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.

Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
If it’s therapy between multiple family members that you need, we have therapists with experience.
Family therapy can be a great place to start or the perfect place to “end up.” When one member of the family is having issues, it affects EVERY member. How each person copes with problems is unique. If there is one thing a family therapist might share it would be this: When each person works to “own their part,” change is more likely to occur. Sometimes, it works best if individual therapy comes first—there may be a history of misunderstandings that need to be worked through before you all get together in the same room. Family therapy is even possible online. Each member can join from separate rooms, or they can sit together—just like in person. Learning the basics of healthy communication, identifying hidden resentments, and exploring unspoken family “rules” can be tough, but absolutely worth it. Let our therapists help to bring your family closer.
