Parenting is tough. You don’t have to do it alone!

I provide support for every stage, from sleepless nights with a newborn to teenage silence. Here you won’t find rigid rules, shame-based strategies, or unrealistic ideals. Just real-world support. Using evidence-based strategies and insights from 20+ years as a clinical and developmental psychologist, and as a mom of three, I help you understand your child’s brain, build on your strengths, and navigate tough moments.

Remember, just by virtue of seeking support means YOU ARE A GOOD PARENT.

At the heart of Connect with Dr. Carrie is a simple truth: Children thrive when they feel safe, understood, and connected. And so do parents.
