Meghan McGinn
Psychologist, PhD
Sure, you and your partner knew parenting would have its challenges, but you were not quite prepared for how much of your energy it would take and how little you would have left for each other. Your relationship feels rocky in ways you never imagined, you are tired and overstimulated, and the additional mental load (do their clothes still fit? did I fill out that form? which brand of toasted oat cereal will they actually eat?) is soul-crushing. You may feel hesitant to add something else to your to do list, but couple therapy could be a key component of what pulls you out of that state of burnout. You need an experienced couple therapist to help you to feel heard and understood by your partner, to break out of unhelpful communication patterns, and to reclaim some of your time for your needs as an individual and as a couple.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Nobody gives you a manual. And even if they did, it wouldn't cover your kid — the one who doesn't respond the way the books say they should, who pushes every boundary, who you love fiercely and still don't always know how to reach.
Parenting is one of the most meaningful and most depleting things a person can do. I work with parents who are struggling — not because they're doing it wrong, but because it's genuinely hard and they're doing it without enough support.
I have particular experience working with parents of neurodiverse children — kids with ADHD, autism, or both — because I've lived that road myself. I understand the advocacy fatigue, the grief that can come alongside a diagnosis, the way it affects your marriage, your other kids, and your sense of yourself as a parent. You deserve a space to process all of that, not just strategies.
I also work with parents navigating the turbulence of the teen years, co-parenting challenges, blended family dynamics, and the general burnout that comes from giving everything you have and running on empty. Sessions may focus entirely on you as a parent, or run alongside your child's own therapy — whatever best supports your family.
Good parents ask for help. I'd be glad to be part of yours.

Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
As parents, we want to be the best for our children. However, parenting can be challenging due to societal issues, the quest for emotional and personal safety for our children and shaping them to be independent and able to function successfully in life. In therapy, parenting styles as well as personality styles of children can be addressed to provide a more cohesive and structured approach to parenting your particular child and ensuring you are doing the best job for your children.
