You’re doing your best, but your child’s big emotions or behaviors feel overwhelming. Maybe transitions are hard, school drop-offs are tough, or nothing you try seems to help. You’re not looking for judgment—you want real strategies that work for your child. You want to feel more confident, less reactive, and more connected. Most of all, you want a calmer home where you enjoy parenting again. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay this hard.

People are all impacted by struggles in life and have the capacity to take these in and strive for more. I started my career from the end of life with 10 years in hospice work, which may seem a bit backwards to some. However, a decade of working with the dying taught me how to work more effectively with the living. I am a veteran of the field with 12 years of experience working with folks from all walks of life, mainly those with trauma, depression, and anxiety impacting their quality of life and performance. Together we will assess your strengths and identify patterns of behavior you desire to change.
