You are a high-achieving parent who has mastered success in your career and yet you find yourself struggling with the most important role of your life—being the parent you dreamed of becoming. You've built financial security and provided every material advantage for your children, yet you feel emotionally distant, reactive, or overwhelmed in your most precious relationships.
You recognize that your past experiences, stress responses, and unresolved trauma are creating patterns that interfere with your ability to be present, patient, and emotionally available. You're not looking for someone to tell you you're a good parent—you want to become the parent your children truly need.
You value efficiency, expertise, and results. Traditional weekly therapy feels too slow when your children are growing up fast and patterns are solidifying. You're willing to invest in premium, intensive treatment that delivers transformative results without the lengthy timeline of conventional approaches.
If you're parenting a child with complex medical needs, chronic illness, or disabilities, your journey carries unique emotional challenges that others may not fully understand. The constant vigilance, medical appointments, insurance battles, and fear for your child's future create layers of stress that traditional parenting advice simply doesn't address.
You carry an invisible weight—the chronic worry, the hypervigilance, the grief for the childhood you imagined your child would have. You may feel guilty for wanting emotional support when your child is the one who's sick. You might struggle with feeling isolated from other parents whose biggest concern is screen time, not life-threatening symptoms.
The intensity of medical parenting can trigger trauma responses, anxiety, and depression while simultaneously demanding that you remain your child's strongest advocate. You don't need someone to tell you to "just relax"—you need someone who understands the unique psychological toll of loving a medically fragile child.
Your healing matters not just for you, but for your entire family's resilience. When you process your own trauma and stress responses, you become better equipped to navigate the emotional complexity of medical parenting while maintaining the deep connection your child needs.
The same drive that made you successful in your career can fuel your transformation as a parent. You don't need to sacrifice your achievements to become emotionally available—you need to integrate your strengths with emotional intelligence and healing.
Your children are watching, learning, and forming their blueprint for relationships based on what they see at home. The investment you make in your emotional health today becomes their foundation for life.
If you're ready to stop managing your parenting and start transforming it, I'm here to guide that journey. Your children deserve the healed, present, emotionally intelligent parent you're capable of becoming.
Contact me today for a consultation. Because being a provider isn't enough—your family needs you to be emotionally present too.
You want to break generational cycles before they become your children's inheritance. Whether it's emotional reactivity, anxiety, depression, or trauma responses, you refuse to pass these patterns to the next generation.
You want to manage stress differently. The high-pressure demands of your career and/or medically complex life shouldn't spill over into bedtime stories, family dinners, or quality time with your children.
You want genuine connection. You're tired of being physically present but emotionally unavailable. You want to show up authentically for the moments that matter most.
You want sustainable change. Every day you wait is another day your children learn that emotional distance is normal. You need solutions that work now, not months from now.
I provide online EMDR therapy, trauma counseling for parents, and virtual therapy for families facing medical challenges across Nevada and Utah. Specialties include breaking generational trauma, EMDR for parents, trauma-informed parenting, and therapy for medically complex families.
