I’ve dedicated my life to helping parents navigate the complexities of relationships with their adult children. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and an Executive and Family Coach, I’ve spent over 20 years equipping families with the tools to build trust, foster connection, and create meaningful change.
My journey as a parent and professional has taught me that authentic relationships begin with intention. Relationships thrive when we approach them with love, respect, and a willingness to grow. I believe that every parent, no matter the past, has the ability to create a lasting, impactful bond with their children.
