Baya Mebarek, In-Office Couple Therapy & Online Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., LMFT
The Key to successful parenting is based on your deepest feeling of love and affection for your child, and it is demontrated simply through empathy and understanding. Good parenting begins in your heart, and continues in the way you engage your child when feelings run high, when they are sad, angry or scared. The heart of parenting is being there in a particular way when it really counts.

Lauren Blalock
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
We all want what is best for our children. We all strive to be the best parent possible. We also, all fall short of our ideals at times. This doesn’t make us bad parents, it makes us human.
The fact you are here looking for guidance as a parent, tells me you are already a pretty good one. Being a good parent is more that reading all the books, it’s about examining what’s going on for us now, how we show up in the world and even how we were raised, to understand how our unconscious selves effect our parenting. We bring all of our ourselves, even the parts we don’t like, to our role as parent. Because it can be the hardest job in the world, we can all use support as we navigate it. Please email or call today for a free consultation.

Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Parent coaching is frequently a focus of the work I do. I support parents in shifting out of using anger and intimidation while at the same time maintaining healthy authority and responsibility with their kids. Often I assist in developing and implementing rewards based behavior management strategies, as well as in integrating positive parenting approaches. Reunification of parents with children when their has been some kind of disruption to their parenting relationship is an area in which I have considerable experience, as is helping divorced and divorcing couples effectively co-parent.

Stephanie Brumfield
Therapist, MSW, ASW, PPSC
In the labyrinth of motherhood, many women find themselves navigating through its lesser-spoken, shadowy corridors, confronting the underworld of motherhood where challenges like role adjustment, traumatic births, breastfeeding struggles, and feelings of inadequacy and isolation loom large. My practice offers a beacon of support and understanding for mothers and stepmothers grappling with these harsh realities, providing a safe, compassionate space to voice and heal from the unanticipated trials of mothering. Beyond the immediate demands of parenthood, I delve into the emotional layers underpinning the journey, including the navigation of complex trauma, the healing of ancestral and mother wounds, and the spiritual dimensions of conception and fertility. Whether it's breaking the cycles of past traumas, reconciling with the emotional aftermath of pregnancy loss, or embarking on the sacred journey of connecting with one’s spirit baby, my approach is holistic, recognizing the profound interconnection between personal healing and nurturing life. I stand with those courageous enough to transform their shadows into strength, guiding them towards healing, belonging, and a deeper, more fulfilling experience of motherhood and stepmotherhood.
