Military Members & Families

Sometimes it can feel like no one around you has the faintest idea of what you go through every day. When you signed on to serve, you pictured yourself fighting bad guys and saving the world—you probably didn’t picture missing the birth of your child, losing a friend in combat, or the loneliness of coming home and readjusting to civilian life.

It can be hard to find your identity outside of military life. It can be hard to restore your relationships that may be hurting from years of deployment or from barriers you feel have been building up around you.

As part of a dual military family, I have firsthand experience of the enormous impact of military service on family relationships.

Spouses and loved ones of military members, you probably never could have imagined the isolation, how sometimes it feels like you have to do everything on your own—from attending your kids’ baseball games solo to endlessly explaining your partner’s absence to people who don’t get it, to refinancing the mortgage alone, and everything in between.

I work with military members and families to help them find connections again. This may mean rekindling the love again with your spouse, heading back to school, finding a new career that helps you wake up in the morning with purpose, or re-igniting your own values to figure out what kind of life you want to live.
