My ideal client is a mom who feels overwhelmed and unsure if her current parenting approach is working. She may be dealing with frequent tantrums, defiance, or ongoing behavior challenges and finds herself reacting in ways that don’t align with the parent she wants to be. She needs practical, compassionate support that helps her understand why behaviors are happening and how to respond more effectively. Her goals are to reduce unwanted behaviors, increase her own self-awareness, feel calmer and more confident in her parenting, and build a more connected relationship with her child. Ultimately, she wants to feel empowered, supported,
I specialize in supporting moms navigating parenting stress and behavior challenges. With an ABA-informed approach, I help parents understand unwanted behaviors, build effective strategies, increase self-awareness, and respond with confidence, consistency, and compassion.
Parenting can feel overwhelming, isolating, and exhausting, especially when behaviors don’t improve despite your best efforts. You don’t have to figure it out alone. I offer a supportive, practical space to build understanding, confidence, and strategies that truly fit your family.
