S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
I have built my family therapy practice around working intensely with parents. I believe that parents are the agents of change in the family due to their status as leaders and their position of authority. Parents have it hard these days, especially since they are working with outdated tools. The parenting research has evolved tremendously over the past ten to fifteen years and parents have been left in the dark. I bring this new science into my work as I help parents shift their lens from an authoritarian style to positive, relationship-based approach. Parents learn to shift their mindset from seeing their child as misbehaving, lazy or unmotivated to stressed, fearful or confused. Children do not give their parents a hard time. They are having a hard time. Most importantly, when parents can change the way that they see their children, their children will change.

Sonny Granade
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
The way we parent our own children is inevitably informed by how we were raised in our family of origin: by what we liked about it, as well as how it may have caused us harm. I work with my clients to reflect on how they were raised and to explore their beliefs about how they are raising (or would like to raise) their own children. This exploration often opens the door to rich and healing conversations about how parenting (and re-parenting ourselves) reflects our values and sense of purpose in life.

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Having worked as a school counselor and youth pastor, I am well acquainted with the unique challenges a parent faces. Not only is every child different but every parent is different. In our work together I will help you and your child find a groove that feels good and allows for deeper and more meaning connection. Not only will I provide you practical tools you can use that day, but I will also share perspectives that will help you stay in connection with them through every stage of their development.

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.

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.

The GRIT Kids Philosophy:
GRIT Kids exists to support parents and caregivers in the essential work of nurturing self-awareness in their children, from the earliest developmental stages and beyond.

At Well Coached Life, we recognize that forming a self-identity and learning to live with intention are vital life skills for children.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LCPC, PPS
Parenting support is for all of the many challenges that can occur for those of us who become parents. Parenting at each stage brings specific and unique challenges, and there are also unique challenges that we each experience as parents that are unique to each child. Parenting is a very hard, beautiful job. I support parents throughout the whole journey. I am a mom to two school-aged kids. In the past, I have worked as a School Counselor and School-based therapist with kids ages K-12, often and currently I work with parents of HSP/neurodivergent and/or gifted kids, and I've worked with tweens and teens and their parents who were navigating struggles with substance use issues.

Ana Velouise, Perinatal Mental Health Specialist
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
If you’re in the thick of a new phase of parenthood where none of your previous coping skills seem to be working, therapy can help. The ways in which children hold a mirror up to ourselves can be an emotional experience. You also may be processing your own childhood and shifting intergenerational patterns, both of which can feel intensely isolating. Together, let's process your experiences, develop new tools and skills to meet your current parenting phase, and integrate it all into your parenting narrative.
