Does your child get caught in worries they can’t switch off, even when they know their fears don’t make sense? Do they avoid situations, ask for constant reassurance, or shut down when plans change? Are you feeling overwhelmed, trying to support them while managing your own anxiety, guilt, and exhaustion? You want to be a steady, confident parent, but anxiety keeps showing up anyway. You’re not alone and you don’t have to solve this alone.
I support parents and their kids who are navigating anxiety and OCD. Whether it’s your own anxious thoughts or your child’s intense emotions that feel in control, we’ll explore what’s happening underneath it all. Together, we’ll untangle anxiety cycles and patterns that keep you
I help kids face fears, tolerate uncertainty, and build confidence using CBT, ERP, and SPACE practices. For parents, I create space to work through self-doubt, overwhelm, and guilt so you can parent with confidence and steadiness. I offer in-person therapy and virtual sessions. Reach out for a free consultation. I'd love to connect.
