• I Provide Successful Therapeutic Services to those Parenting a Child with Challenging Behaviors.

    Are you parenting a child with challenging behaviors? Have you tried hard to find the answers and come up empty handed? Has your journey been filled with heartbreak, stress, and chaos? Do you feel frustrated and isolated from others because they just do not understand what you are going through? Are you at the end of your rope and have you tried traditional therapies that have not worked? Have you been told your child is defiant, antisocial, bipolar, borderline or other labels that have not helped to heal your child?

    You might have a child with a diagnosis of ADHD, OCD, DMDD, or other diagnosis that are making it very hard for your child to respond to your good parenting strategies.  Kid’s do well when they can. Unfortunately, their diagnosis can get in the way of their ability to cooperate with others, sit still, focus on the task at hand, speak clearly in a reasonable tone of voice, and follow our lead as parents. I can provide parents with insight and strategies to bring peace, mutual enjoyment, and harmony back into your home. I can help you deepen your relationship with your child that will benefit your family.

    If your adopted child has had any trauma or neglect within the first 5 years of life, then the behaviors you are struggling with could be the result of an attachment challenge. Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) might be the root issue. I know the sense of frustration and isolation you are experiencing because I not only successfully treat attachment difficulties, but I am raising an attachment challenged child and have fostered other children with R.A.D. I have a road map that will help you connect with your child’s heart. This is the place where lasting change happens. I will show you how to regain the peaceful nurturing family life you are hoping for. You are in the right place to start your journey toward healing, not just for your child, but also for yourself and your family.

    Reach out today to set up a free 15-minute consultation to see if we can work together to bring the harmony back into your family life.
