Parenting
Allison King
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, RPT
Maybe it's daily meltdowns, a child who seems anxious or shut down, or a teen who pushes you away no matter what you try. You love your child deeply, yet you're exhausted, second-guessing yourself, and at a loss for what to do next. Most of the time, a child's hard behavior is a signal of big feelings they don't yet have words for. I work with families with children ages 5 and up using Emotionally Focused Family Therapy, which puts the parent-child relationship at the center of healing. Instead of sending your child off to be "fixed," I bring you into the work, because you are the most powerful source of comfort and security in your child's life. Together, we'll uncover what's really driving the struggles, help you read your child's cues with new clarity, and give you the confidence to respond in ways that calm and connect. As your bond grows stronger, the change often comes faster and lasts longer. Give your child the gift of secure relationships to set them up for success.

Sheila Cohen Furr, PhD
Psychologist, PhD, ABN, ACP
Parenting is perhaps the most challenging of life tasks as you face the awesomeness of being responsible for the welfare of another human being. Oftentimes you feel ill prepared, inadequate and guilty. Even if you have a supportive co-parent, there are unexpected turns and twists unique to each child. However, parenting can also be the most gratifying and satisfying of all your adult roles. But sometimes, the most dedicated of parents need a sounding board or advice on how to navigate the next stage or developmental challenge. As a psychologist I get to know you and your child and together we figure out how to best handle the issues at hand so that you feel better about your self as a parent and ideally are enjoying parenting more.

Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting might be the world’s hardest job. The everyday stresses of parenting can activate old patterns that make it hard to be the parent you want to be. When kids have special challenges, it can feel impossible to get it right. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you cope with parenting hurdles, understand yourself and your own past better, and make way for lasting, positive change.

Lauren Chavis
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Parenting can bring enormous love alongside stress, self-doubt, frustration, and the feeling that you're never quite getting it right. I work with parents who want to better understand their own reactions, navigate challenging family dynamics, and find approaches to parenting that feel both effective and consistent with the kind of parent they want to be.
