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.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not only a parent of three teenagers, I've also dedicated the bulk of my career to helping parents and their pre-teens and teens. I started a residential treatment center for adolescents as well as a therapeutic boarding school, was a psychologist for an outdoor adventure therapy program, was a therapist at an inner city group home for teenage boys, and the lead therapist on the adolescent wing of a locked psychiatric hospital and a group life coordinator at a juvenile corrections facility. Parenting is challenging and none of us are perfect. Great job seeking guidance and taking action to become the best parent you can be.
