Karen Hartfield, MA, LMHC, Fearless Heart Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Sandplay Therapist with STA
I work with people regarding their parenting challenges, by looking at the parenting style with which they were raised and at the expectations they bring to the table, and how this impacts their own experience. We also look at practical ways of dealing with particular situations.

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.

Dr. Lynne Logan
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Parenting will be one of the most challenging events of your life -- often a life long journey. With today's stressful outside influences, parents are often confused about what to do or how to help their children. Children and teens are faced with options and decisions never before a part of childhood. Parents need helpful tools and ideas -- and how to be consistent in parenting.

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.)

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Parenting puts enormous pressure on a relationship. Sleep deprivation, disagreements about discipline, and the loss of time as a couple can leave partners feeling more like co-managers than companions. I help parents get back on the same team, handle conflict without drawing children into it, and protect their relationship during demanding seasons. I also work with blended families as they sort out new roles, loyalties, and routines.
