​I am passionate about helping YOU parent your kids that are hard to raise (and who challenge you and your parenting skills). I have a big heart for kids, especially those who are often overlooked or misunderstood. I know this first-hand, as I was once a hurt child, separated from my siblings and later adopted. I believe that a child's family is key in restoring hope and safety and resolving past hurts and disappointments. I have spent years studying best practices for children and trauma, learning about the incredible healing power of the brain, and working in the trenches with families in crisis. From this great wealth of information I have developed the Healthy Foundations Family Program (HFFP)--an on-line training program and intensive in-home program for parents with very challenging kids. As a parent, YOU are the best healing agent for your child. Let me (or a person or agency team I train) show you how to restore safety, hope, and confidence back into your home.
