Before becoming a mom, I was a licensed family and play therapist. I spent years helping kids and parents reconnect through play—and I believed in it deeply.

But then I had kids of my own… and discovered that playing with them didn’t come naturally. In fact, it sometimes felt like a chore. (Yep, even for a play therapist!)

So I got curious. I started tweaking my tools to fit real life—messy mornings, sibling squabbles, clingy goodbyes. I learned how to make playful parenting feel doable and even fun for me, too.

Now, I help other parents do the same.

Whether you’re navigating big emotions, tricky transitions, or just want more ease in the day-to-day, I’ll show you quick, connection-focused strategies that work—even when you’re running on fumes.

Let’s make parenting feel a little lighter… together.
