When the world feels heavy and parenting feels overwhelming, there is a truth I encourage my clients to come back to.

Swipe through for one of the most impactful mindset shifts I teach parents in therapy.

So much of how we respond, how we discipline, how we show affection, how we handle conflict, comes from the parenting we received ourselves.

But here’s the hope:
🛑 You can pause.
👀 You can notice.
↪️ You can choose a new pattern.

You are not stuck with a blurry lens. Healing and clarity are possible. And the work you do now doesn’t just impact your kids, it frees you, too.

On a day all about love, this is the reminder we need most. 💗

True love begins with God, flows through us, and reaches those around us. Whether you’re celebrating with family, friends, or simply pausing for a quiet moment alone, may your heart be rooted in the kind of love that never fails.

I want to shine a light on an organization doing real work for youth mental health in our community: The Goldfinch Foundation.

Inspired by the legacy of Owen Willers, this foundation is on a mission to make mental wellness approachable, reduce stigma, and empower young people with connection, creativity, and purpose. They offer community events, mental health education, and safe spaces where teens and families can learn, grow, and feel seen.

Their heart-led work reminds us that mental health isn’t something we fix in isolation; it’s something we build together. If this mission resonates with you, I encourage you to learn more, join a community event, or simply share their message with someone who needs it.

💛 Let’s keep talking about mental wellness, connection, and compassion, especially for the next generation.

While you’re helping your kids with their Valentine’s cards and maybe planning something for your spouse… don’t forget a heart that can sometimes get overlooked.

Take a minute, press play, and see what kind of connection might be waiting for you. 💗

Some of the hardest parenting seasons line up with major brain growth spurts, and they can catch even the most intentional parents off guard. What looks like attitude, defiance, or emotional whiplash is often a developing brain asking for support in the only way it knows how.

In this video, I walk through the ages that kids brains go through the biggest shifts and the tools that actually help parents stay balanced and connected when everything feels shaky.

If you’re in one of those seasons right now, this one is for you. And if you know a parent who keeps wondering if they’re doing something wrong, send this their way.

✨Big news! I’m officially a Certified Interpersonal Neurobiology Clinician (C-IPNB).
This certification is more than a credential; it’s a reflection of the deep work I do every day with parents and children in my therapy room.

Because behind every meltdown, every moment of disconnection, every “why did I react that way?” is a brain and a nervous system doing what they were wired to do.

Through this lens of Interpersonal Neurobiology, I help families:

💡 Understand what’s happening in their child’s brain and body during dysregulation

🧠 Teach kids (and parents) how to shift and regulate their nervous system

🗣️ Name the fears that often drive big behaviors

❤️ Explore attachment styles and how they shape parenting triggers

🤝 Build authentic connection, not just better behavior

This isn’t just theory, it’s transformation.

I feel so honored to walk alongside families toward more calm, more understanding, and more connection. If you’re ready to bring this kind of brain-based, heart-forward support into your parenting journey, I’d love to work together. Send me a message or visit my website for a free 15 minute consultation.

From the way our brains are wired for connection to the balancing power of gratitude and prayer, modern research continues to affirm what Scripture has always shown us about how to live, love, and flourish.

God designed us on purpose, with purpose. And when we align with His rhythms, transformation happens, from the inside out. Thank you, for the gift of The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery. Order now anywhere books are sold!

Feeling stretched thin by all the noise, needs, and nonstop moments of parenting? You’re not alone.

In my therapy practice and in my own parenting journey, I’ve seen how one small shift can create space for peace, clarity, and connection, without adding more to your to-do list.

If you're craving a little more calm and a lot less overwhelm, this video is for you.

Watch and share with a friend who could use a deep breath today.
