I was a preschool teacher in a parent cooperative school for 25 years early in my career.
Most of the families or individuals coming to me over the years have hit a rough patch of circumstances --- or a life cycle period that presents challenges for them.

As a new parent, you are not alone.
Your pregnancy and postpartum experience can feel exciting but also disorienting, challenging with moments of unfamiliar anxiety, stress or depression. There is no best way to be a parent, only the way that is best for you. As a perinatal mental health specialist I offer practical support as well as a deeper exploration into your parenting experience. I will work with you to uncover the wise inner parent that already exists within you.

Especially in today's world, parenting adolescents can feel like a no-win situation. My goal is to help parents and teens see "eye-to-eye" and understand each other's perspectives and goals in a way that results in collaboration rather than the typical resistance that occurs in adolescence.

Do you feel more stressed than you feel is ok? Do tears fall easily and seemingly without cause? These have been extraordinary times and we know that everyone is struggling to find their way. We want to feel better, but we aren’t sure how to do that. Helping people learn to manage feelings and emotions offers a kind of strength and power that we all deserve. It is achievable to feel like you can handle all that life will throw at you.

I work with mothers at all stages of parenting.
Everyday you get up, you get dressed, and you try to pretend like you are okay. You show up for your partner, your kids, and your job, but inside you are questioning everything you do. Constantly you compare yourself to others and you wish that you could just feel good enough. There are things you want to do, but you can’t seem to make a decision and move forward. So you stay stuck and feel like a failure that you can’t be the best version of yourself. Women are particularly good at pushing themselves to do more, be more, and give more. It is hard to take care of yourself and create space to unpack your thoughts and emotions.

Parenting Therapists

What does therapy for parenting look like?

Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?

When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?

Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?

Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
