KC works with adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating significant life transitions, especially in competitive environments. With extensive experience in supporting individuals dealing with addictions, divorce, or major changes and loss, KC provides tailored guidance to promote personal growth and resilience.

Parenting Work

Parenting kids and teens is no easy task! If you’re struggling to support your child or looking to parent (or co-parent) with more confidence and ease, KC is here to guide you. Together, you'll find approaches that are realistic and aligned with your values and goals.

Admissions Prep 

KC works with kids, adolescents, and families to help them prepare for the admission process and entry into independent middle and high schools. Combining her background in mental health and admissions, along with her experience working with new students and families, KC helps her clients to examine their goals in these key transitions, and to make choices from a place of strength and clarity.

 

KC offers a range of services to assist clients in navigating the competitive admissions process. She reviews application materials, helps clients refine their personal narratives, and conducts mock interviews to prepare them thoroughly. Additionally, KC provides comprehensive support and guidance, ensuring each student and family not only stand out in their application and interviews, but also successfully transition into their new school community.

Consulting 

KC provides consultations and conducts workshops for middle and high school students, faculty, and parents about substance use and abuse, consent and healthy relationships, and the mental health and social concerns that often accompany transitioning to high school and to college. 

​

KC collaborates with a variety of independent schools in the New York City area, and continues to work closely with many of them. In 2023, KC launched the NY-Based Independent School Health and Wellness Educators Group which is comprised of over 40 schools in and around NYC.
