Melissa LaCour
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Parenting is one of the most humbling experiences a person can have — and one of the least supported. I work with parents navigating the emotional weight of raising children, particularly adoptive and foster parents whose parenting journey carries layers that traditional parenting resources rarely address. Whether you're trying to understand a child's behavior through an attachment lens, navigating conversations about identity and belonging, or simply trying to show up for your family while also taking care of yourself, this is a space where parenting's real complexity gets the attention it deserves.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Each kid is so different. What works for one, may be a fraughtful approach with another. I can help you to understand your child (or adult child) better, and find better ways to work with and relate to them. When we run out of ideas, we often try to accomplish things with power. This likely ends in a power struggle characterized by defiance and escalation only to expose that we don't have that much power after all. There are better ways to communicate. Our models of parenting are often outdated and what we learned may actually make things more difficult. I will help you to identify what works best for you child and support you and your needs in the process.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Parenting can be one of life's most meaningful and rewarding experiences, while also bringing significant challenges, uncertainty, and emotional demands. Navigating children's developmental needs, family relationships, differing parenting approaches, and the complexities of balancing care for others with one's own well-being can sometimes feel overwhelming. Drawing on relational strategies, I help parents better understand themselves, their children, and the relational patterns that shape family interactions. My approach emphasizes empathy, authenticity, open communication, and respect for each family member's unique experiences and needs. Rather than prescribing a single approach to parenting, I work collaboratively with parents to explore their values, strengthen emotional connections, navigate challenges, and develop more intentional and compassionate ways of relating to their children.

Jenna Labbe-Watson
Psychologist, Psy. D.
As parents, we are sorting out what kind of humans we want to raise and how we parent our kids today so that they are healthy grown-ups and good community members later. As Alfie Kohn says, sometimes we find ourselves being permissive until we can't stand our kids anymore and then becoming authoritarian until we can't stand ourselves anymore. I can help you articulate your long-term goals for your kids and align your parenting today to support that vision. At the heart of this is your ability to regulate your own nervous system so you can hold on to your values even in the midst of upset. I am trained in a model of therapy (AEDP) that supports a attunement to the body and the emotions, allowing you to mindfully come back to baseline. My approach to parenting has been especially influenced by Alfie Kohn, Kim John Payne, and Vicki Hoefle.
