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.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in parenting.
Parenting has a way of stirring up your own history long before you expected it to. You might notice the pull to do things differently than you were raised, a fear of repeating what was done to you even as you catch yourself doing it, or guilt after losing patience with a child you love. A child also reorganizes everything else: your time, your relationships, your sense of who you are. Even a long-wanted child brings losses alongside the joy, and those losses often go unspoken.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we look at what these reactions are communicating rather than only at the moment in front of you. The patterns that surface in parenting carry an unconscious logic worth understanding: old lessons about closeness, conflict, or being cared for that were learned long before you became a parent yourself. As those lessons come into view, they tend to loosen their hold on an ordinary Tuesday, and there is more room to parent from where you actually are rather than from what was passed down to you.
If parenting has brought up more than you expected, I would be glad to talk.
