Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being a parent is a tough. Regardless of the age of your child(ren), it can be easy to feel stuck or overwhelmed when trying to navigate the complexities of your child's development. It's common for parents to feel overwhelmed, burnt out, or exhausted, especially when trying to discover the best approaches for you and your family. In our sessions, we partner together to work through parenting challenges while gaining deeper understanding and compassion for both you and your child. We can build additional insights into the expectations you hold for yourself and your family, while uncovering how many of these beliefs may have been shaped by your own experiences and upbringing. Using your values to guide the way, our sessions focus on developing and tailoring parenting strategies that align with the type of relationship you want to foster with your child, and that can support greater cohesion, respect for your and your child's humanness, and increased connection.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
Parenting can evoke deep attachment patterns and stir unresolved emotions from our own childhoods. I work with parents to understand these dynamics, increase self-compassion, and cultivate relational attunement that supports both their children and themselves.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work with adults navigating the emotional and psychological demands of parenting, including those parenting alone or alongside other significant pressures. Parenting often brings long-standing patterns into sharper focus, affecting identity, relationships, boundaries, and how people respond under stress.
My work draws on Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering ways to explore how parenting experiences interact with internal expectations, responsibilities, and emotional load. Rather than focusing on parenting techniques, sessions centre on understanding how you are impacted by the role and how different parts of you respond to it. We may work through conversation, creative exploration, or a combination of both, depending on what feels most useful.

Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.
