Parent and Child Counseling, Synergistic Play Therapy, and Sleep Consulting: When you or your child is losing sleep. From day one, we question how we will parent our children: how we get pregnant, our birth plan, will we nurse, will we bedshare, send them to private school, make them take piano lessons.
We do everything we dreamed of doing as a parent, and yet somewhere along the way it begins to feel as though every day is a circus. Dreading bedtime, only to fall into bed and wonder how you survived yet another day of powerless parenting. Be assured that if you are currently seeking support for you or your children, then you are far from messing up.

As a registered psychotherapist and certified sleep consultant based in Boulder, Colorado, I provide support for families throughout the United States and as far as China, Italy, Israel, and Dubai. My specialty is working with parents of children ages 4 months to 10 years of age who are experiencing challenging sleep, attachment, aggression, or anxiety behaviors.
Remember when you held your baby and had amazing hopes and dreams of who they will become and all the adventures they will experience? You probably didn't imagine feeling isolated or not in control of your family life. You now have a stack of parenting books on your bedside table and have registered for a workshop or two - but none of them speak specifically to your struggles in your family.
Your child's teacher just emailed you (again) trying to delicately tell you that your child has acted out (again), and your heart sinks. You try to respond gracefully and with a sincere apology - and yet you are at a loss with how to help your child. It's easy to wonder where you went wrong in your parenting, getting lost in the dark without anyone to answer your questions.
Dysfunctional sleep behaviors can create havoc in the whole family. You hear your child cry out in the middle of the night, and a heavy weight falls on you. You somehow drag yourself to sitting and go to them, trying to rack your brain for what you're going to do this time. You're probably trying everything to put your child to bed, but it feels like you're part of a circus.
Currently, all children are being seen in person, however, parents will be contacted over the phone. Our waiting room is currently closed, but if you are arriving for your first session you are able to walk your child up. Masks are encouraged for kids, I will be wearing one as well. The children and I will be washing our hands before and after each session.
