About Me

Hi, I'm Dr. Reon.

I'm a Clinical Psychologist/Neuropsychologist and a mother who has spent years working closely with adults as they navigate anxiety, self-doubt, relationships and the quiet weight of feeling "not enough." Use this link for a free therapy consultation through my private practice, 2nd City Psychological Consulting Services (2nd City Psych).

Again and again in my clinical work, one truth becomes clear: many of the struggles adults carry can be traced back to childhood insecurities – often shaped by the words they heard every day...or the words they never heard it all.

Those early messages quietly influence how we see ourselves, what we believe we deserve, and how confidently we move through the world.

I created (2nd City Psych) affirmations tools to help change that story earlier – bringing intentional, confidence-building language into children's daily lives so they can grow up with a stronger sense of worth, resilience, and possibility.

Because, the words children practice today become the voices they carry into tomorrow.

Welcome to the space where confidence begins early – and lasts a lifetime.

In 2024, I had the opportunity to join Momcast Podcast (Episode 18) for a conversation titled:

"Help Kids Master Their Mindset: The Science of Affirmations and Self Talk."

In this episode, I discuss the research behind affirmations and how a child 's self-talk shapes long-term confidence, emotional regulation and resilience. Drawing from both my clinical work with adults and my passion for empowering children, I share practical strategies parents can use to help their children build a healthier inner voice.
