Parenting
Audrey Stempel, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Parents tend to parent their children the way they were parented or the exact opposite. Neither of these strategies are often successful. Parents of a child who may be neurodivergent or struggling with attention or behavioral issues require specialized support tailored to the child. Parenting can be joyful once a management plan is in place and parents learn how to provide the support their child needs.

Rachel Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
As a licensed psychologist and parent myself, I specialize in helping parents navigate the complex journey of raising children. My approach combines evidence-based strategies with real-world parenting experience, offering practical solutions for common challenges such as setting boundaries, managing behavior, and fostering healthy communication. Through our work together, parents gain confidence in their parenting skills, learn to balance their own needs with those of their children, and create a more harmonious family environment.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Parenting can be one of life's most meaningful and rewarding experiences, while also bringing significant challenges, uncertainty, and emotional demands. Navigating children's developmental needs, family relationships, differing parenting approaches, and the complexities of balancing care for others with one's own well-being can sometimes feel overwhelming. Drawing on relational strategies, I help parents better understand themselves, their children, and the relational patterns that shape family interactions. My approach emphasizes empathy, authenticity, open communication, and respect for each family member's unique experiences and needs. Rather than prescribing a single approach to parenting, I work collaboratively with parents to explore their values, strengthen emotional connections, navigate challenges, and develop more intentional and compassionate ways of relating to their children.

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.
