Who I Am…

Before becoming a coach, I spent years working in education and mental health. I earned my Bachelor’s in Education Studies and Psychology with a minor in American Sign Language, and quickly discovered my passion for child development and parenting. I began my career as an ABA Therapist and RBT, supporting children with Autism and behavioral challenges both in schools and at home. During that time, I worked closely with parents to help their children thrive, whether that meant learning to communicate, build independence, or navigate challenging behaviors with compassion.

As my work grew, I expanded my desire to support others and earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to become a mental health therapist. I trained and worked in multiple group practices as a clinician and practitioner, providing therapy for children, adults, parents, couples, and families before running my own successful private practice for 4 years. While I loved the work, I realized I wanted to help clients in a more practical, forward-focused way outside of traditional therapy.

That’s when I launched S.I.M.P.L.E. Life Coaching, LLC, where I now combine my background in education, therapy, and behavioral support. I specialize in coparenting and court-ordered coparenting, customized parenting plans, mediation, communication and conflict-resolution, and high-conflict family dynamics. Along with personal experience, I have extensive experience working alongside attorneys, Guardians ad Litem (GALs), mediators, and the family court system to help parents create healthier communication and more effective parenting arrangements. I have successfully supported many high-conflict coparents in moving from constant tension and disagreement to structured, workable systems that give both parents a voice while creating stability for their children. My approach focuses on creating realistic, customized coparenting plans that reduce conflict, improve communication, and help families move forward with clarity and confidence.

With vast experience working with the courts, I am also passionate about supporting families who have children with ADHD or Autism and who are struggling to navigate behavioral challenges at home or at school, acting as an advocate for children and parents who need a direction and more support.
