After more than a decade of working with parents and raising four kids of my own. I’ve learned that most of our struggles don’t come from not trying hard enough. They come from carrying too much, alone, for too long.

I know the cycle: committing to show up better, losing it anyway, feeling awful, and promising yourself you’ll do better next time. I’ve seen the yelling, the power struggles, the overwhelm and I’ve lived plenty of it myself.

What I also know is that these patterns don’t stop at parenting. They show up in our relationships, our work, and the quiet moments where you think, Why does this still feel so hard when I’m this self-aware?

I work with parents, individuals in transition, and values-driven teams who want real change, not surface tools, sugarcoating, or forced vulnerability. My work is about getting to the root of patterns, strengthening relationships, and helping people show up with more clarity, steadiness, and self-leadership. My modalities that I use in my coaching are vast but not limited to Actualization Coaching, Internal Family Systems and The Enneagram.

Organizations bring me in to support human-centered growth: better communication, deeper trust, and collaboration that actually works—because people do better when they feel understood.

At the core of everything I do is this belief: you don’t need to become someone else. You need support becoming more yourself—grounded, capable, and sustainable.

And no, you’re not messing everything up.

Who am I? Why am I so good at parent work?

Whelp, first of all I have 4 kids of my own and have lived the dream (and nightmare!) of parenting through every childhood stage, from infancy through adolescence.

I'm also a Love&Logic (tm) independent facilitator and a life coach, which means I'm not just winging it. But most importantly, I have a unique holistic approach to parent work that includes emotional support, home management skills AND effective discipline that empowers children while improving behavior.

There are plenty of coaches out there - I am the one for you if you want someone who knows about discipline PLUS the emotion and chaos that make that discipline hard, someone who will give it to you straight, and love you fiercely.
