I'm a writer, mental health advocate, and a single mother of twin boys, one of whom has a rare condition. I was driven to create this space when I found as a mother that it was so difficult navigating the medical world. I learned some invaluable lessons about how to help my child overcome needle phobia--and I wanted to share these tricks with other parents. Along the way I discovered that some of my passions: writing, yoga and mindfulness are powerful weapons that can change your brain and your ability to cope with our everyday challenges. I'm honored to share these tools with you. I'm also excited to be expanding to serve parents of teens in crisis (mental health, residential treatment, wilderness programs) I earned my MFA at USF, my MSW at Hunter College and my BA At Princeton University. I have been a student of yoga and mindfulness and Zen in the SF Bay Area for many years--and continue to learn every day from my amazing students and teachers!
