How I Work With Parents and Children
Caring and Connected Child Therapy is built on an understanding of how the brain and body work together. Grounded in polyvagal and attachment theories, this approach recognizes that change takes place over time with consistency, and repetition.
I believe in working as a team with you and your family to support you and your child’s progress. Change can’t happen with one 50-minute session each week. That’s why I provide simple, tailored activities, experiments, and observations for you to do at home. In this way, therapy extends beyond our sessions and has more enduring effects.

I have been on a lifelong learning journey to help children feel safe and loved.
I hope to help caregivers on their parenting journey through my therapy practice, blog and the Caring and Connected Parenting Guide, endorsed by pediatric and mental health leaders as well as Nobel Prize winners. My writing is informed by neuroscience and attachment theory. I hope you will join me on this journey and make the most of your caring and connected family years.
