About

Relationships are where healing begins—and where lasting change is sustained.

My work has always been grounded in one enduring belief: when we strengthen the adults who care for children, we strengthen children’s lives.

Over the past two decades, that belief has guided my work with families, clinicians, supervisors, organizational leaders, hospitals, universities, child welfare systems, state agencies, foundations, and national initiatives dedicated to improving the lives of infants, young children, and their caregivers.

While my roles have evolved—from psychotherapist to supervisor, educator, implementation partner, and leadership consultant—the focus of my work has remained remarkably consistent: building the capacity of the people, organizations, and systems that support children and families.

I maintain a limited clinical practice because it keeps me connected to the everyday realities of families’ lives. Those experiences continue to shape my teaching, consultation, and leadership, ensuring that my work remains practical, clinically grounded, and responsive to the challenges professionals face every day.

As a Senior National Trainer in Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), a member of the CPP Global Steering Committee, an international reflective consultant, and a trainer in Facilitating Attuned Interactions (FAN) and DC:0–5™, I have had the privilege of partnering with organizations across the United States and internationally to strengthen workforce capacity, support implementation, and advance relationship-based care.

My work extends beyond delivering professional education. I collaborate with organizations to design Learning Collaboratives, strengthen reflective supervision, develop leaders, support implementation, provide technical assistance, build organizational capacity, and create sustainable systems that help evidence-informed practices flourish long after the training has ended.
