Parents and Families
Welcome

Nice to Meet you!

Relationships are at the heart of everything I do. I’m passionate about helping people feel supported, encouraged, and equipped with tools that help them truly thrive. Whether I’m guiding children as they learn healthy coping skills, offering practical tips to help parents find more joy (and less stress) in parenting, or walking alongside grandparents as they pour love into their families – it’s a privilege to be part of the journey.

For over 20 years, I’ve served as a school-based mental health counselor, and for the past 15 years, I’ve had the joy of teaching Love and Logic® parenting classes. This work isn’t just what I do, it’s where my heart is. I’m deeply committed to helping families build stronger, healthier, and more connected relationships.

Every day, I’m reminded what a gift it is to invest in kids, parents, and caregivers. Watching that positive ripple effect unfold – in families, classrooms, and communities – is incredibly rewarding.

Family & Faith

My husband and I blended our families when our boys were just 3 and 4 years old. Today, they’re grown into incredible young men. One is now married, and we’re blessed with a daughter-in-law we adore and two amazing granddaughters who have completely captured our hearts.

I love our growing family. Time together and our shared commitment to faith have always been the foundation of our lives. When our boys grew up and moved out, the house got quiet, but we found ourselves entering a new and joyful season: empty nesting and grandparenting.

We recently made a big move, from California to Texas, so we could be closer to our grandkids. We haven’t looked back! Their smiles, giggles, and boundless energy have brought a whole new level of fun into our lives. We are absolutely crazy about them, and being nearby for everyday moments is a gift we treasure.
