I am Toni. The character, the therapist, and the person. My personal experience with anxiety has led me to establishing a career as a marriage and family therapist, where I have spent my career helping children and adults navigate the turbulent waters of anxiety. The knowledge and skills that Teeny Tiny Toni will teach you are ones that I continue to find comfort in throughout my daily life, and have the honor of teaching my clients.

I dedicate Teeny Tiny Toni and the Terrible What-Ifs to my family, best friend, and personal therapist, all of whom are not just supporting roles, but main characters in my personal journey of anxiety.

The Anxious Therapist.

I am Vivian.  Toni’s mom.  Our journey together as a family taught us tools and lessons we hope will help your family and friends that struggle with anxiety.  Through our unconventional school days and ups and downs, Toni teaches us everyday that you can do what you think you can’t.

I dedicate this book to my Gifts from God, my children Nicole, Vincent, Erika and Toni.  To my grandsons Vince and Luca, you are the joy in our lives and the magic that will change the world.

Never underestimate the Carpenter’s Daughters and listen for God’s whispers.

The Proud Mom
