Is School a Daily Struggle for Your Child - and for You?

Therapy for overwhelmed parents and kids facing school challenges, IEPs, 504s, and learning differences.

If you’re tired of tears over homework, calls from school, and feeling like you’re failing your child — you’re not alone.
I help families navigate the stress of learning struggles, behavior issues, and special education systems — with heart, clarity, and hope.

💛 Let’s make school (and home) feel better again.

Here’s how I help.

You don’t need a degree in education law to advocate for your child — you just need the right support.

In our work together, I’ll help you:

  • Understand what’s really going on with your child — not just the behavior, but what’s beneath it.

  • Navigate confusing school systems like IEPs, 504s, and MTSS — so you can ask the right questions and feel confident in meetings.

  • Build practical strategies for fewer meltdowns, more connection, and a calmer home life.

  • Stop feeling like the “bad guy” and start feeling like a connected, empowered parent again.

I bring warmth, clarity, and a whole lot of heart — because you deserve support that’s both effective and compassionate.

It’s not just school that’s hard right now. It’s everything.

The stress doesn’t stop when the school bell rings.

At home, you’re walking on eggshells, trying to keep the peace.
Homework turns into heartbreak.
Your child shuts down — or lashes out.
You’re stuck in a loop of worry, guilt, and second-guessing everything.

But you’re not alone — and you don’t have to stay stuck.

In therapy, we’ll work together to:

  • Understand what’s really going on with your child’s behavior, emotions, and school experience

  • Give you tools to connect instead of correct

  • Build your confidence in navigating IEP meetings, school emails, and hard conversations

  • Shift from constant stress to more calm, connection, and clarity

You don’t have to figure this out by yourself anymore.

If your child is the one coming to therapy…

Maybe they feel like the odd one out.
Like no matter how hard they try, they just don’t measure up — in school, in friendships, in life.

In therapy, I create a space where your child can:

  • Feel seen and supported — not shamed or “fixed”

  • Explore how their brain works in a way that finally makes sense to them

  • Learn emotional tools to manage overwhelm, frustration, and self-doubt

  • Practice new ways to cope, connect, and show up as their full self

Whether they’re angry, anxious, or totally checked out — we’ll work at their pace, building trust and giving them the tools they need to feel confident again.

Because when kids feel understood, they start to believe in themselves again.
