Book Your Complimentary Clarity CallWhen something feels off at home...
Â
Maybe your child is struggling, your teen is pulling away, or family life feels more tense and reactive than you would like it to be.
You don't need to have the perfect words for what's happening.
You just need a desire to help.
There's more than one way forward.
Every family is different. The right starting point depends on what’s currently happening.
Parent Guidance
For parents who are tired of second-guessing themselves and want clear, compassionate strategies that actually work for their unique child and family.
Boundaries, follow-through, motivation, co-parenting stress, differences in parenting styles, rebuilding trust, creating more consistency at home, establishing a more united front, knowing when to push or back off, and other parenting concerns.
Child & Teen Growth
For children and teens who need a steady, encouraging space to build emotional awareness, communication, confidence, and healthier ways for handling difficult moments from someone they'll trust, listen to, and feel empowered by.
Self-esteem, self-doubt, big feelings, friendship/sibling struggles, school stress, social pressure, identity questions, bullying, communication, future goals, life transitions, feeling more confident and understood, among other concerns.
Family Support
For families who feel stuck in the same futile arguments or painful patterns - and want help finding a better way to communicate and reconnect.
Communication breakdowns, emotional distance, sibling tension, trust issues, empathy-building, reactive patterns, family transitions, divorce, blended family dynamics, relocation stress, repairing connection after conflict, and other family concerns.

A Note from Cleo
One of the hardest parts of parenting is knowing when to step in, when to step back, and when to ask for support.
Many parents come to me feeling worried, exhausted, and worn down by the constant second-guessing: "Am I pushing too hard, not doing enough, or missing something important?"
You're not meant to carry that uncertainty alone.
This work isn't about blame, labels, or judgment. It's about understanding and rewriting the pattern, repairing what feels strained, and creating more calm and trust at home.
Also, while I hold a doctorate in clinical psychology focusing on child development and family systems, this work is non-clinical coaching and family support. I don't provide psychotherapy, diagnosis, or clinical psychological treatment. Part of my role is helping families understand what approach may work best for them, including when clinical care from a licensed provider may be needed.

From a Previous Child Client:
From Past Parents:
"Cleo didn’t just support our daughter, she strengthened our whole family. Things feel a lot calmer at home now, and I'm feeling much more confident at handling whatever comes next."
Alessandra S. -Â Teacher's Aide
"I was feeling unsure about how things were going with my teenage daughter. Nothing was obviously wrong, but I could sense she was holding back from us. Eventually, I realized she might benefit from having someone outside the family to talk to, and that’s when we found Cleo.
Right from the start, my daughter connected with her. Cleo was warm, easy to talk to, funny, and genuinely helpful. Through their sessions, my daughter learned better ways to handle what she was feeling and started to seem more like herself again. I could see her confidence grow, which meant so much to us.
My husband and I also had some parent and family sessions with Cleo, and they were incredibly helpful. She has a great mix of being kind and direct at the same time. She didn’t sugarcoat things, but she also never made us feel judged. She helped us see where we were going astray and gave us simple things to try at home that actually made a difference."
"We were struggling as a family, and Cleo met us exactly where we were. She gave my kiddo tools that work and gave me the relief of knowing we’re on the right path."
Mary L. - Psychologist
"I cannot thank Cleo enough for the safe, supportive space she created for my kiddo. As a psychologist myself, I know how important that is, and I was so grateful to see how quickly my child felt comfortable with her.
My child had already been diagnosed with ADHD and was finding it hard to manage big feelings and reactions, especially when overwhelmed.
Cleo helped them build emotional awareness and communication skills, better understand what can lead to overwhelm, and come up with practical calming strategies they could actually use at home and in the classroom."
