Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
I help parents—whether on their own or with a partner—meet the challenges of parenting with steadiness and clarity. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—stress, uncertainty, and competing values—and turn that understanding into workable steps for communication, boundaries, and repair. The aim is durable change—less reactivity and second-guessing, more alignment, warmth, and confidence in how you respond to your children and, when pertinent, to one another.

Dr. Amy Hecht
Psychologist, PhD
I work with parents at all stages, from early childhood through adolescence, helping them navigate the often complex and evolving challenges of raising children. Parenting can be deeply meaningful, but also demanding, and many parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stretched in ways they didn’t anticipate.
My approach focuses on helping parents better understand their child’s emotional and developmental needs, while also making space for their own experience. I work collaboratively to strengthen connection, improve communication, and address patterns that may be contributing to conflict or stress within the family.
I also bring particular sensitivity to parenting within adoptive, donor-conceived, and other non-traditional families, where additional layers of identity, communication, and connection may emerge over time.
Above all, I aim to support parents in feeling more confident, grounded, and effective—so they can show up for their children with both clarity and compassion.

Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I support parents who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, reactive, or uncertain about how to navigate the challenges of parenting. Together, we explore how your own childhood experiences, attachment patterns, beliefs, and nervous-system responses may influence the way you respond to your children, particularly during moments of stress or emotional intensity. My work helps parents develop greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and compassion for themselves while learning to respond to their children from a more grounded and connected place. The goal is not to become a perfect parent, but to build a more secure, attuned relationship with your child while also healing the parts of yourself that may be activated through the parenting journey.
