Your mental health moment

10/19/2026

I helped over 200 kids learn how to manage their trauma response.

I promised myself that every opportunity I get I would help kids heal from trauma.

Many of my friends think I’m passionate about my private practice-but they’re wrong.

This is what I’m really passionate about:

-Helping kids heal from trauma
-Spending quality time with my sons
-Making sure I have daily self-care
-Taking good care of my family

The children are our future.

I enjoy every minute that I see them healing.

I know what I do is making a difference in their lives.

This is my definition of success.

Write down your own definition of success.

Then go for it with all of your power, passion and might.

The joy you receive will be well worth it.

5 Things I Thought Mattered in a Relationship… Until My Heart Got Broken

I used to care about whether he texted me back quickly.

I cared about looking like the “perfect couple” to everyone else.

I cared about keeping the relationship together—even when I was falling apart.

I cared more about being chosen by him than choosing myself.

Then heartbreak changed what mattered to me.

Now I care about peace, emotional safety, honesty, consistency, and knowing my worth.

Healing taught me that losing a relationship doesn’t have to mean losing myself.

Sometimes heartbreak doesn’t just end a relationship—it introduces you to the woman you were always meant to become.
