Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
Gifted kids have special needs. Here are some of the things that Talented and Gifted children have told us they need help with. They need to:
“...get my teachers to listen to me about being bored.”
“...not get so stressed out about every thing.”
“...find out how to get out of doing busy-work.”
“...know what to do when I get teased for being smart.”
“...convince my mom that I don’t always have to get A+ .”
“...know how to get out of work I miss because of T & G class.”
“...deal with frustration when I already know the subject.”
“...know what to tell my parents when I bomb a test.”
“...know how to get along better with kids who aren’t T & G.”
“...quit acting dumb to get other kids to like me.”
“...not feel embarrassed when kids say, ‘What’s Target Class?’”
“...know how to get along like a regular person.”
“...know what to say when I make a mistake.”

Parenting
Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
Sure, you and your partner knew parenting would have its challenges, but you were not quite prepared for how much of your energy it would take and how little you would have left for each other. Your relationship feels rocky in ways you never imagined, you are tired and overstimulated, and the additional mental load (do their clothes still fit? did I fill out that form? which brand of toasted oat cereal will they actually eat?) is soul-crushing. You may feel hesitant to add something else to your to do list, but couple therapy could be a key component of what pulls you out of that state of burnout. You need an experienced couple therapist to help you to feel heard and understood by your partner, to break out of unhelpful communication patterns, and to reclaim some of your time for your needs as an individual and as a couple.

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.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Modern parenting is fraught and complicated in ways that are unprecedented. Expectations have never been higher while conflicting opinions have never been more overwhelming and easily available. Parents need support to clear out the noise and get in touch with their intuitive knowledge of their own children as well as take care of themselves to show up for their kiddos. My work with parents is practical and informative while also affirming of their own values and priorities for family life.

Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
I have many years of experience conducting therapy, psycho-educational assessments, and psychological evaluations with children and adolescents. As such, I have expertise in child development that I bring to my work with parents who are looking for help navigating the challenges that can come with raising kids. I highly encourage you to choose a therapist or parenting coach that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about you, your family, and your reasons for seeking help with parenting. Then we can plan together from there. Starting therapy or parenting work can feel daunting or overwhelming to many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you. My approach is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of both maximizing your parenting strengths and exploring options for ways to modify your parenting choices in areas that feel more challenging to you.
