Personalized parenting and co-parenting guidance in a safe, supportive environment
To provide a compassionate, safe space where families can grow, heal, and thrive together. Whether you’re adjusting to a new parenting structure or seeking better ways to connect with your child, I’m here to help every step of the way.
At the heart of our community lies an unmet need which we have observed with growing concern. Families navigating the complex terrain of divorce, separation, and other profound transitions have few dedicated spaces where the entire family unit can heal together.
The Family Therapy Collaborative emerges from this recognition: a place where children and parents alike find support during life’s most challenging chapters.
What sets us apart is our dual focus—nurturing children through upheaval while simultaneously guiding parents through the intricate dance of co-parenting across separate households. Our approach acknowledges that family bonds endure beyond structural changes, and that healthy families can take many forms.

Parenting can be extremely challenging at times. Not only because our children have big emotions, also because our stress levels can impact what we can tolerate and deal with in a way that is effective
Co-parenting can be extra difficult when you’re navigating your own emotions, resentments and conflict with your partner or ex-partner. Whether you’re dealing with divorce or past hurts, we’re here to help you develop better communication skills and boundaries to reduce tension and make the best choices for your children.
Strengthening relationships begins with identifying unhelpful patterns and learning to approach each other with genuine curiosity. When couples can truly hear one another without resorting to attacks, shame or defensiveness they can create deeper, more meaningful connections.
Kids don’t always have words to express what they’re feeling, but they sure know how to show it. Whether your child is dealing with divorce, a new school, arguing at home or struggling with worrying or anger we are hear to help. We use play, art, and other child-friendly approaches because that’s how kids naturally communicate. We also work closely with the parents to understand what’s happening at home and to give practical tools to support your child. We want to help you understand your child’s world so we can help them feel more confident, calm connected.
Learning to listen to each other by learning to be curious and explaining our perspectives is an important step in connecting. When we are stuck in a pattern of thinking we are right and the other person is wrong or we know more than the others we will stay stuck. We will help you accept differences in each other.
13-25 years are tough. Between figuring out who we are, what we want to do with our life, dealing with friend/relationship drama and school and family pressures we can become overwhelmed. At The Heart Tree, we offer a place where teens can actually talk freely about what’s going on without being judged or lectured. We want to help teens work through their anxiety, depression, family and friend conflicts and everyday struggles while also working with parents to bridge communication gaps.
