One of the most courageous things we can do on our healing journey is to continue to show up.
I collaborate with caregivers, mental health clinicians and professionals in child-centric fields to turn their valid experiences into empowered growth - through speaking, training, and clinical consultation rooted in over twenty years of pediatric social work and related services.

The heart behind the work
Since 1999, I’ve sat alongside children and their families during the most difficult moments of their lives, working with them to navigate through what many thought were impossible odds. I’ve kept showing up because they did and I truly believe their effort to thrive should be honored exuberantly. My work now includes taking what I have learned over the last 25+ years and putting it into the hands and hearts of the caregivers, mental health clinicians and other professionals who impact the lives of children every day.
