Hello, I’m Jodie!
Author & Psychologist
I know what it’s like to care deeply about your teen’s emotional wellbeing but not know how to help without pushing or overstepping.
We can’t shield our teens from life’s challenges — but we’re not powerless either.
That’s why I write novels that are both page-turning and emotionally truthful — blending story and psychology to help teens feel understood, and parents feel connected.
Alongside my writing, I offer online Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and coaching sessions for people who want a compassionate space to explore their inner world.
