Helping children, adolescents, and their families is important to me. Having spent 17 years working with children in educational settings, I understand the struggles families face when dealing with behavioral and social issues, poor academic performance, learning disabilities, and mental health issues. Families may be faced with unexpected challenges such as loss of a loved one, loss of a job, or divorce. Not being able to help your child or teen with problems they face, or not being able to bring your family together as a loving unit can be frustrating and disheartening as a parent.

When things start to feel like they are too much, do you bottle up your emotions? Or maybe you explode? Do you find that as much as you try to move on, your past experiences still hold you back? Maybe you’ve recently gone through something difficult and it feels like you can’t get back to yourself. Maybe you say yes to everyone because you’re afraid what will happen if you say no - leaving your needs on the back burner. Maybe you’re worried about your child. Maybe you and your spouse are struggling to communicate. Maybe your brain runs a mile a minute and you can’t slow it down. Whatever the case, you want to feel better.
