A little bit about me...
I’m a parent and therapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, working across schools, community settings, and independently. I am passionate about collaborating with individuals to develop effective strategies and coping skills tailored to their needs. My interests include the interplay of the mind, brain, and relationships, particularly in how attachment, attention, and executive function skills impact our relationships and parenting approaches, as well as anxiety management. I look forward to supporting you on this parenting journey.
As a Coach…
I am here to support you in all that your parenting journey throws at you. We will examine the way you parent through wonder and curiosity rather than shame and worry. There are many parenting resources with conflicting theories and approaches out there today. A parent coach will help you navigate what feels best for your family, support you in each stage of parenting and help prepare you for those unexpected moments.
As a Clinician…
I believe that a strength-based multidisciplinary approach coupled with compassion and humor go a long way. Connection, empathy and understanding are the foundations of my practice. I believe that growing, stretching and rethinking ways to approach all aspects of life through curiosity, openness and self compassion, help guide us through our hardest moments.
Individual Therapy (home page)
Life transitions can be daunting, whether you’re just leaving home, entering the next phase of life, becoming a first time parent, transitioning careers or just trying to keep your head above water. Stress, anxiety, worry and self doubt often show up when we least expect them to. In my practice I focus primarily on anxiety, how it shows up in our bodies, behaviors, thoughts and feelings. Together we can work to develop impactful change by implementing goal based strategies, effective coping skills and re-establishing a balanced sense of self.
