When a young adult’s path to independence is compromised by their substance use disorder, the whole family feels the impact. Parents often carry overwhelming fear, grief, and exhaustion.

Peace and healing are possible, even in the chaos.

I help parents find calm amid turmoil—releasing the emotional grip of their child’s struggles and restoring balance, clarity, and a renewed sense of their own life, freedom, and joy.

Let’s Take a Walk

Private Coaching Journey

 

This is your space — unhurried, judgment-free, and built entirely around you.

In our 50-minute one-on-one sessions, we go beneath the surface of what’s happening with your child and get to the heart of what’s happening with you. Through a personalized emotional recovery plan and strategies you can reach for daily— not just in crisis moments, but in the everyday work of reclaiming your life—  we work together to rebuild the clarity, joy, peace, self-care, and emotional strengths this season has quietly eroded.

Session by session, we move you from surviving to grounded. From reactive to rooted. From fear to acceptance and peace.

This is not a quick fix. It’s a commitment to yourself — and it’s long overdue.

(Cost varies based on packages of 1-12 sessions. Sliding scale is available.) 

Recovery Group Journey

Join one of our Pathway to Peace learning & action circles that offer safe space for sharing experiences, learning, and practicing science-backed emotional recovery skills and strategies in a small and supportive community with other parents like you.

These are action-based, learning sessions where we empower each other to reclaim and rebuild our mental, emotional, social, physical, spiritual, relational, and financial well-being using Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) and Invitation to Change (ITC) models and principles.

(Free when combined with an individual/private coaching package, otherwise $10-$15/session; Sliding scale is available.)

Leadership Vibe Assessment Journey

Parents, as the leaders of your home, increasing your awareness of how your attitude, perceptions, and energy influence your relationships can transform the way you respond, connect, and heal. This deeper understanding creates the foundation for positive, loving, and lasting change in your emotional recovery journey.

The Energy Leadership Index (ELI) is an assessment that reveals how your energy and mindset show up in everyday life and relationships. With this awareness, you can begin making intentional shifts that create healthier, more connected relationship with your family, especially your young adult.

(The Assessment can stand alone or be combined with an individual coaching package.  Assessment + 60 minute debrief session= $150)

Mental Fitness Journey

Knowing what needs to change and actually changing it — those are two very different things.

This powerful 6-week experience is for parents who are ready to stop living in constant survival mode and start rebuilding a life that feels grounded, meaningful, and whole again.

Through intentional guidance, reflection, and practical tools, you’ll strengthen the mental and emotional muscles that chronic stress, worry, and exhaustion often wear down. Together, we focus on rebuilding resilience, practicing self-compassion, and developing life-giving habits that support long-term healing and growth, while positioning you to positively influence your young adult’s journey.

Because reclaiming your life isn’t a moment. It’s a practice. And mental fitness is one of the strongest foundations for lasting transformation.

(Assessment + 6 sessions = $500; Sliding scale is avaiailable.)

Consulting & Advocacy Journey

With more than 40 years of leadership experience in healthcare — and lived experience as a consumer of substance use disorder (SUD) care for my family member — I am deeply committed to advancing patient-centered, equitable systems of care.

I partner with organizations seeking to transform outdated and oppressive practices that perpetuate illness, widen disparities, and restrict access to high-quality care for marginalized and historically underserved communities.
