Her journey to understand, guide, and love her kids well led her to become a Trust Based Relational Intervention practitioner. The principles of TBRI have changed her home from the inside out.

Organizing, advocating and teaching are core strengths and she loves to share what she learned by equipping other parents to handle the difficult seasons of parenting.
