Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Parenting can be incredibly challenging, especially without a manual and with constantly changing research on effective strategies. The pressure to be a "pinterest parent" can add to the overwhelm. If you often find yourself thinking, "I'm failing my kids," or "I'm not doing enough," let's work together to shift those negative narratives. We can focus on fostering a deeper connection with yourself and your children, explore evidence-based parenting skills, and examine the beliefs and thoughts that influence your responses as a parent. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone—let's work through it together.

“...not get so stressed out about every thing.”
“...find out how to get out of doing busy-work.”
“...know what to do when I get teased for being smart.”
“...convince my mom that I don’t always have to get A+ .”

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Boy is parenting hard! Tough love is always tougher on the parent than the child. I have been teaching parenting classes and working with parent for over 24 years. I listen to parents describe their children and their unique situation and collect the data to inform the suggestions I give them. Children need boundaries so they can test them and know they are safe and loved. They also need consequences to motivate them to learn and grow. All parents want to launch successful secure independent young adults so I teach parents how to implement early interventions to meet that goal.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas
Psychologist, PsyD
Working with parents on parenting concerns in therapy has been an enriching and impactful part of my practice. Understanding the significant role that parenting plays in child development and family dynamics, I approach these sessions with empathy, collaboration, and a strengths-based perspective. By fostering open dialogue and actively listening, I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where parents can explore their concerns, challenges, and goals. Leveraging evidence-based practices and my expertise in child development, I offer practical guidance, psychoeducation, and skill-building exercises to help parents nurture positive parent-child relationships, establish healthy boundaries, and support their children's social, emotional, and cognitive growth.
