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.

Kody Evans
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Parenting can bring challenges that affect not only your relationship with your child, but also your partnership, stress level, and confidence in the decisions you are making. Differences in parenting styles, communication, changing family roles, or concerns about your child can create tension throughout the family. Therapy can help you better understand these dynamics, strengthen communication, and develop a more intentional approach to parenting. My work focuses on helping parents navigate challenges while building healthier relationships within the family.

Andrew D. Sapp
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not only a parent of three teenagers, I've also dedicated the bulk of my career to helping parents and their pre-teens and teens. I started a residential treatment center for adolescents as well as a therapeutic boarding school, was a psychologist for an outdoor adventure therapy program, was a therapist at an inner city group home for teenage boys, and the lead therapist on the adolescent wing of a locked psychiatric hospital and a group life coordinator at a juvenile corrections facility. Parenting is challenging and none of us are perfect. Great job seeking guidance and taking action to become the best parent you can be.

Lee Chase
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As parents of adult children, there are times when we struggle in our relationships with them. There may be sustained conflict, and ingrained patterns of relating that have thwarted your ability to enjoy each other. We will review these patterns of communication, conflict, and discuss new ways of approaching your interactions with your adult children in order to have a more meaningful relationship with them.

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.
