Strengthening Connection
One Family At A Time.

I’ve been a family therapist specializing in adolescent mental health for over 20 years. I’m also the parent of a teen and tween. I help families manage the complexities of their lives with a unique approach that is both honest and supportive.

Out Now!

Grounded in cutting-edge polyvagal theory, Staying Connected with Your Teen shines a light on why teens are so easily triggered, and offers nerve-calming strategies to minimize reactivity, nurture a stronger connection, and help you lovingly guide your teen on the path to adulthood.

“Every parent raising a teenager needs to read this book; it’s a comprehensive guide on how to understand your teen’s behaviors and brain development, how to help them regulate their nervous system (and your own!), how to connect with them to deepen your relationship, and how to parent through the difficult moments. This book has it all, and I can’t wait to recommend this to all the parents I know.”
—Leah Katz, PhD, clinical psychologist, and author of Gutsy
