I am thrilled to announce that I have expanded my availability for one-on-one table talk sessions to include some availability this weekend, just as many of you requested. I realize weekdays can be extra difficult to fit a table talk into, so I am hoping the added time slots will provide a wider range of possibilities that are suitable for your booking needs and schedules. Whether you need a little support or a lot of it, I am here for you! Many spots are available this weekend just for you! Same-day booking (2 hours in advance) is available this weekend, but hurry and book your spot today, as they will go fast.

As an adoptee and a certified grief recovery method specialist, I am dedicated to supporting and guiding adoptees who have experienced the unique challenges of adoption. I have personally walked the path of adoption and understand the complexities and emotions that come with it. 

My mission is to be a lifeline for adoptees who feel lost or isolated in their journey. I have received many requests to expand my Table Talk availability. I am excited to share that I have new times available, including some weekend spots THIS WEEKEND! Whether you need a listening ear, advice, or a shoulder to lean on, I am here, ready to help. 

BOOK YOUR TABLE TALK SESSION TODAY

Sessions will fill up fast!

By sharing my personal experiences and insights, I aim to help you navigate the ups and downs of the adoptee experience. One of the most positive dynamics of having a mentor who understands is the validation that comes with knowing you are not alone. 

Building a relationship with someone who has walked a similar path can bring you a genuinely invaluable sense of connection and understanding. It can also provide you with the comfort and reassurance you need to move forward with confidence and resilience. 

Having an adoptee lifeline who understands can significantly enhance your quality of life. With someone in your corner who has overcome similar struggles, you can gain a fresh perspective on your own journey and learn practical ways to cope with the challenges that may arise. 

I am here to provide you with the encouragement, support, and ear that you need as you navigate the complexities of adoption. Whether you're an adult adoptee looking to explore your identity or a birth parent seeking healing, I am here for you every step of the way. So come on, sign up for a table talk session - together, we can embark on this wild and beautiful journey of self-discovery and growth.
