Parenting: The Ultimate Systemic Challenge
Moving from Survival to Connection
Parenting is perhaps the most profound "attachment laboratory" we will ever enter. It has the power to bring up our greatest joys and our deepest "ghosts" from the past. In my practice, I move beyond standard "behavioral tips" to help parents understand the relational system at play. Whether you are navigating the "toddler years," the "teen years," or the complex transition into adult-child relationships, I provide a space to parent with intention rather than reactivity.
Navigating the Modern Parenting System
Today’s parents are facing unprecedented levels of burnout and overwhelmed by "expert" advice. We work together to find your voice in the noise, addressing:
The "Parental Melt Down": Understanding the neurobiology of why we "flip our lids" and learning somatic tools to stay within your Window of Tolerance when your child is out of theirs.
Neurodivergent Parenting: Providing specialized support for parents of neurodivergent children, or for neurodivergent parents themselves, navigating sensory overstimulation and executive functioning demands.
The Cycle of Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing how our own childhood wounds can make a child’s natural independence feel like a personal rejection.
A Research-Backed, Heart-Centered Approach
With over 20 years of experience and a PhD in Child and Family Studies, I integrate high-level theory with practical, everyday application:
Attachment-Based Parenting: Using Attachment Theory to move away from "power struggles" and toward a secure base where your child feels seen, safe, and soothed.
Systems Theory & Family Dynamics: We look at the "hidden" roles everyone plays in the family. How does the stress in the marriage, the workplace, or the social system impact the child’s behavior?
Parenting through Transition: Supporting families through the "big shifts"—divorce, moving, new siblings, or spiritual deconstruction—ensuring the family bond remains resilient.
Supporting the "Helper" Parent
I have a deep commitment to working with therapists and pastors as parents. It is uniquely difficult to hold space for others all day and then come home to the raw, unfiltered demands of a family. I provide a confidential sanctuary where you can take off the "expert" hat and find the support you need to be the parent you want to be.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
With over 25 years of experience working with families and children ages 0–18, I provide parenting consultation, diagnostic feedback, and support for behavioral and emotional concerns. I integrate family systems, attachment, behavioral strategies, IFS, and mindfulness to help parents strengthen relationships and create stability. I also collaborate with prescribers on medication management when appropriate. My diagnostic expertise ensures clarity in identifying developmental, emotional, or relational needs and tailoring recommendations that fit the family system. In addition, I offer a clinical evaluation and consultation to address any diagnostic concerns parents may have and make treatment recommendations based on this assessment.

Seth Frank
Marriage and Family Therapist, MMFT, M.Div, AMFT
You might love your kids more than anything... and still find yourself feeling stretched thin, constantly second-guessing, or wondering if you're doing enough. Parenting has a way of bringing up old wounds, testing your patience, and stirring up guilt or self-doubt, even when you're trying your best. As you are navigating tantrums, teen years, or the quiet chaos of daily life, you might just need a space to breathe, reset, and feel like you again. I can help. (Look at my practice details to see more about what it would look like to work together.)

Glyndora Condon LPC of Heal and Hope Counseling Services, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, Masters, Marriage and Family Therapy; Licensed Professional Counseling
I believe, as do my colleagues at Heal and Hope Counseling Services, LLC; that parenting is the most important position and job that any person can have since parents are front line and center of the lives and well-being of others; and we nor they will get a second chance at life. Teaching character traits with each task and lesson is paramount. We teach parenting for all age groups and are aware how screens are directly effecting the brain, development, and dysfunction of our children.
10 Years Experience
Online in Memphis, TN Tennessee
Memphis has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime in the United States, and its therapists frequently specialize in trauma, PTSD, and the psychological effects of chronic community-level violence and economic stress. The city's African American community — which comprises a majority of the population and carries a rich cultural heritage rooted in blues, soul, and civil rights history — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. Regional One Health and Baptist Memorial Health Care provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of community clinics. Memphis's deep musical identity sustains a creative community with its own distinctive mental health needs around artistic expression, economic precarity, and the weight of legacy.
