Raising the level of human consciousness through authentic parent-child relationships

g u i d a n c e

I support parents and those providing care for the developing child.
I do not fix children.

Creating an authentic presence of joy between
you and your child is a gift for the heart.

Your child is your teacher.

Guiding you to understand what your child is teaching you invites you
to become consciously invested in your purpose as parent.

Learning how to be in relationship with your child
is a blessing of the heart.

wherever you are, is where we begin

making sense of your own attachment history and its impact on the present

couple-hood connection

preconception parenting/adoption preparation

prenatal through post-natal parenting

early parenting through the primary stages

maintaining connection from early childhood through adolescence and beyond

repairing relationship ruptures

creating interpersonal relationships built on awareness of self and other

*specializing in supporting families with children who have
experienced disruptions in their early development and attachment relationships*

Children who have experienced chronic and complex trauma (specifically in relationship to caregivers) often demonstrate intense emotional reactivity and severe behavioral challenges at home, at school, with one parent, in social situations, during times of transition, on birthdays and holidays, etc. These are not occasional meltdowns, yet an overall way of moving through the world that can feel overwhelming for both parent and child. It is critical that parents supporting these children become educated on how to create emotional safety for a child who is afraid of, yet desperately seeking intimacy, safety, and connection.
