Truth + Grace

You are exhausted. Tired of yelling. Worried your angry reactions are ruining your relationship with your kids? Terrified your own trauma is traumatizing your child. You’re feeling stuck and don’t know what else to do. I’m here to tell you there IS hope, and I can help.

I help overwhelmed parents of young kids who are feeling defeated by persistent behavioral challenges, break free from yelling and unhelpful consequences by teaching effective, grace-filled strategies for correcting behavior while maintaining security, love, and connection with their child.

I’m a trauma-informed Social Worker, Connected Families Certified Parent Coach, and founder of Truth + Grace. With a decade of experience serving families through pastoral care, child protection services, and behavioral health care coordination, I love equipping caregivers with practical skills based on brain science and biblical teaching through individualized coaching and engaging workshops.

I became certified in the Connected Families Framework in 2023 after having coached parents for several years and continually seeing parents get stuck in cycles of behavior that were passed down to them from their own parents, which resulted in wounding and a ruptured foundation.

Without first evaluating what’s going on in ourselves as parents, at a soul level, we are not going to be able to consistently implement any parenting strategy. Although most parents come to me with questions like, “My kid is doing XYZ; what should I do?” the place we actually need to begin is, “What’s going on in you?” When we support the parent, we support the child.

Supporting and strengthening families has always been my mission.

With the help of Connected Families, I have learned how to replace the toxic beliefs that trigger angry blow-ups with God’s grace-filled truths that foster connection and build a legacy of faith, hope, and love in my own family.

And now I’m ready to teach you how to do it too.

I specialize in children’s mental health and trauma prevention. I have experience helping families with kids of all ages and feel especially called to support parents of young children ages 2-10.
