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.

Dr. Susan L. Waldo
Psychologist, PhD
My parenting assistance is informed by own parenting experience. I have raised eight children, four biological and four adopted. I especially enjoy working with parents of children with DMDD, ODD, RAD, and Conduct Disorder. I provide numerous behavior management, attachment, bonding, and relationship restoring interventions.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LCMFT
Our children will always bring to the surface our unresolved issues. Healthy parenting is about being nurturing, consistent, authoritative, responsive, and able to regulate your own emotions in the presence of the child.
