Our Services
Trauma Town
In partnership with Beloved Bags, I've created a series of educational videos that share resources and tools for families seeking counseling support. Through these stories, I hope to offer insight, comfort, and practical support to families who are navigating the challenges of childhood trauma. My goal is to foster resilience, healing, and connection through shared experiences.
Why Work With Me?
Extensive Experience
Parents as Partners Coaching provides trauma-informed parenting support to help families navigate the unique challenges of raising children affected by trauma through our compassionate guidance and proven strategies.
Holistic Approach
I use a combination of therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Theraplay, and Family Therapy, to address both the immediate needs and long-term goals of your family.
Collaborative and Compassionate
I believe in building supportive, strength-based relationships with the families I work with. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan that honors your family’s unique dynamics and fosters healing and connection.
