My approach
My extensive experience working with children, teens, and families has given me insight into the difficulties that parents of children of all ages can face. The specialized training I’ve obtained in child development and attachment therapy has given me the tools to help parents repair attachment wounds, increase security in their children, and improve the parent-child bond. I believe in the importance of a strong parent-child relationship and I am passionate about helping parents feel more fulfilled in their parenting role.
