New Path Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor
Our therapists provide support to parents navigating the joys and challenges of raising children. Whether you're facing challenges with behavior management, communication, discipline, or balancing the demands of family life, we offer practical tools and emotional support to help you thrive in your role as a parent. We work with parents to build stronger connections with their children, foster emotional resilience, and create a positive, supportive family dynamic. Through evidence-based techniques such as parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), mindfulness, and positive discipline strategies, we guide parents in developing a deeper understanding of their child's needs, while also nurturing their own well-being. Our goal is to empower parents to feel confident in their parenting approach, strengthen family relationships, and create a loving, balanced home environment.

Reiss Psychology Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I help parents understand what their teen is experiencing, from the internal experience of anxious or depressive thoughts to the behaviors that often accompany them, so they can respond with empathy rather than frustration or fear. I also coach parents in how to reinforce the skills their teen is learning in session in everyday moments at home. Part of this work involves helping parents recognize their own role in the family system, and adjusting their responses to better support their teen's growth.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
With over 25 years of experience working with families and children ages 0–18, I provide parenting consultation, diagnostic feedback, and support for behavioral and emotional concerns. I integrate family systems, attachment, behavioral strategies, IFS, and mindfulness to help parents strengthen relationships and create stability. I also collaborate with prescribers on medication management when appropriate. My diagnostic expertise ensures clarity in identifying developmental, emotional, or relational needs and tailoring recommendations that fit the family system. In addition, I offer a clinical evaluation and consultation to address any diagnostic concerns parents may have and make treatment recommendations based on this assessment.
