Vanessa Hooper
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, PMH-C
Parenting brings up old patterns fast, especially if your own childhood involved relational or attachment trauma. I help you parent from a more intentional place, breaking intergenerational cycles you do not want to repeat, without expecting perfection from yourself.

Nadia Amjoun
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSWAIC, SUDP
Parenting often brings up more than we expect, old patterns, identity shifts, and emotional overwhelm. I help navigate the internal and relational challenges that can arise, especially during transitions like postpartum or early parenthood.

Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Parenting can be deeply meaningful and also emotionally complex, especially when old patterns, stress, and attachment experiences get activated in the day-to-day relationship with your child. Many parents find themselves feeling stretched thin, reactive in ways they don’t fully understand, or carrying guilt and self-criticism even when they are doing their best.
In therapy, we create space to slow down and make sense of what is happening beneath the surface of parenting stress. This includes exploring emotional triggers, nervous system responses, and the ways your own early experiences may be shaping how you show up with your child.
Rather than focusing on “perfect parenting” or quick behavior fixes, this work supports a deeper understanding of your internal experience in moments of overwhelm. From a psychodynamic and trauma-informed lens, we look at how patterns are passed down, and how they can be gently interrupted with awareness, compassion, and support.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we also pay attention to the body-based “felt sense” that often arises in challenging parenting moments — the tightening, urgency, or emotional flooding that can be difficult to think through in real time. Learning to stay with and listen to these internal signals can create more choice, regulation, and responsiveness over time.
This work is not about eliminating difficult emotions in parenting, but about increasing your capacity to stay present with them without becoming overwhelmed or disconnected from yourself.
Many clients find that as their own nervous system becomes more regulated and understood, their relationships with their children begin to shift naturally — with more ease, repair, and connection becoming possible.
This approach is especially supportive for highly sensitive parents, parents navigating trauma histories, and those who want to break intergenerational patterns while staying deeply connected to their children.

Chris Karcher
Psychologist, PsyD
Working with children and teens also means working with parents. I have received many hours of consultation to work more effectively with parents. Being a parent informs my perspective as well.
