I help children, teens, and adults find hope in the midst of life’s hardest seasons — even, and perhaps especially, when hope feels impossible.

Meet Maverick 🐾

Following in the pawprints of my longtime therapy dog, Josh, Maverick is a Miniature Schnauzer puppy who is joining me as a therapy dog in training.

Maverick is very much in training, but I’ll share updates as he grows and progresses.

He has big pawprints to fill and I’m excited about the journey.

A new study in Pediatrics found that twelve-year-olds who owned smartphones were more likely to experience depression and obesity and not get enough sleep than their peers without one. Consistent communication with children and teens about smartphones and screen time can help make sure that phones don’t crowd out important activities like exercise, sleep, and quality time with friends and family.

You can’t just flip a switch and expect burnout — or old habits — to fix themselves. Real change takes effort. You have to do the work, make the adjustments, and turn the light back on for yourself.

Change isn’t automatic. It’s intentional. It’s hard. And it’s worth it.

Attachment is a big deal!!! How we were parented and cared for along with our childhood experiences informs our attachment style. Then we grow up, and how we parent our children informs their attachment style. Then they grow up, and how they parent informs our grandchildren’s attachment style (and on and on and on…)

The good news is attachment can change! So making an intentional decision to walk towards your own “earned secure attachment” can have generational impacts.

While this can feel overwhelming it is important to remember that having an insecure style does not mean something is wrong with you. It simply shows the brilliant and beautiful way you adapted to your surroundings and circumstances. Identifying your own attachment patterns can show you the pathway towards earned secure attachment. Doing the processing and work for yourself and your children is a gift! It’s never too late to process your past and the way it impacts your current relationships!

Your future isn’t built in breakthrough moments — it’s shaped in the quiet, ordinary choices no one claps for. The ones where you show up. Say no. Stick to your values.

Growth looks like consistency, not just intensity. And that’s really good news — because it means you can start today… right now.
