Helping Families Navigate Challenges
Big emotions and mental health struggles don’t need to leave your family feeling stuck.
What I Help With
Making Sense of a New Diagnosis
A new diagnosis for your teen or young adult can feel overwhelming, especially with other stresses in the mix. I help you unpack it, find ways to support your child, and give you strategies to handle challenges more effectively.
Navigating Systems to Heal & Thrive
Families often feel overwhelmed by the school and mental health systems. Even with support, kids may struggle to move forward. I work with parents to find clarity, strengthen advocacy, and connect with helpful resources.
Transition to Young Adulthood
When young adults with special needs or mental health challenges leave school, they may struggle. I help parents through this tricky transition—reducing conflict and creating a plan that focuses on what you can control
