Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
The pressure to be the perfect parent and professional is immense and intense. Our culture covets the perfect life and cultivates a narrative that you can have it all if you just try hard enough. In my most professional capacity, I call NONSENSE on that (insert more forceful word if you'd like). Holistic Life Coaching can be a powerful experience in which we examine, explore, and elevate your own definition of successful parenting, empowering your parental presence according to YOUR values, character, and strengths. I am NOT offering therapy—I leave the work of diagnosis and treatment of medical issues to medical professionals. However, coaching can absolutely complement and supplement any therapy work you are doing; our work together will be therapeutic without being therapy. I offer tools that can increase ease, support the maintenance of positive healthy boundaries, increase satisfaction in your life, improve communication and connection with your children, and so much more. Let's talk about what being a parent means to you.

Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help parents manage the stress, pressure, and emotional demands that come with raising children while also trying to maintain their own well-being, relationships, and responsibilities. Many parents struggle with guilt, overwhelm, irritability, decision fatigue, or feeling like they are never doing enough. In therapy, we work on improving emotional regulation, communication, boundaries, and practical coping strategies. My goal is to help parents feel more grounded, confident, and connected in both parenting and personal life.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Modern parenting is fraught and complicated in ways that are unprecedented. Expectations have never been higher while conflicting opinions have never been more overwhelming and easily available. Parents need support to clear out the noise and get in touch with their intuitive knowledge of their own children as well as take care of themselves to show up for their kiddos. My work with parents is practical and informative while also affirming of their own values and priorities for family life.
