Concierge Marriage & Family Coaching
This is a way to explore your family’s unique constellation of strengths and needs.
If there is one thing I am sure of, it is that I have an endless capacity to love.
The richness of healthy, human-connection is something we all should have ample access to. The trauma from inappropriate human-connection is something we all should have adequate shelter from. And in the absence of that, we all need a safe space to process and heal.
As a female who was diagnosed with ADHD in the 80s, I have a pretty extreme textbook case. My three daughters each received various neurodiverse labels one by one, and as this happened I felt called to start what I call, a radical experiment of parenting the kids I have, instead of the ones I thought I’d have. I’m still in the process of finding a way to be my full-self, while parenting all of their individual full-selves. The goal is for our family to include all of the unique ways our brains work instead of training or managing or getting rid of them.
What I have developed, and continue to refine, is a BOLD possibility for individuals, couples, and families.
My work with families is centered around helping my clients relate to one another in a way that fosters the core need for healthy, human-connection. I blend my bachelors in education with what I am learning while I earn my masters in marriage and family therapy. I’m able to add the knowledge gained through my certifications in personal training / physical fitness to leverage movement and games with kids. This allows the body to be used as a portal to emotional conversations.
I offer coaching in various formats. My work is a combination of working out and traditional talk therapy. Therapeutic styles that I use in my work are CBT, DBT, the Gottman Method and others.
I aim to help couples feel seen and heard by one another, make space for parents to gain the psycho-education needed to best raise the child(ren) they have, instead of the child(ren) they expected, and give everyone a safe space to explore a BOLD possibility.
