Meet Abby

As a dedicated, loving parent, you have tried all the moves; timeouts, consequences, rewards and punishments. At this point, you have grounded them until they are 35! Nothing works. The tantrums and acting out are getting worse and your kids are getting too big to hold down anymore. You and your family have taken some hits and family life is a nightmare. If you have a gifted or twice-exceptional child in your home, the intensity in your house is over the top and feel defeated. You need new tools and you need them yesterday!

I have a toolbox of tangible moves that work to calm the chaos in your home. With a background in child welfare, however, I bring so much more than new tools to your doorstep. I dive deep underneath your child’s behaviors to get at the root cause of the challenging episodes. I then gently guide parents to look at their own triggers which tend to fuel the fire in family conflicts. It can be scary for parents to look at themselves, but this is the first step in becoming the healers in the family. When we are done working together, you will be that trusted, go-to parent you long to be.

Meet Abby:

Female therapist with whit hair and glasses, smiling during Parent Coaching TherapyI am the mother of three gifted and talented daughters, now in their twenties. I struggled with overly strict parenting, especially with my middle, twice exceptional daughter. I followed the best parenting practices of the time, to no avail. It was not until she was twenty-two that I shifted my parenting lens from one of control to one of connection. I learned to see that she was doing the best that she could all along and that she was so much more than just her behavior. Today, we have a loving, trusting relationship. I am so glad to be included in her life to share her journey.

Let me help you shift your lens and make that connection you have always dreamed of having with your child. I have pivoted my unique family therapy practice, online, incorporating movement-based, brain balancing techniques.

Call (626) 755-4059 for a free, 20-minute phone consultation.

Parents, let me help you heal your family. It is never too late to bond with your child!

“We have had four to five therapists and this is the first time that I feel like there is some hope. We have workable, tangible things to do that can make a change.”


“The work is scary. I need to look at myself beyond my kids and family. The tiger is not in the room. We are totally getting our money’s worth.”
