Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Parenting can bring deep joy and connection, but it can also come with stress, self-doubt, and the pressure to get everything right. You may feel overwhelmed by competing demands, struggle with guilt about whether you're doing enough, or find yourself reacting in ways that don't align with the parent you want to be. Therapy offers a space to explore these challenges without judgment, better understand your emotional responses, and reflect on how your own experiences may influence your parenting. Together, we can work toward greater self-compassion, more intentional responses during difficult moments, and a stronger understanding of your needs alongside those of your family. My goal is to help you navigate parenting with greater confidence, flexibility, and connection while making room for your own well-being, too.

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.

Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
Sure, you and your partner knew parenting would have its challenges, but you were not quite prepared for how much of your energy it would take and how little you would have left for each other. Your relationship feels rocky in ways you never imagined, you are tired and overstimulated, and the additional mental load (do their clothes still fit? did I fill out that form? which brand of toasted oat cereal will they actually eat?) is soul-crushing. You may feel hesitant to add something else to your to do list, but couple therapy could be a key component of what pulls you out of that state of burnout. You need an experienced couple therapist to help you to feel heard and understood by your partner, to break out of unhelpful communication patterns, and to reclaim some of your time for your needs as an individual and as a couple.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
Parenting reactivates your own childhood, usually without announcing that it is doing so. The parents I work with tend to be thoughtful and deliberate, determined not to repeat what was done to them, and then startled by their own reactivity at bedtime. Mentalization-Based Treatment is particularly useful in parenting work: holding your child's mind in mind — wondering what a behavior means rather than only responding to it — is a learnable skill, and it is also what most reliably interrupts a generational pattern. We also work on repair, which matters more than getting it right, and on the guilt that makes repair hard to offer.
