My Specialty:

Nobody hands you a manual when you become a parent. You get advice from every direction, a mental list of everything you're supposed to be doing, and a quiet worry that everyone else got the instructions and you didn't. Maybe you're losing your patience more than you'd like to and hating yourself for it afterward. Maybe discipline has turned into a daily power struggle, or you and your partner can't get on the same page about how to handle any of it. Maybe you look at your kids and love them completely and still feel stretched so thin there's nothing left over for you.

​

I work with parents in exactly that spot. Together we'll look at what's actually driving the hard moments, build steadier ways to communicate and set limits, and make room for you to feel like a person again and not just the one managing everyone else. My approach is trauma-informed and collaborative, which often means we look at the patterns you grew up with too, because a lot of how we parent comes from how we were parented, for better and for worse.

​

I also work with adults and couples navigating relationship strain, life transitions, and old wounds that resurface when life gets full. Wherever you're starting from, my style is warm and down-to-earth. Sessions should feel like a real conversation with someone who gets it, not a lecture and not a performance. You don't need to have it figured out before you reach out. That's what we'll do together.
