Debra Zand
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting therapy helps parents identify, address, and manage their own past or present experiences that may be affecting the way they relate to their child. In some cases, parenting therapy may also help parents better communicate between each other to maintain a cohesive and structured parenting approach. Parenting therapy provides a judgement-free zone for parents to discuss tough moments in parenting and learn how to better manage these tough moments moving forward. Overall, parenting therapy aims to provide parents with the necessary knowledge, tools, guidance, and support to take care of themselves and their children in the most ideal way possible.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
Parenting is not for the faint of heart. In my work with parents, I focus on providing a warm, supportive, and collaborative environment to help them navigate the challenges of parenting in today’s world. I understand that parents face unique pressures and that children and adolescents today encounter complex issues, from social media influences to academic stress. I work closely with parents to use their creativity and imagination in finding engaging and meaningful ways to connect with and support their children. Whether it’s developing more engaging and impactful communication strategies or creating special bonding activities, I help parents explore approaches that resonate with their children and foster positive relationships. Additionally, I assist parents in addressing and healing their own childhood wounds, which can sometimes impact their parenting responses. By working through these personal challenges, parents can approach their roles with greater clarity and empathy, ultimately enhancing their ability to nurture and guide their children more successfully across each unique developmental stage.

Cascade Psychological Services, PLLC
Psychologist, PsyD, PMH-C
Parenthood can activate powerful feelings about responsibility, identity, attachment, and one’s own childhood. I work with adults navigating parental anxiety, guilt, overwhelm, changing partnerships, and the tension between caring for a child and retaining a sense of self, helping them respond with greater flexibility and self-understanding.
