I have lived experience with ADHD personally and as a parent.
I help children and caregivers build skills to regulate emotions during challenging situations without shutting down or lashing out, with an emphasis on collaboration, resilience, and healing from past trauma. I offer practical, strengths-based strategies for children with ADHD, FASD, autism, and anxiety, tailored to neurodivergence, developmental needs, and family dynamics. I also support caregivers in reducing the guesswork around when to apply consequences versus when accommodations are needed.

I offer a safe, inclusive, and gender-affirming space where you can explore, heal, and grow. My work focuses on healing generational trauma—including the kind you may not even realize exists—while helping you understand family and cultural dynamics and strengthen your relationships with yourself and others.

As a parent, stepparent, and counselor with 27 years of public education experience, I understand the many challenges children, adolescents, parents, and families experience throughout the developmental stages of life.
I believe all behavior is communication. Giving children and adolescents opportunities to communicate through their language of play, art, and sand tray, provides them an opportunity to be empowered to understand, heal, grow, and experience hope.

What does therapy for parenting look like?
Therapists may work with parents individually, together, or include the whole family to find solutions for the problems a parent faces. Many parent-based therapies work on a parent’s relationship with their children, problem-solving within the family, and analysis of family dynamics. Therapy conducted remotely by video may be helpful in allowing a therapist to observe how families interact in their own homes.

When should a parent seek therapy?
When behavioral problems begin to disrupt the healthy functioning of a family, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If parents find that children are acting out in school, have started using drugs or alcohol, have developed eating disorders, or other similar red flags, a therapist may be able to help.

How long does therapy take for parenting problems?
Depending on the severity of a family’s challenges and the type of treatment utilized, therapy for parenting can last from weeks to months. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a pragmatic therapy type that can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. Structural family therapy, which inspects family dynamics, often takes several months. Parent-child interaction therapy is typically shorter-term, lasting between 10 and 20 sessions. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.

Can therapy help parents dealing with burnout or stress?
Parenting is difficult. Parents may dismiss or conceal feelings of exhaustion, overwhelm, or escape ideation—imagining withdrawing from their parental obligations altogether. but left unattended, these feelings can have negative effects on the whole family. A therapist can help parents work on the skills they might need to better cope with the burdens of parenting and help them be the best parents they can be.
