Welcome! To My Website
I work with parents to help them to build and maintain healthy, loving, and meaningful relationships with themselves, their children, and their partners.
When we learn to effectively parent, rather than emotionally parent, we are then able to create and maintain a healthy parent-child relationship.

Are you and/or your child diagnosed with depression and this is impacting your parent-child relationship?

When you’re stressed… Do you engage in “fight” such as yelling, arguing, punishing your child? Do you find yourself going into “flight” by avoiding and ignoring an issue with your child? Do you “freeze” and end up giving in to their demands?

Has your family endured an unexpected tragedy, a death in the family, a divorce?
A traumatic incident or incidents can lead to ‘scary’ and ‘challenging’ behaviors. Often our children’s challenging behaviors are a result of unprocessed and unhealed Trauma. Often, we cannot parent the way we want to because of our own childhood trauma and emotional triggers.
