Parenting Support Through Licensed Therapy — Helping You Feel Calmer and More Connected

Being a parent is incredibly rewarding—but also deeply overwhelming. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected, or facing daily stressors like tantrums, bedtime battles, or guilt after losing your patience, you’re not alone. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I specialize in helping parents find calm, set healthy boundaries, and reconnect with their values. Together, we’ll explore strategies that support both you and your child—so you can feel more confident, grounded, and at peace in your role as a parent.

Why seek parenting support?

Parenting doesn’t come with a manual—and even the most loving parents can feel lost, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained. Seeking support doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means you care deeply and want to grow as a parent and person.

You might benefit from parenting therapy if:

  • You feel constantly overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted

  • You often lose your patience or feel guilty after reacting

  • You're unsure how to set healthy boundaries with your child or co-parent

  • You're navigating parenting after infertility, loss, or postpartum struggles

  • You're trying to parent while also healing your own childhood wounds

  • You're feeling disconnected—from your child, partner, or even yourself

Therapy can help you build emotional resilience, learn practical tools, and feel more grounded in your parenting journey.

How therapy can help

Parenting is one of the most meaningful roles we take on—and one of the most emotionally demanding. Whether you're navigating your child’s behavior, processing your own stress, or balancing the emotional weight of infertility or postpartum challenges, therapy offers a space for clarity, healing, and growth.

Through therapy, you can:

  • Develop healthier communication and boundaries with your child or co-parents

  • Learn tools to manage anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm

  • Process feelings of guilt, grief, or frustration in a safe, non-judgmental space

  • Strengthen your confidence and trust in your parenting

  • Understand your own childhood patterns that may be affecting how you show up as a parent

  • Create more peace and emotional regulation in your home and within yourself

Together, we’ll explore what's not working and build new ways to feel more connected, empowered, and supported in your parenting journey.

Common topics I address

Parenting can stir up a wide range of emotions—from deep love and joy to stress, frustration, and self-doubt. Many parents come to therapy wanting to feel more grounded, patient, and connected, but aren't sure where to begin. Whether you're navigating challenges with your child or trying to manage your own emotional health while parenting, therapy can offer the tools and support to help you thrive—not just survive.

Some of the most common parenting concerns I help with include:

  • Feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or emotionally reactive

  • Yelling or losing patience, followed by guilt or shame

  • Anxiety or depression related to parenting roles

  • Difficulty setting healthy, consistent boundaries

  • Parenting after infertility, loss, or postpartum struggles

  • Struggles with co-parenting or blended family dynamics

  • Feeling disconnected from your child or partner

  • Wanting to break cycles from your own childhood

  • Supporting your child through anxiety, sadness, or big emotions

  • Wishing to feel more confident and calm as a parent
