Get Help Every Step of YOUR Blended Family Journey

Relationship Coaching Helping Stepcouples & Partners Thrive in Blended Families

Hi, I'm Dr. Teana

My mission in life is to serve others by meeting them wherever they are on their journey and navigating the twists and turns, mountains and valleys, and all the in-between moments. This includes premarital, post marital, stuck spots, and trying to figure out how to move forward.

In all coaching sessions, workshops, and courses, we celebrate successes, even the seemingly small ones.

My Story

As a self-proclaimed nerd, I began my career in IT. Still, it wasn’t long before I realized I was curious about why people act the way they do, how we interact, and how our personalities influence those interactions. 

While I did well in IT, I believed I could thrive by helping others work through challenges and achieve a more fulfilling life. I consider it a gift when clients invite me along their journey.

I grew up as a stepchild and, as an adult, became a stepmother. I’ve seen the healthy and unhealthy aspects of blended families. I’ve experienced acceptance as a stepchild and a stepmother, as well as the challenges of blending while attempting to build a healthy couple relationship. 

I’ve also experienced divorce, co-parenting, and re-partnering. My experiences have allowed me to relate to people in different relationship stages.

My Credentials

I received my Bachelor of Science in Management Information Systems, my Master of Arts degree in Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, and a Doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy focusing on Repartnered Couples with Children.

I am a certified coach. I am trained in several relationship therapy models and use motivation interviewing in my coaching sessions.

More About Me ...

I love reading, watching Grey’s Anatomy and similar shows, and spending time with friends and family. I have a teen daughter.

My fun and competitive spirit shines when I participate in celebrations and play games. I love learning but also enjoy time to just “be.” My favorite vacation spot is anywhere with a lovely, clean beach. And it's not unusual to hear me talking about how beautiful the sky is.

Testimonials

Working with Dr. Teana has been a game-changer for me. Their guidance helped me gain clarity on my goals, overcome self-doubt, and take decisive action in my relationship. I now feel more confident in my role. I highly recommend Dr. Teana to other stepparents and couples.
