Meet Your Wellth Advisor: Transforming Family Dynamics into Lasting Resilience
I founded the Family WELLth Management Program with a clear purpose: to empower families to invest in emotional health and resilience as they would financial wealth, creating a legacy of connection and well-being for generations.
Drawing from nearly two decades of experience in family coaching, I’ve developed a unique approach that treats family systems as living ecosystems, requiring care, intention, and personalized strategies to thrive. My work focuses on equipping families with the tools they need to navigate challenges, heal relationships, and foster long-term growth. As a co-founder of Wide Wonder, I’ve also dedicated my career to breaking down stigmas around mental health and substance use challenges. My passion lies in advocating for families and creating safe, supportive spaces where healing and connection can flourish. Through Family Wellth Management, I meet families exactly where they are, offering practical, compassionate guidance that addresses their specific needs. Whether your family is facing stress, relational breakdowns, or seeking stronger bonds, I’m here to help you turn challenges into opportunities for transformation. Together, we’ll build a thriving foundation that supports every member of your family now and into the future. Your family’s greatest legacy starts here. |
Coaching for Family Wellth: Guiding Your Path to Connection and Growth
In the Family Wellth framework, coaching serves as a practical and empowering guide for families navigating challenges and seeking transformation. Unlike traditional therapy, which often focuses on unpacking past traumas, Family Wellth coaching emphasizes the present and future—helping families set meaningful goals, develop actionable strategies, and create a vision for lasting connection and resilience.
For families impacted by relational stress, mental health challenges, or life transitions, coaching provides the tools to rebuild trust, improve communication, and foster a culture of emotional Wellth. With an objective perspective and a solution-oriented approach, coaching equips families to identify their strengths, address obstacles, and move forward with confidence.
Ultimately, coaching is your family’s roadmap to growth—a step-by-step guide to navigating challenges, strengthening relationships, and building a foundation for a thriving future together.

"The words most frequently used to describe what I do include identify, engage, encourage, motivate, share, express, enhance, orient, help, link, consult, monitor, transport, praise, enlist, support, organize, and advocate."
Drawing from my 21 years of recovery and dedicated study, I've uncovered that unwavering, compassionate conversation can be a beacon of hope for healing. With an open heart and empowering approach, I guide families through the maze of a scary diagnosis and early recovery, igniting a sense of safety and optimism.
Guided by esteemed figures like Judith Landau, Beverly Buncher, Lori Jean Glass, Miles Adcox, Brad Reedy, and Brad Lamm, I've engaged in continuous education, workshops, therapy, and conferences focused on family recovery. This commitment, coupled with my personal healing journey through Onsite and The Bridge to Recovery, equips me to assist families in their transition from the tumult of addiction, mental and emotional health challenges and trauma.
My extensive experience and training has earned the trust of high-profile clients, celebrities, professionals, and treatment centers.
