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.

Marina Goldenberg
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC
Many parents would agree that though they read the books, and took the classes, and maybe even spent time taking care of children before having their own, they still felt unprepared for parenthood. There are as many reasons why as there are parents, but at the end of the day, it's impossible to be completely prepared for parenting because you just don't know what you don't know. And when you do know it, you still may not know how to make that knowledge work. Parenting, even at the best of times, can be exhausting and stressful, but add on all the other things that complicate our lives - careers, money worries, romantic, platonic and family relationships, other people's expectations and judgments, the lack of support, single parenthood, you name it - and things get harder and harder. And what if your child has special or different needs? It's not easy being a kid, and watching your kid struggle, either with health issues, or mental health, or academics or peer relationships, or literally any of the countless other things that kids have to navigate, can feel like an impossible task. And on top of that you're somehow supposed to take care of yourself and pay the bills? Well look, I can't take those stressors away, but I can help you figure out how to navigate the (maybe literal, maybe figurative) sh!tstorm that is modern parenting, take gentler care of yourself and cultivate a life that honors your values and your hopes and wishes for yourself, your family and your child.

Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Parenting is one of the most rewarding and most challenging roles an adult can take on — and yet it is one of the areas where people are least likely to ask for help. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I work with parents navigating parenting stress, child behavioral challenges, co-parenting conflict, blended family dynamics, parenting after divorce, and the emotional weight of raising children through difficult seasons. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and solution-focused intervention, I help parents develop practical tools, healthier communication patterns, and greater confidence in their role. Telehealth parenting therapy available across 40+ states.

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 .
