Parenting
Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Parenting disagreement is one of the most common sources of relationship distress. I work with parents across the developmental spectrum to find solutions to common challenges. Additionally, I work with couples to find successful conflict management strategies around parenting. Part of the ADHD coaching I provide is for parents to better understand how to help support their children and build skills.

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.

Jonathan Schnapp
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but also exhausting, uncertain, and at times overwhelming. Whether you’re navigating daily stress, challenges with your child, or questions about how you want to show up as a parent, therapy offers a space to reflect and find steadiness. Together, we’ll explore patterns, expectations, and emotional responses, helping you respond more thoughtfully and build a relationship with your child that feels more connected and sustainable.

Parenting can be both deeply meaningful and unexpectedly challenging. It often brings moments of joy alongside stress, self-doubt, and shifting expectations.
