Parentologist | Individual, Couples, and Family Therapist | Public Speaker | Expert Witness
I’m a parentologist, which means my career is all about the experience of being a parent. In coaching, we’ll discuss practical parenting skills and also explore what it’s like to be in the midst of raising kids, because nothing pushes us to reflect on how we were raised quite like parenting. Whether it’s toddlers, school-age kids, teens, or blended families, I bring humor, heart, and hard-won experience to help you feel confident, connected, and able to create the close family you want.
I work with individuals, couples, and families (with teens and adult kids) to help life and relationships feel more alive. We’ll notice what’s getting in the way, build on what’s already good, and have the kinds of conversations that really bring you closer to the people you love. For individuals, therapy is a chance to feel more grounded, more yourself, and more at ease in your life.
Expert witness testimony and consultation for legal professionals on mental health, family, divorce, and refuse/resist dynamics. I’ve been certified in eight judicial districts as an expert witness on parenting.
I call myself a “Parentologist” because my entire career has been dedicated to work with parents.
I’m a licensed therapist, parenting educator, coach, speaker, and writer in Denver and Fort Collins, Colorado. As a mom of three and a stepmom of three more, I understand the complexities of family life. I see parenthood as a developmental stage in the parent’s life and I work to bring out a parent’s best self with heart and skills to raise children in an emotionally healthy environment.
Let’s embark on a journey to deeper, more fulfilling relationships with those you love that will reignite your spark and help you embrace a more vibrant, fully alive version of yourself.
I collaborate with my son Palmer, a youth resilience coach and marriage and family therapist, combining my therapy background with his unique perspective as someone who grew up through divorce. We’re passionate about helping families navigate divorce while safeguarding kids’ mental health. Our work together includes:
How to Get Started
I care deeply about quality of service. Let’s have a good, old-fashioned chat and see if I’m the right fit for what you need. I offer a complimentary 25-minute Zoom discovery call. If you choose to move forward, you can schedule your first online or in-person therapy session. So easy. 😊
The best way to find out if we’re a fit to work together is to have a good old-fashioned conversation. I offer 25-minute complimentary, no-pressure chats so we can meet each other. On our call, I’ll ask you questions about your goals and be honest about whether I can help. If we both think it’s a good fit, you can schedule your first online or in-person therapy session. So easy.
I look forward to talking with you!
