Whether you have been diagnosed or you’ve just often struggled…
Whether you’re parenting a child who struggles or a spouse/partner…

With the right tools, the right strategies, and the right support…
- That potential becomes progress
- That sensitivity becomes self-awareness
- That overwhelm becomes clarity
- That inner brilliance becomes real-life success

You don’t need to try harder at the things that you’re already doing. You need systems that reflect who you are, with grace and space to unlearn shame, and support that sees you fully.

That’s what I offer through my ADHD coaching for children, teens, and families— rooted in faith, culturally grounded, backed by neuroscience evidence.

DM me to learn how coaching can help you move from surviving to thriving— with peace, purpose, power.

You’re not too much. You’re more than capable. You just need the right support to RISE.

ADHD doesn’t always show up in chaos. Sometimes it’s hidden under achievement, perfectionism, and exhaustion.

You look put together, but your mind won’t stop.
You have big dreams, but they stay half-finished.
You’re productive, but not peaceful.

Many high-achieving adults with ADHD experience quiet overwhelm, creative burnout, and a deep internal fear of being “too much” or “not enough.”

ADHD is a difference in the way our brains process and interpret information— not a personal flaw. And for many high-functioning adults, it’s an invisible weight that shows up in:

- constant overwhelm, but no clear direction
- creative energy, but no systems to sustain it
- internalized pressure to be everything to everyone
- quiet fears of failure, rejection, or being “too much”

Coaching offers a space to slow down, build structure that works for you, and offer support for your ideas, goals, and relationships with more clarity and self-trust.
It’s not about changing who you are—it’s about understanding how you work best.

Your child or teen might not have the words, but they are communicating something! In my work, I help children and teens explore what’s underneath so they can feel seen, heard, and supported.

We don’t have to wait until it becomes serious— too often, I see children and teens for the first time AFTER suicidal thoughts, self-harm, or hospitalization—BUT, support does not have to be reactive. Getting your child support isn’t a failure on your part— it’s a reflection of your love and awareness. Whether it’s 3 months or 3 years, giving your child someone to walk alongside them can make a HUGE difference. Send me a message or visit my site to learn more about therapy for children and teens.

Some children move through the world differently. They may struggle with transitions, seem overwhelmed by change or things in their environment, feel “too much” or “too big” for others to understand.

These are not signs of defiance. They may be signs of neurodivergence— a different way of thinking, processing, and experiencing the world!

At Connection Haven, we support children, teens, and their families with:
ADHD, Autism, Sensory Challenges, and Anxiety & Emotional Dysregulation!
Our work centers on compassion, insight, and relationships. When a child feels seen and supported for how they were created by God—not who the world expects them to be—thriving happens!

We offer in person sessions in Atlanta & Augusta and virtual sessions statewide!

So many of us moms are carrying the weight of being “the calm one.”
BUT wholeness isn’t about getting it right all the time— it’s about slowing down long enough to ask, “what’s happening in me in this moment?” And “what does my child truly need from me in this moment?”
When we reflect, we parent with clarity, not chaos.
God isn’t asking for perfection from moms—He’s inviting us to pause and partner with Him.

What if parenting wasn’t about doing more or fixing more—but about becoming more grounded, more present, and more reflective?

You were made for this—not to hustle through motherhood or prove your worth, but to show up with spiritual clarity, emotional presence, and deep connection.

Wholeness in Parenting is a grace-filled, faith-rooted approach to raising your child and becoming more of who you’re called to be in the process.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing tools, truths, and encouragement to help you parent from a place of wholeness—not perfection.

You wouldn’t know she’s anxious just by looking at her. She’s responsible, well-liked, and always on top of it all. But what you don’t see is the silent pressure she carries— the fear of messing up, the weight of expectations, and the constant self-questioning of: “Am I enough?” High-achieving girls are often praised for their performance, but inside, many of them are running on anxiety and perfectionism. What they need is the space to BE. If you are raising a girl who seems to have it all together on the outside but something in your gut sees the silent struggle, this space is for you. Follow for more tools to parent anxious girls with connection and confidence.

Did you know that a child’s sense of security starts forming in their very first year of life? At its core, security isn’t just about safety— it’s about feeling seen, protected, and emotionally held. Babies don’t just need food and shelter; they need to FEEL SAFE IN THEIR CONNECTIONS. This feeling of security shapes the way we build relationships for the rest of our lives.

No one gets parenting perfectly right (because perfect parenting doesn’t exist). But, the good news? A secure connection is built in the small, everyday moments.

At Connection Haven, this is what we focus on— helping parents nurture deep, secure bonds with their kids that last a lifetime!
