Amazing article on provide “self care” if you didn’t receive the parenting you needed as a child. Many millennials will relate, as they were raised by parents who were busy with work or busy with building their life.

For the un- and under-parented, there are five specific and key tasks that we are called upon to face on our own individual healing journeys as adults.

Inspired by a wonderful post on and for MANY conversations with perinatal clients over the years. Birth planning should not stop at birth! The postpartum period is FRAGILE and VULNERABLE and the more steps you’ve taken to set yourself up for success in advance, the better outcome you’ll have.

New blog post! I’m seeing RED FLAG 🚩 posts everywhere. What about green flags?

You asked, I listened.

The last two years have created stressors in more way than I could have imagined. Everyone is experiencing different pressures, overwhelm, grief, and loneliness.

Every therapist I know has seen record numbers of clients, from first-timers in therapy to past clients coming back to address new issues. It’s clear that the mental health of our communities is not great.

I am only one person, and I have limited time. That’s why I’ve created an amazing team of therapists who I TRUST, VALUE, and who I TRAIN to work alongside me as a team.

My goal is, and has always been, to connect every person who WANTS therapy to someone who is a good match for them. I spend time and energy directing new clients to the therapist who I think will work best with them, whether it’s me, someone from my team, or another provider in the community. I am HERE FOR YOU!

If you are feeling out of sorts, please don’t hesitate to reach out. You can DM me, you can book a consult through my website, you can call, or submit an inquiry through my website. Whatever is the easiest step for you, let’s connect and get you the support you DESERVE. Because we all need someone in our corner ❤️

Do you hold integrity as a top priority in your relationship? Do you know the importance of integrity to the foundation of your partner’s feelings toward you?

You learn so much about relationships from your early interactions. Your concept of what a relationship “is” gets shaped by your experience.

Have you ever reflected on these topics? How were boundaries managed in your family? How were you given (or not given) healthy self esteem?

These are all important questions to ask yourself in order to bring your patterns into awareness. We can’t shift anything we aren’t aware of.

*relationship dynamics*
We all have them, but we aren’t always aware of them. When I’m helping a couple get “unstuck” one of the first things I look for is their unhealthy relationship dynamic. What is happening over and over to cause them to polarize and lose touch with each other. This is the “diagnosis” in couples therapy.

Once I know what this is, I share it with the client to be sure I have it right. Once we know what this is, the work begins. Healing begins.

If you’re curious about how couples therapy might improve your relationship, follow the link in my bio to set up a phone consultation so we can discuss your needs. The pandemic has been really hard on relationships.

I’d love to share my recent feature in Shoutout LA where I got to discuss my path in creating my private practice.

We had the good fortune of connecting with Rebecca Newton and we've shared our conversation below. Hi Rebecca, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business? I started my own business for freedom. I had worked in the mental health field in various agencies and felt crampe

Grief is the reaction to any form of loss.

Losing a relationship
Losing a pregnancy
Losing a job
Losing a sense of safety
Losing your identity

All of these losses will come along with grief.

What we know about grief is that it looks different for everyone. There is no “normal” grieving process.

Many people will experience the ups and downs of several emotions, often called the stages of grief. Most people don’t go through these stages in a sequential order, or in a linear fashion. Your grief journey is your own.

I’ll be posting more about grief and the 5 common stages that come with grief. Use these posts and apply them where you need them in life. This year has led to a lot of grief for most people.

What are you currently grieving?
