Stop the spiral. Quiet the chaos. Find your footing again.

For the adult who can’t stop the ‘what-ifs’ and the one who feels too scattered to get it together.

For the parent who feels like they’re disappearing into the demands of everyone else.

Therapy and Support for Parents

Virtual + In-Person Support

Parenting a neurodivergent or strong-willed child can be exhausting, isolating, and a constant cycle of walking on eggshells. To support, I offer:

  • Individual therapy for parents to process identity shifts, burnout, and emotional overwhelm.

  • Parenting support starts with a structured 8-week approach during which we build individualized and tangible tools tailored to your family’s needs so you can begin parenting with more effectiveness and confidence.

My Philosophy

 

Whether you are an adult or parent, we all have an intricate internal emotional world that has been shaped by our experiences as we have grown into who we are today.

Taking time to deeply explore this internal emotional world is the most important first step in making significant shifts in your life, and I am ready to support you in doing this.

 

You are worthy of a life that feels fulfilling and to have a guide who can walk with you on the journey to get there. 

 

I am committed to creating an environment of care and compassion, to works towards the understanding and acceptance of you as a whole person and pay attention to your individual needs. I vow to do my best to undo systemic harm, and I welcome people from all walks of life, cultural background, age, neurodivergence, gender identity, sexuality, ability and religion.
