Therapy for Adults & Parent Coaching

As a parent myself, I can attest to how the role and relationships can be both challenging and joyful. It can feel confusing and maybe even scary when your child is experiencing bigger and volatile emotions. Maybe they are becoming more defiant or engaging in risky behaviors and you find yourself in frequent power struggles. You might feel alone and lost in knowing how to maintain your connection with your child while holding boundaries and expectations.

I also know, as a parent, that as we witness our children grow, we are confronted with familiar emotions from our own experiences; being parented, navigating peer relationships, and the typical hardships of adolescence. Staying steady, attuned, and present is what you may strive for and yet, you may find yourself flooded with emotion, uncertain, and feeling disconnected. Whether you are a parent or not, at different stages of life our strong emotions emerge, leading us to react in relationship with others (our family of origin, friends, partners, colleagues, etc.). Sometimes these emotions leave us feeling overwhelmed, confused, lonely, or stuck. I provide a supportive and empowering approach to help adults and parents to navigate the complexities of raising children, staying regulated, understanding and prioritizing their needs, and maintaining effective and meaningful relationships.
