PLEASE NOTE: I am currently pursuing a Masters Degree to become a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) so I may better support and come alongside families. To completely focus on my studies, I am not taking on new clients at this time. Thank you for your understanding and support!

As your Health & Parent Coach, I will support you to transform your home into a place of felt safety where you and your children can relax and enjoy each other.  As I guide you to implement a unique wholistic lifestyle approach to overcoming the toxic stress associates with ACEs, we will add simple, step-by-step changes into your lifestyle that add up to big transformation long term. By drawing on my training in connected parenting, trauma, wholistic nutrition, natural wellness, coaching techniques, and preventative health, I empower adoptive, foster, and kinship care families to implement wholistic lifestyle changes that support healing from adverse childhood experiences.

I will focus first on the nurturing, healing relationships that are essential to help children learn to become resilient.  Using connected parenting principles, we will work together to create family habits that help your children develop healthy relationships, learn to trust, use their voice appropriately to get their needs met, learn to self-regulate, and understand their own worth and value.

Next, I will empower your family members to implement natural living protocols that include wholesome nutrition, positive body movement, restorative sleep, grounding mindfulness practices, and elimination of household toxins.  Science shows that adopting wholistic lifestyle practices supports our bodies and gives them the best chance for true healing from ACEs.

Also of paramount importance, I will work with you to discover the desperately-needed self care practices that are life-giving to you, personally, as well as support overall wellness.  And then, we will work together to make them a priority in your life.

Some common areas where I help families include:

• Implementing the empowering, connecting, and correcting principles that are scientifically proven to help children heal from trauma
• Shifting families’ ideals to embrace a proactive, empowering approach instead of the more common reactive style
• Brainstorming creative ways to tackle behaviors that focus on connection, instead of punitive consequences
• Exploring the wholistic lifestyle practices that help support the healing process, such as stress management techniques, self care practices, consistent sleep routines, physical activity habits, positive social relationships, and beneficial spiritual practices that keep you balanced, present, and grateful
• Creating a real foods pantry and menu to support your bodies’ healing processes, while also making everyone content and satisfied
• Empowering parents to encourage picky eaters to embrace real food that nourishes their bodies
• Learning to read food labels to discover hidden ingredients that may be negatively affecting your family’s healing process, as well as finding natural alternatives
• Building a wholistic and natural remedies toolbox to support the whole family
• Replacing home, cleaning, and personal care products with natural solutions to decrease your family’s chemical burden and create a cleaner environment at home
• Empowering the whole family to take control of their health as they adopt natural wellness practices that foster overall healing, especially from adverse childhood experiences

The goal of my coaching process is to support healing from adverse childhood experiences with wholistic wellness practices. It requires your family to make a long term commitment with lifestyle changes.

With this in mind, there are three reasons you should not work with me:

1. You are looking for an easy, quick fix for behaviors or health issues.
2. You are looking for a fast checklist that will solve all your concerns immediately.
3. You are not 100% committed to making change, once and for all.

Healing from adverse childhood experiences is a marathon, not a sprint.  It’s not an easy path.  But please believe me when I say that you are what your children need.  Let’s work together to support your family’s healing process.  You must be committed to supporting your children (and yourself) to heal, so your family can truly thrive, instead of just simply survive.
