Resilience isn't something we're born with. It's something we build together.

As a psychologist, parent, and co-author of "From Surviving to Vibing," I've spent over 20 years in the trenches with families navigating ADHD, anxiety, and everyday chaos.

I share the research, tell the stories (including my own experiences), and skip the judgment. Evidence-based strategies are only valuable if they actually work for YOUR family. My job is to bridge that gap between research and real life, helping you discover what works when you're in the thick of it.

Whether speaking to PTOs, wellness conferences, or corporate teams, I deliver strategies participants can use immediately.

Speaking Topic Examples

Front-End Strategies to Avoid Power Struggles and Meltdowns

What if you could prevent most meltdowns before they even start? Discover how to work with your child's "racecar brain and emotions" rather than against it. Learn practical, science-backed strategies that help you get ahead of the chaos instead of constantly reacting to it. Most children are not being intentionally defiant; rather, they struggle with emotional regulation and shifting focus. Understanding this can help parents and caregivers foster connection and build skills rather than engage in power struggles.

Finding Calm in the Chaos: Building Resilience as a Parent

Parenting today can feel overwhelming, especially when you're trying to navigate your child's big emotions while managing your own stress and uncertainty. This workshop embraces imperfection and focuses on building sustainable practices that work for real families in real life. You'll learn practical strategies for staying calm during challenging moments and discover how your own self-care directly affects your family's wellbeing.

The Be An EMPATH Method for Emotional Resilience

Emotions are confusing for everyone—kids, teens, and the adults trying to help them. This workshop teaches the Be An EMPATH method to help you show up authentically in emotionally charged moments, whether you're supporting a child or simply wanting to feel more grounded yourself. You'll learn practical strategies that work in real situations and discover how to communicate more effectively during high-stress moments.‍
