Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a parent is a tough. Regardless of the age of your child(ren), it can be easy to feel stuck or overwhelmed when trying to navigate the complexities of your child's development. It's common for parents to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or exhausted, especially when trying to discover the best approaches for you and your family. In our sessions, we partner together to work through parenting challenges while gaining deeper understanding and compassion for both you and your child. We can build additional insights into the expectations you hold for yourself and your family, while uncovering how many of these beliefs may have been shaped by your own experiences and upbringing. Using your values to guide the way, our sessions focus on developing and tailoring parenting strategies that align with the type of relationship you want to foster with your child, and that can support greater cohesion, respect for your and your child's humanness, and increased connection.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Modern parenting is fraught and complicated in ways that are unprecedented. Expectations have never been higher while conflicting opinions have never been more overwhelming and easily available. Parents need support to clear out the noise and get in touch with their intuitive knowledge of their own children as well as take care of themselves to show up for their kiddos. My work with parents is practical and informative while also affirming of their own values and priorities for family life.

I understand the profound impact a child's challenging behavior can have on the entire family. It strains parental relationships and takes an emotional toll on daily interactions with your child. The journey might feel overwhelming, but there is hope!
As a nationally certified provider of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I specialize in bringing about transformative changes in children's behaviors, turning family dynamics from stress-ridden to harmonious.

What sets PCIT apart is its proven effectiveness, backed by over 30 years of research. It's not just a treatment; it's a powerful solution designed for children grappling with behavioral and emotional difficulties. The "secret sauce" lies in the live coaching sessions, where I’ll support you, implementing PCIT tools in real-time.
