Middle Path Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LMSW, LPC, PLPC
We specialize in supporting parents who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of how to navigate the emotional and relational challenges of raising children. Parenting often brings up unexpected triggers, self-doubt, and the pressure to “get it right,” especially while balancing work, relationships, and the mental load of daily life. Many parents find themselves reacting in ways they didn’t intend or feeling disconnected from the kind of parent they want to be. Our approach helps parents understand both their child’s emotional needs and their own, strengthen attachment and communication, and respond with greater confidence and calm. Therapy provides a space to reflect, reset, and develop tools that support a more connected, intentional, and sustainable parenting experience.

Sara Deese
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, MCAP, LMHC-QS
Parenting is one of the most rewarding—and most challenging—roles you'll ever take on. Whether you're navigating tantrums, teen struggles, blended family dynamics, or simply trying to parent more intentionally, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed at times. I work with parents to explore what’s working, what’s not, and how to build stronger, more connected relationships with their children. Together, we’ll develop practical tools, boost your confidence, and help you parent with greater clarity, compassion, and calm—even during the hard moments.

Parenting
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anytime we work with a child, we want to work with the parent, not because the parent might be doing something wrong, but because as a parent you have the single greatest influence in your child's life. Anything that goes from me to your child just is not nearly as effective as anything that goes from you to your child. So we partner with the parents and the child and utilize a collaborative plan.

Karen Hammack
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting is hard! Children are a joy, and bring much happiness, but the act of parenting in today's world brings a great deal of stress. Many couples don't have the family support that existed in past generations, leaving them on their own to figure out how to parent, and how to have a relationship in the midst of it. Even with family support, there are many demands on your time and attention, and it can be hard to figure out they right rhythm for your family. This is even more so if you are a single parent, looking for support and/or guidance in this phase of life.
