Supporting your teen’s emotional wellbeing isn’t always easy
Without a clear way forward:

Hello, I’m Jodie!
Author & Psychologist
I know what it’s like to want to support your teen but not know how to help.
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 supportive - bringing my psychology and creativity together to help teens feel seen, 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.
