About Genesis
Genesis supports parents navigating postpartum anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and the pressure of trying to keep everything together.
Many of her clients come in feeling stretched thin, anxious, or like they have to carry everything alone and leave feeling more grounded, supported, and steady in themselves and their parenting.
Who Genesis Works Best With
Genesis supports:
Parents feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed, or like they have to hold everything together for everyone else
Parents navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and the early years of parenting
Families needing support with child behavior, emotional regulation, or attachment
Parents managing stress while balancing caregiving, relationships, and daily life demands
Parents navigating cultural expectations, intergenerational dynamics, or limited support
She is a strong fit for parents who want care that is respectful, culturally responsive, and focused on real-life family dynamics — not blame or quick fixes.
Genesis’s Approach
If you’ve been carrying a lot on your own and still feel overwhelmed, Genesis focuses on helping you slow down, feel more regulated, and build practical tools you can actually use in daily life.
Genesis’s approach is warm, steady, and collaborative. She integrates EMDR, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and the Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) to support both parental emotional regulation and child development.
Her work focuses on:
Reducing postpartum and parenting anxiety related to emotional overwhelm
Strengthening the parent–child relationship
Building practical tools parents can actually use at home
Helping parents respond with more confidence and calm
Genesis understands that when parents feel supported, children benefit too.
What You Can Expect
Parents working with Genesis often experience:
Less emotional reactivity and more steadiness day-to-day
Greater confidence in your parenting decisions
More effective ways to respond to your child’s needs and behaviors
Feeling more supported instead of carrying everything alone
A stronger sense of calm and connection in your home
Genesis believes healing happens when parents feel understood, respected, and supported — especially during the perinatal period.
