Are you, or your kids, struggling to find ease, peace and joy in your relationships?

Perhaps you're caught in behavior and relationship patterns you really want to change?

Find relief from unproductive conflict and confusion. Cultivate more presence, connection and compassion with yourself and your people.

 I support folks who are struggling with chronic dysregulation, reactivity and relational rupture to find more ease and stability in their relationships (including the most important relationship... the relationship to self)!

If you, or you'r child, are struggling in these ways, welcome! You're looking for support, and that likely means you are stuck in protective patterns that are no longer working for you, we can shift this!

Relationships are messy. Honestly connecting with ourselves and our closest people is whole hearted, brave business. Parenting children with big, and overwhelming feelings and behaviors, is REALLY HARD and can touch off all of our unprocessed wounds and pain points. Remaining steady and regulated in relationship (with anyone, and especially our kids) is incredibly challenging, and particularly so, if we were not raised by regulated and attuned (enough) caregivers ourselves. Under these circumstances, feeling exhausted, under-resourced and maybe even hopeless  (or close) makes so much sense!! A deeper understanding of our self, and the science of our behavior, can bring us closer to smoother, safer and more satisfying relationships, with your self, your loved ones and your children. 
With reverence, curiosity, a little good humor, we will explore your most engrained habitual stress responses, whats activating these stress responses, and identify and practice soothing skills to support you in tending to yourself in these challenging moments so that you can remain grounded and stay regulated longer. We will develop individualized strategies integrate into your daily life, your parenting and family systems for more felt peace, ease and connection. This is the work I do with children/youth as well, often integrating sand tray, play and arts based interventions and bibliotherapy.

Whether you want to address your experience in relationship with yourself, your children or your partner, I look forward to working with you, toward your vision of more security, connection, steadiness in your relationships!
