blending a family is a journey, not an event.

"Nika has been an incredible support for me during a challenging time. Her deep understanding of the anxiety and stress that come with high-conflict communication has made a world of difference. She not only empathizes but provides practical tools that make navigating these situations manageable. Nika’s approach has given me the confidence to handle difficult conversations with much more ease and clarity. I’m so grateful for her guidance."

no matter where you are on your journey, I've got you.

Despite what you may have heard or how others might have minimized your role, being a stepmom is a huge deal. You're not just joining a family; you're helping to create a new one. Maybe your expectations don't quite match your reality, or you're feeling anxious about all of the unknowns. You might be struggling to bond with your stepkids or wondering where you fit in. I promise, you are not alone. If nothing changes, nothing changes. There's hard work ahead, and I'm here to support and cheer you on as you become the healthiest and happiest version of yourself!
