You are the gatekeeper of
your child’s world.
Life eh? No one can truly prepare you for it.
It unfolds in ways we don’t expect, filled with challenges, joys, and everything in between. Sometimes, it’s hard to accept that the only choice we have is how we respond—especially when life feels completely out of control. I see you, and I get it. But here’s the thing: life happens, and we can still decide how to learn and grow from it—not just for ourselves but to model for our children what it means to ride the waves. It’s not easy, but we can build our capacity for more by feeling it all. The deeper we allow ourselves to go, the lighter we’ll eventually feel. That’s the paradox of life: the hard stuff holds the keys to our greatest strength and light.
Hey, I’m Lynne
occupational therapist, SIMPLICITY + Shadow coach
As a sensitively wired mother and Libra, I’m deeply attuned to the need for balance and beauty in life’s complexities. My own journey of navigating motherhood, caregiving, and healing has shaped my belief that resilience isn’t about doing it all—it’s about embracing what matters most and allowing space for what we can’t control.
With over 20 years of experience as an occupational therapist, I’ve supported hundreds of families through pivotal moments, from early intervention to coping with medical trauma, sensory challenges, and major life transitions. I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal lived experience, weaving together practical strategies with deep empathy and understanding.
As a 1/3 Emotional Manifestor in Human Design, I thrive on initiating change and guiding others to align with their own truth. I honor life’s ebbs and flows and create space for transformation that feels both intentional and deeply personal.
I’m known for my intuitive knowing and a "let's figure it out" energy that keeps me grounded even in life’s hardest seasons. As a shadow coach, I guide women to explore and integrate the hidden parts of themselves—the fears, patterns, and stories we often push aside. Together, we uncover the wisdom in these shadows, helping you reclaim a sense of wholeness, compassion, and strength.
While life can feel overwhelming, I believe profound shifts come from small, simple changes. Whether it’s a mother feeling more grounded or a family finding new ways to connect, these changes ripple outward in powerful ways.
I am especially passionate about working with parents who want their children to feel safe, secure, and free from the struggles they had growing up. Together, we create a foundation where your child can thrive—and so can you.

A few things to know about me…
Beach Days
I love the beach—though the water has to be bath-temperature before I’ll even think about getting in!
Truth Seeker
I love diving into conversations that explore who we are and what truly matters.
Finding Balance
I need my solo time and am learning to bring more lightness into life since I can take things seriously.
Family First
Snuggling with my kids and watching them grow is one of the greatest joys of my life.
Behind the Laughter
There’s always more to a picture than meets the eye.
In this moment, we were all laughing uncontrollably because I’d unleashed one of my silent-but-lethal farts, and we couldn’t hold it together for the photographer.
What you can’t see is that this was taken days before our cross country move n the summer of 2020. Which followed the hardest season of our lives—from navigating fertility struggles, losses, and a decade-long journey with my husband’s incurable cancer.
Life is messy, unpredictable, and often heartbreaking. But moments like these remind me that even in the mess, laughter is a kind of medicine.
