You said yes to a child who needed a family. What you got was a child whose nervous system doesn't trust connection — who rages, lies, sabotages affection, and leaves you wondering if you're the problem.I work exclusively with parents of children with Reactive Attachment Disorder and attachment trauma. Not the child — you. Because a regulated, informed parent is the single most important variable in a child with attachment trauma getting better. Author of The EVEN Method. Telehealth in VA and WY. Free 15-min consultation. I help adoptive, foster, kinship, and biological parents raising children with Reactive Attachment Disorder and attachment trauma. We work on understanding your child's nervous system, regulating yourself in the chaos, and responding in ways that build trust over time. You leave with language, scripts, and a clearer view of what's yours to change. You've been told you're too strict. Too soft. Too anxious. Too involved. You've been handed strategies that don't work, books that don't fit, and well-meaning advice from people who've never lived it. You're not failing. You're parenting a child whose wiring makes connection feel dangerous — and that takes a different playbook than the one you were given. Specialties: I help parents of children with Reactive Attachment Disorder, adoption trauma, and severe behavior challenges. Treatment decodes what's beneath the behavior, builds your nervous system regulation, and teaches responses that create felt safety. You'll leave with language, scripts, and steady progress using The EVEN Method — real change, not just insight. Credentials & Experience: Master's Degree in Counseling, Licensed Professional Counselor (Virginia & Wyoming) Certified Positive Discipline Classroom and Parent Educator (Positive Discipline Association)
