Parenting

Parenting is one of the most meaningful roles you’ll ever take on, and one of the most demanding. You love your children deeply. You’re doing your best. But some days, it feels like too much. The exhaustion. The second-guessing. The moments when you feel disconnected from your partner, your child, or even yourself. You’re not failing. You’re human. And you're not alone.

At Integrative Couples Therapy, we work with parents who want to show up with more patience, connection, and confidence—but who also need space to be supported, not just strong. Whether you're in the early days of parenthood, navigating big emotions with your child or teen, or trying to parent well through separation or burnout, we're here to help.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. We offer a supportive space to process what’s hard, rediscover your strengths, and build strategies that work for you and your family.

How We Support Parents

We work with individuals, couples, and families to help parents thrive at every stage. Our support includes:

Adjustment to Parenthood
The transition into parenting can be both beautiful and disorienting. If you're experiencing anxiety, sadness, irritability, or overwhelm, we’ll help you process the emotional shift, feel more grounded, and reconnect to yourself in the midst of caring for a new life.

Parenting a Child with Emotional or Behavioral Challenges
When your child is struggling, it can bring up fear, frustration, and self-doubt. We help parents of children with ADHD, anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges understand their child’s needs and respond with clarity, compassion, and confidence.

Parent Burnout
Being constantly “on” can wear anyone down. If you feel depleted, resentful, or like you're running on empty, therapy offers a place to breathe, reflect, and find balance—without guilt.

Coparenting Through Separation or Divorce
Separation doesn't end your role as a parent—it reshapes it. We help co-parents communicate more effectively, lower conflict, and create a sense of security and consistency for their children.

Parenting Together as a Team
Different parenting styles can create tension. Whether you're new parents or raising teens, we help couples get aligned on values, improve communication, and work together as a united front.

Blended Families
Blending families takes time, patience, and support. We help stepparents and biological parents navigate complex dynamics, build trust, and create a home where everyone feels seen and valued.

Why It Matters

When parents feel supported, kids thrive. That’s why we focus not just on strategies, but on emotional connection, helping you understand your own experience as a parent so you can lead with empathy and strength. We bring a compassionate, relational approach to every session and tailor our work to your family’s unique needs.
