You’ve taken the classes...

You thought you were prepared for the journey of fostering or adopting a child…

But now, as you’re in the thick of it, as much as you love them, it feels like a constant outpouring of energy and time just to meet their needs.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You’re not sure if you’re making a difference or if you can even keep up this pace.
  • Home feels chaotic. The honeymoon period is over, and their challenging behaviors leave you feeling frustrated and exhausted.
  • You thought you knew what to expect, but it’s so much more than you imagined.

You’re beginning to question:

  • Can you meet their needs without sacrificing your own?
  • Can you find balance and hope again?

Here’s how I can help: I provide caregivers like you with the strategies to regain your footing, feel in control, and navigate the complexities of caregiving.

  • Practical tools to work collaboratively with your children, schools, and caseworkers.
  • Support to keep going, even on the hard days.
  • Encouragement to never lose hope and to recognize how incredible you truly are.

You’ve already stepped up in ways most can’t imagine—let me help you thrive in this vital role.
