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.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Parenting - "All joy and no fun" is a quote I hear often and it resonates. It has been a great joy and the hardest job. It's hard to know if we are "doing it right" and "I don't want to screw up my kid" are the most common things my clients tell me. Let's talk about your parenting values and how this aligns with your parenting reality to learn some ways to increase your confidence.

Dr. Lindsay Perrin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Becoming a parent is one of the biggest transitions in one's life and can be accompanied by many unexpected feelings. I strive to help new parents adjust to life with kids and to help parents with older kids navigate the complexities of more mature issues.
