Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Parenting - "All joy and no fun" is a quote I hear often and it resonates. It has been a great joy and the hardest job. It's hard to know if we are "doing it right" and "I don't want to screw up my kid" are the most common things my clients tell me. Let's talk about your parenting values and how this aligns with your parenting reality to learn some ways to increase your confidence.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.

Lauren Rance
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist (PsyD, LP)
I specialize in working with parents of deeply feeling and thinking kids. Many of these parents describe their kids as emotionally intense with strong opinions about how things should go. These children might have a formal diagnosis (like ADHD or anxiety) or might not. I help parents learn strategies to strengthen the parent-child relationship through play and set consistent, firm, age-appropriate limits.

Jennifer Andrews
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Parenting is one of life’s greatest blessings, but it can also be one of its most challenging roles. From navigating tantrums and teen rebellion to balancing discipline with grace, every stage of parenting brings its own set of trials. The weight of responsibility, self-doubt, and the desire to raise your children in faith can feel overwhelming at times.
As a therapist, I offer a compassionate space to explore your parenting challenges and develop strategies tailored to your family’s needs. Together, we’ll work through the difficulties you face—whether it’s managing your child’s behavior, handling co-parenting conflicts, or finding balance amid the demands of family life.
What makes my approach unique is the integration of your Christian faith into our work. Parenting is a sacred calling, and God provides guidance and wisdom for every season. By incorporating prayer, scripture, and faith-based principles, we’ll explore how to lean on His strength, model Christ-like love, and nurture your child’s spiritual and emotional growth while caring for yourself.
Parenting doesn’t have to feel like a solo journey. With faith and practical tools, you can build stronger connections with your children, feel more confident in your parenting, and create a home filled with love, grace, and the presence of God.

Peg Roberts
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I work with parents of adult children who have trouble knowing when to step in and when to step out of their child's life. It's a balancing act. But learning healthy boundaries can help alleviate anxiety, worry or fear as adult children make decisions for themselves and their families. It's a great relief.

Dr. Mary L. Hendrickson
Psychologist, Psy.D.,LP
Parenting children is a time full of joy and challenges, but also struggles as you are trying to be present to assist your child's growth. Parenting can also bring up many memories, feelings and thoughts about one's own childhood and parents.
Therapy can be a wonderful environment to assist in understanding your own parenting style and struggles, but also sort through how you were parented which does impact your role as a parent to your children. As you begin to develop this understanding in therapy with a professional psychologist, you may be able to develop clearer choices in how you want to parent.

Ray Williams
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Raising kids might be one of the most difficult assignments in the world. They don't come with instructions and most of the time, we as parents don't have the tools needed for the job anyway. Each stage of development also brings the need to change strategies. The good news is that there is hope. Healthy parenting skills can be learned and applied. It won't make parenting easy, but it will help make it effective. They grow up fast. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy them while you can.

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.
