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.

Jessie Biles
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Nearly all families deal with some sort of stress or conflict at one point or another. In the middle of what can seem like the most difficult time for your family, actually lies opportunity. I can help family members begin to understand one another better, improve their communication, and resolve conflicts, leading to healthier and more secure relationships. Through parenting sessions, I will work with you to learn more about your parenting style, and develop new understanding and skills to work with your child so the decisions you make are right for your family. Your family is the most powerful resource. Let’s strengthen it together.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
As a parent myself, I understand how challenging and overwhelming parenthood can be. I offer support to parents navigating the emotional, relational, and identity shifts that come with raising children, especially during the early years of parenthood.
I have a particular focus on supporting mothers experiencing postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, and the emotional intensity that can come with major hormonal, physical, and life changes after having a baby. During this time, so much can feel out of balance- your body is adjusting, your relationships with partners may shift, sleep and self-care become limited, and you are constantly adapting to your child’s changing developmental stages.
Parenting often comes with a deep desire to “do the right thing,” while also being surrounded by an overwhelming amount of external advice, opinions, and expectations. Many parents I work with feel anxious, uncertain, and afraid of being judged or making mistakes, even while doing their best to care for their child and manage their household.
In our work together, I aim to provide a grounded, reassuring space where you can feel supported rather than judged. We work on reducing anxiety, strengthening confidence, and reconnecting you with your own instincts. I believe that parents, especially mothers, are often their child’s greatest advocate and expert, even when self-doubt makes that hard to feel. My role is to help you trust yourself again, feel less alone, and move through each stage of parenting with more clarity, compassion, and steadiness.
