"I never felt judged, blamed, or dismissed when seeking his support—instead, I was met with compassion and empathy."

Compassion Over Control
We meet teens where they are, not where we think they should be.

Why I Do This Work
I was that struggling teen. My family walked through the darkness of disconnection, conflict, and fear about the future. I know what it feels like when the relationship feels broken and everyone is just trying to survive each day.
What I learned, both as that teen and now as a therapist, is that healing happens when parents are willing to understand instead of control. When you focus on building your own foundation first, everything else becomes possible.
Today, I help families find their way back to each other. Through my group practice, parenting programs, and speaking work, I'm here to make sure no family has to walk through this alone.
The work starts with you. The healing happens together.
