Welcome to the l&a diaries! 

I’m a wife, a boy mom, a therapist, and a mental health advocate.

The l&a diaries was created to share information about mental health, particularly around women, families, and parenting and to start a conversation about things we often keep quiet. 

My goal is to shed light on areas that are often very dark: anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, loneliness, self-worth etc.  

I’m excited to share a piece of my life with you and hope to hear your stories.

“Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” -Brené Brown
