“As a mom of four kids ranging from teenage years to a toddler, I've faced my share of challenges, especially with sleep transitions for my youngest. Working with Caren has been an absolute game-changer. She is not only compassionate and intelligent but also has an incredible knack for understanding the unique needs of each child and family. Her advice is always spot-on — she's reasonable and practical, never sugarcoating the truth, yet delivering it with so much love and empathy that you feel completely supported.
With her guidance, we made the right decisions every step of the way, and I could see a real difference in my toddler's sleep routine and overall mood. I truly appreciate how she balances being direct with being deeply caring, always focused on what's best for the child and the family. I couldn't have asked for a better partner in navigating these transitions. I wholeheartedly recommend Caren Gitlin to any parent seeking a supportive, insightful, and genuinely wonderful therapist!”

“Working with Synthia was a game-changer for me as a parent. I came in feeling overwhelmed, worried that my own childhood trauma would influence how I raise my child. Synthia gave me the tools to break the cycle—helping me recognize my triggers and manage them in a healthy way. I now have a deeper understanding of how to parent with intention and compassion, rather than out of fear or reaction. I’m more confident, patient, and able to create a nurturing environment for my child, free from the weight of my past. I highly recommend Synthia to any parent who wants to raise their children with love and mindfulness.”

“Caren is such a kind, knowledgeable, and gentle coach! She clearly cares deeply about children, childhood, and parenting, and is a wealth of information and resources! She has been in the trenches with her own children, which allows her to bring first-hand experience, wisdom, and empathy to her coaching. She helped me to work through the common topics of feeding, sleeping, teething, and tantrums, as well as the less talked about and more nuanced subjects of race, gender identity, partner roles, unsolicited advice, and difficult conversations with partners, parents, and in-laws. She approached each of these conversations in a warm and non-judgmental manner that made me feel at ease amidst the chaos, hormones, and exhaustion of new motherhood.”

“Synthia has been a guiding force for my family as we navigate the many chapters of first-time parenthood. Her mindful parenting approach has helped us learn new ways to nurture, narrate and navigate amidst moments of challenge and discomfort. I am forever grateful for her expert ability to add to my parenting toolbox while providing perspective on child development fundamentals (in a way only a seasoned mother can sprinkle into a session)! We have worked with Synthia for over 5 years now - it has been priceless to participate in both parenting groups and individual sessions. Her professional support and loving heart are a precious part of our family’s confidence and ability to maintain a growth mindset. I cannot say enough about her gift as a Coach and mentor.“
