Parenting can be stressful and demanding, and parents often struggle with the work/life balance. Most parents feel strongly about being the best parents they can be, and at the same time, struggle to do so. Many parents benefit from parent guidance tailored for their children's needs.

Natasha Lacey
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC-S
Parenting can bring love and meaning while also creating stress, guilt, uncertainty, and conflict. I support parents who are struggling with communication, emotional or behavioral concerns, parent-child relationships, changing family dynamics, or simply wondering whether they are handling things the “right” way. Therapy can help you better understand both your child’s needs and your own responses as a parent.

Jessica Torres Kreidt
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, NCC, CCTP (CA: LPCC#17935)
I believe in the importance of collaboration because there is no such thing as 'just a child'—there is always a child and the relationships that surround them. That’s why I work closely with parents when supporting children and teens, ensuring a holistic approach to their care. Together, we discuss treatment goals and progress, fostering a supportive environment that nurtures the well-being of the young individuals. This partnership strengthens the effectiveness of therapy, promoting positive growth and development to help children and teens thrive both in and out of therapy.

Akron's identity as the 'Rubber City' — once the world capital of tire manufacturing — has given way to a post-industrial economy navigating transformation, and therapists here frequently address the long-term psychological effects of deindustrialization: economic stress, community grief, and the identity challenges of a workforce that has had to reinvent itself across generations. The city is home to the University of Akron and has a growing health sciences and polymer science sector, creating a more economically diverse population than its industrial reputation suggests. Summa Health and Cleveland Clinic Akron General provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community concentrated in West Akron, Fairlawn, and the Highland Square neighborhood. Akron's significant Black community and the city's ongoing recovery from decades of economic decline shape a therapy culture in which community resilience and racial equity are recurring clinical themes.
