"I get to see people change in fundamental ways every day, and that is why I find this profession both intellectually stimulating and emotionally fulfilling. As a mother of three, I understand what it’s like to watch your child struggle. My mission is to empower parents and give them the tools to respond to their kids with patience, humor, and empathy. I’m lucky to have found an amazing group of professionals that share my values and dedication."
