Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.

Erin Anderson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MS, MSW, LCSW
I provide compassionate and practical parent coaching to support caregivers in navigating the challenges of raising children. I create a supportive, judgment-free space where parents can explore their concerns, strengthen their skills, and build more positive connections with their children. Using a strengths-based and solution-focused approach, I help parents develop effective communication strategies, set healthy boundaries, and foster emotional resilience in both themselves and their children. Whether managing behavioral challenges, adjusting to new family dynamics, or seeking more confidence in parenting, my goal is to empower caregivers with the tools and insight needed to create a nurturing, balanced family environment.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The pressure to be the perfect parent and professional is immense and intense. Our culture covets the perfect life and cultivates a narrative that you can have it all if you just try hard enough. In my most professional capacity, I call NONSENSE on that (insert more forceful word if you'd like). Holistic Life Coaching can be a powerful experience in which we examine, explore, and elevate your own definition of successful parenting, empowering your parental presence according to YOUR values, character, and strengths. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement any therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I offer tools that can increase ease, support the maintenance of positive healthy boundaries, increase satisfaction in your life, improve communication and connection with your children, and so much more. Let's talk about what being a parent means to you.
