Supporting Parents, Caregivers, & Siblings of a Child With Diverse Abilities
Virtual therapy anywhere in California
When someone you love needs more support, the whole family feels it.
Some days it feels like everything is on your shoulders—communication with schools, therapies, behavior plans, medical decisions, bedtime routines.
There may be guilt, grief, or resentment you never say out loud.
Siblings can feel responsible or forgotten, even when they love their brother or sister.
You’re doing everything you can, and it’s still a lot.
Parents start catching themselves before overwhelm takes over.
Siblings learn to say what they need instead of shutting down.
You’re able to be present in moments that used to trigger panic or tension.
There’s more breathing room. More compassion. More ease.
With support, families feel more steady and connected.
Why choose me for this work
With 20+ years in pediatric developmental care and working with infants, children, teenagers and young adults with chronic conditions, you won’t have to explain the world you live in.
I understand the emotional weight of IEP meetings, schedule changes, medical systems, and everyday caregiving.
My work combines attunement, nervous-system grounding, and deep compassion so you feel more supported and less alone.
