Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
Parenting can be the most challenging and rewarding thing we do with our lives, and nobody inherently knows how to do it. Children can be difficult to relate to leading to conflict in the parent/child relationship and behavioral problems with children. Together, we can learn strategies to improve connection and communication, develop a routine and system of rules and consequences, and promote development throughout the child's lifetime.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Parenting can bring enormous love alongside stress, self-doubt, frustration, and the feeling that you're never quite getting it right. I work with parents who want to better understand their own reactions, navigate challenging family dynamics, and find approaches to parenting that feel both effective and consistent with the kind of parent they want to be.

Tracy L. Morris
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS LMFT
I found the concept of Family so intriguing as a youth, I decided to get a college degree in it! For me, recognizing that Family is, indeed, a concept constructed by culture and society is crucially important to how Parenting is approached. In no other realm of 'regular' human life do our hauting ghosts come out to play as fervently as when we are parenting children. I work with clients to explore and become clear on their 'ghosts' and then move forward toward the parent they also wanted to be.

Danielle Thurman (Roots and Wings Family Therapy)
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on the planet, and it is completely normal to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or triggered by your children. As a therapist trained in both Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help parents move from reactive, guilt-driven parenting to a more secure, compassionate, and "Self-led" connection with their children.
How I Can Help You:
Understand Your Triggers (IFS): Instead of fighting your "reactive parts" (anger, impatience, fear), we will get to know them. You’ll learn to unblend from the parts that shame you or yell, allowing you to parent from a calmer, more confident "Self".
Decode the Negative Cycle (EFT): We will identify the, often, unconscious patterns that leave everyone feeling disconnected or upset. By understanding the attachment needs behind your child's behavior—and your own—we can break the cycle of pursuit and withdrawal.
Build Secure Attachment (EFT & IFS): I provide a safe space to explore your own childhood wounds, ensuring they don't get passed down. You will learn how to show up as a secure base, helping your children feel safe, seen, and understood.
Together, we will move from perfectionism to connection, helping you raise resilient children while finding peace in your parenting journey.
