Do you want to give your children the best of yourself - not what's left of yourself - each day? Is your tank on empty after battling tantrums, power struggles and trying to manage negative behaviors? Parenting our children is one of the toughest jobs in the world. A Licensed Marital and Family Therapist, I am trained to help you connect with your children in ways you never thought possible. I can help you understand your children's needs and developmental stages; learn effective strategies to tackle tough behaviors; and set healthy limits and boundaries, all while fostering connection. Let me help you to parent with intention!
I support my clients with parenting, self esteem and stress management. I work with parents to increase their confidence, keep their cool and practice self care. We'll work on creating stability, structure and routine in your home environment, all of which can lead to lasting, positive changes in your children.
In addition to working with parenting challenges and emotional health, I work regularly with couples and focus on increasing communication, connection, and intimacy, while interrupting patterns that aren't working. I tackle issues from alignment of parenting styles to infidelity and trust. Contact me now for a free 15-minute consultation!
