If you are (becoming) a Stepparent… As a stepmother for 20 years, I have a particular passion for helping step-parents through the unique challenges of stepfamily life. In our eagerness to create a new family by blending two, it is easy to misunderstand how different a stepfamily is from the family of a first marriage. Stepfamilies have their own power and process. Think of it: The child and biological parent, for example, have a longer history together than the new couple. That alone has significance that can reverberate through the new family constellation. Understanding the very predictable and often confusing stages of stepfamily development brings relief and allows the emergence of rich new family relationships. If you are thinking about becoming a stepparent, or are already one, I can help you reach clarity about your situation, and support you in making adjustments and changes that will help you create a wonderful stepfamily life.
