I help caregivers feel more confident in their parenting as well as gain strategies to create more positive dynamics at home. I often help parents address their overwhelm/irritability/yelling in the home. I additionally help caregivers break generational cycles.

Therapy for parents offers support and guidance to caregivers as they navigate the challenges of raising children. This type of therapy focuses on enhancing skills, improving communication within the family, and addressing issues such as stress, anxiety, and behavioral problems that may arise in children. By providing a safe space for parents to express their concerns and emotions, therapy can help them develop effective strategies, build resilience, and improve relationships with their children.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Parenting puts enormous pressure on a relationship. Sleep deprivation, disagreements about discipline, and the loss of time as a couple can leave partners feeling more like co-managers than companions. I help parents get back on the same team, handle conflict without drawing children into it, and protect their relationship during demanding seasons. I also work with blended families as they sort out new roles, loyalties, and routines.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for parenting challenges, family stress, and difficulties navigating the emotional and relational demands of raising children in today’s fast-paced and high-pressure world. Many parents feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure how to manage behavior challenges, communication breakdowns, discipline concerns, or emotional disconnection within the family system.
Brad takes a holistic and supportive approach to parenting and family counseling, helping parents understand the underlying stressors, emotional triggers, and relational patterns that may be impacting the home environment. Therapy focuses on creating practical, realistic strategies to improve communication, strengthen connection, reduce conflict, and build a more stable and supportive family dynamic.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation skills, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support both individual healing and healthier family functioning. When appropriate, therapy may also explore how past trauma, stress, or unresolved emotional experiences can influence parenting responses, emotional reactivity, and family relationships.
Parenting challenges often occur in the context of broader life stress, emotional overwhelm, and competing responsibilities. Brad’s approach helps clients develop greater emotional awareness, patience, and regulation while also building effective boundaries, coping strategies, and communication tools that support healthier interactions within the family system.
Therapy is collaborative, practical, and tailored to each family’s unique needs and goals. The focus is on reducing stress, improving relationships, and creating a more peaceful, connected, and emotionally supportive home environment.
The goal of therapy is to help parents feel more confident, grounded, and supported while strengthening family relationships and fostering long-term emotional health, stability, and connection.
