You're parenting while healing from your own childhood wounds. You yell, shut down, or respond in ways that don't feel aligned with the parent you want to be. The mental load of household management and child-rearing isn't fairly distributed in your home and something needs to change. You're struggling with constant family conflict around screens, limits, and routines. You're helping a child heal from trauma while managing your own fear, anger, or grief. You're embarrassed or anxious about your child's behavior in public- you dread public meltdowns and calls home from school. Your kid's already in services and they're not working.
I help parents identify patterns rooted in their own upbringing and develop tools that actually work in real-life parenting moments.
I help children and teens manage anxiety and trauma through both individual and family interventions. I often use play-based approaches and I love working with kids who may be reluctant or uncertain about therapy.
You don't have to keep parenting in survival mode. I help both parents and their children feel safer, more understood, and better equipped to weather storms together. My goal is to help you feel patient, peaceful, and delighted in your family even in chaotic moments and challenging seasons. Ready for more calm at home? Let’s connect for an introductory call.
