What is Stepfamily Coaching?

If you are a part of a stepfamily, you know firsthand how confusing and conflicting just existing within your home can feel. Are you walking on eggshells? Are you avoiding confrontation just to keep the peace? Are there explosive arguments over seemingly small things?
Stepparents, especially stepmoms, often feel like no matter what they do, they just can't win. This often turns into discouragement and self-doubt, and then next thing you know, you're feeling angry and resentful and you just want to hide. Does this sound familiar?
​
When family members feel insecure and emotionally unsafe within their home, creating a peaceful environment is nearly impossible. How can you set the tone for your home if you feel constantly out of control or unsure of your role in every scenario?
One of the biggest barriers to stepfamily growth is a lack of understanding of the stepfamily structures, which differ greatly from nuclear families in the way bonds are formed.
Stepfamily coaching is a supportive professional relationship that gives you the tools and education understand the stepfamily architecture so you can begin to create patterns and behavior changes within your home that strengthen the family unit and bring clarity, connection, and stability.​
What Sets Me Apart?

As a social worker, certified parent coach, and stepmom five times over, I've been tested by the fire. I know what works and what doesn't in building step relationships. I've learned through my own experience and step family education how to manage disappointment, quell resentment (both of which are in the anger category), and other big emotions that feel too big to manage alone.
I can help you create shared meaning and values in an ever changing home environment, while protecting your own peace and prioritizing your marriage. Every stepfamily is extremely unique and there is not a one size fits all approach to growth. You an experienced guide who understands the overarching stepfamily dynamics but also recognizes what sets your specific family apart.
Many things contribute to how a stepfamily functions, including ethnic and cultural background, lived experiences, trauma, etc. In order to heal, you must have a practitioner who is aware of how all of these puzzle pieces affect the whole to help you and your family bring calm to the chaos.
