Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Parenting is one of the most humbling experiences a person can have — and one of the least supported. I work with parents navigating the emotional weight of raising children, particularly adoptive and foster parents whose parenting journey carries layers that traditional parenting resources rarely address. Whether you're trying to understand a child's behavior through an attachment lens, navigating conversations about identity and belonging, or simply trying to show up for your family while also taking care of yourself, this is a space where parenting's real complexity gets the attention it deserves.

Parenting is a difficult and stressful job. It doesn't come with a manual. Parents are human and make mistakes, as are their kids. You are taking a brave step in getting help.

PSYCHe, PLLC
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.
