Cicek Erdem
Psychologist, PhD
Parenthood often changes us in ways we do not fully anticipate. Alongside love and meaning, it can bring exhaustion, anxiety, grief, resentment, loneliness, shifting identities, and questions about how we want to parent differently than we were parented. You may feel stretched thin, overwhelmed by competing demands, or disconnected from yourself or your partner. Therapy can offer space to slow down, better understand these experiences, and navigate parenting with greater intention, compassion, and support.

Timothy W. Logsdon
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSEd,LMHC,NCC
Kids do not come with manuals. Even more so, kids who have addictions or other heavy needs make it even more difficult and confusing to know what to do and where to turn for help. With experience with Emotionally Disturbed Youth, managing group homes, and working for the county mental health I have deep experience in helping parents to find their way. I will help you see where you may have missed some of the basics of behavioral management, where you may be communicating mixed or unintentional messages and how to guide your child (or adult child) to a better place.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Parenting presents many unexpected stresses and challenges, and struggles with parenting can impact your relationship, life, and even your sense of identity. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with emotions and conflicts that arise as a part of parenting, and learn how you can make choices that are best for you and your children. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, you can understand yourself and your children better.

Nadira Jackson - TherapyWithDira
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
As a parent, I understand deeply how parenting can be both rewarding and exhausting, especially when you’re balancing your own healing while raising children. In our work, we’ll explore your triggers, patterns, and hopes as a parent, so you can respond with more patience and compassion rather than reacting from stress or guilt. My goal is to help you feel grounded and confident in your role, while also nurturing yourself along the way.

Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
Parenting, the most important and most difficult job in an adult's life, is intuitive only if the individual him/herself was parented perfectly. For most of us, some poor parenting strategies modeled by our own parents need to be unlearned and replaced by effective strategies. Being present for your children, listening, being clear and consistent with expectations, and, most importantly, using positive reinforcement, rather than punishment, together set up the loving environment in which children thrive. These strategies can be learned and practiced in session and exercised at home for parents that don't just feel empowered, but actually are empowered, in control, and effective .

Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
Parenting is one of life's most rewarding yet challenging roles, and seeking support is a sign of commitment to your family's well-being. I help parents navigate everything from behavioral challenges and developmental concerns to balancing work-family demands and managing their own stress. My approach provides practical strategies while also addressing the emotional aspects of parenting, helping you become the parent you want to be.

Brooklyn is home to one of the most culturally and economically diverse therapy communities in the United States, with practices concentrated in Park Slope, Fort Greene, Crown Heights, and Williamsburg serving an extraordinarily wide range of backgrounds and needs. The borough's large Caribbean, West African, Haitian, and Orthodox Jewish communities drive sustained demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists who understand the intersection of identity, faith, and mental health. Brooklyn's rapid gentrification and rising rents have become significant mental health stressors, and therapists frequently address the grief of displacement experienced by long-term residents alongside the adjustment challenges of newer arrivals. SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University and Maimonides Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources for a borough of nearly three million people.
