Do you ever feel like you have so many ideas, creative energy, or just SOMETHING bigger to offer the world, but don't know where to start? Well, this is your sign to take the plunge and bet on yourself! You’re currently reading my response to my own inner voice telling me just that! So please allow me to inspire you to ask questions, be vulnerable and find your way of expressing yourself to the world. ​

Society often wires us to identify and excel in one specific role, to find a lane and not veer. However, it is human nature to become curious, passionate and even experts in a variety of areas. Through writing, I found I could intricately weave each piece of my life together and share the end result with you. 

I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Human Development and a Master's in Social Work. I am currently a play therapist and have had the privilege to work with children and adults in a variety of settings. I have always been interested in human experiences, emotions and what drives us. I think we can read and educate ourselves as much as possible but watching it in play and sharing our experiences is what adds the real-world component. I can give you tools for self and co-regulation, share research on developmental milestone and brain development or discuss trauma responses. BUT the real connection comes from hearing or sharing in someone else's experiences with these concepts. To do this, I share my own hard parenting moments, daily thoughts or moments of connection and THEN look at the why, talk about some tools and explore why these isolating moments may be a lot more universal than we think.
