Turning difficult moments into better memories for kids, teens, and parents.
About me
I am a dual Certified Child Life Specialist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who provides custom support and guidance to parents, families, and communities experiencing medical illness and grief related stress.
I am also the author and creator of The Method Workbooks series which includes The Dot Method - an interactive tool to teach kids about cancer.

Simple strategies and tools.
Transferable to everyday life.
I believe that illness and grief are not problems to fix, rather circumstances to support. I care for mental health in the context of illness and grief by incorporating evidenced based strategies, play-based interventions, and a strength-based, mindfulness approach to personalize interventions that reduce fear, distress, and anxiety. I work with entire families to develop more effective coping and communication skills, to nurture their relationships, and to build a stronger sense of self. I am specifically trained to coach caregivers on language and techniques to use when parenting their child through medical illnesses, family life transitions, and traumatic loss.
