Hi.
I'm Evie Mpras.
I help Moms, Couples & Families
find relief and connection
in the transition to parenthood.
Adjusting to parenthood is hard, and you shouldn't feel alone in the struggle.
I use my expertise in relationships, parenting, and early childhood to help your family foster the loving dynamic you all deserve.
Why the focus on RELATIONSHIPS?
This is the hill I will die on.
As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist working with countless families, I know that:
- most distress stems from relationship conflict
- the route to relief, peace, & joy is much faster when relationships heal
- bringing a child into the home is a FAMILY experience, not an individual experience

And frankly, partners matter too!
