotion regulation skills, and relational interventions to support healthier family dynamics. Together, we’ll work on building self-compassion, setting effective boundaries, and practicing coping techniques that allow you to feel more grounded and present. Therapy is not about perfect parenting - it’s about strengthening resilience and finding joy in the moments that matter most.

Parenting is hard - we have the support you need to respond to your child or teen in a way that is helpful, authentic, and kind. Parent Management Training for older kids/teens as well as Parent-Child Interaction Therapy are both helpful in managing tough and oppositional behavior.

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.
