Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Parenting might be the world’s hardest job. The everyday stresses of parenting can activate old patterns that make it hard to be the parent you want to be. When kids have special challenges, it can feel impossible to get it right. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you cope with parenting hurdles, understand yourself and your own past better, and make way for lasting, positive change.

Audrey Stempel, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Parents tend to parent their children the way they were parented or the exact opposite. Neither of these strategies are often successful. Parents of a child who may be neurodivergent or struggling with attention or behavioral issues require specialized support tailored to the child. Parenting can be joyful once a management plan is in place and parents learn how to provide the support their child needs.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Boy is parenting hard! Tough love is always tougher on the parent than the child. I have been teaching parenting classes and working with parent for over 24 years. I listen to parents describe their children and their unique situation and collect the data to inform the suggestions I give them. Children need boundaries so they can test them and know they are safe and loved. They also need consequences to motivate them to learn and grow. All parents want to launch successful secure independent young adults so I teach parents how to implement early interventions to meet that goal.

Philadelphia Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PsyD
One of the most important aspects of our work is affecting future generations. A couple’s ability to work well together directly touches their children in a profound way. After even a few months of work together we see couples feeling relief in their parenting together, their children feeling better because they feel better, and the whole family system living harmoniously together. Not only do we help couples develop intimacy, better understand one another, and breathe air and life into their relationship, but we facilitate this in their parenting styles as well.
And parenting is not for the faint of heart! We understand that the well-being of your children is unspeakably important to you and we’re also able to help you through developmental milestones, better understanding how to handle the inevitable rough spots presented to you as they grow.
If you’re in the process of divorcing, co-parenting can be one of the largest challenges. Your children give you the noblest reason to work on issues with your ex. Divorce doesn’t have to be traumatic for your kids, even if it has been for you and your partner. There are definite and concrete ways to support and guide your children through this difficult season. Being supported by a therapist can also provide a venue to safely air grievances and suss them out without fear that your fight will spill over into your parenting or ruin your week. Separation and divorce has no end to frustrations and hurts, even without children in the mix. Add your kids and it becomes almost unbearably heartbreaking and complex. We will help you navigate these rough waters for as long as you might need.
