You've found a place to pause and re-set your parenting vision.

"Our family has benefitted so much from her guidance, both as a unit and individually." -Laura, New York

Are you a loving and thoughtful parent who wants an even stronger connection with your children? Does parenthood sometimes feel like you're caught in a whirlwind with no chance to sit back, catch your breath, and reflect? Parenting is the most important thing we do with the least amount of guided training. I’m here to help guide you down the path of reflective parenting, with information and advice rooted in neuroscience and developmental theory and my own experience as a mother and an educator.

ARE YOU A PARENT WHO

Wants to nurture your child and find time for yourself?
Would like to find more enjoyment and delight in your family?
Has given too much power to your children, so you feel they are running the family?
Respects your child deeply but finds yourself responding angrily when he or she misbehaves?
Is having trouble leaving for school every morning or getting kids to bed at night?
Finds yourself saying things you promised you’d never say?
Tries to be patient, but finds yourself yelling or losing your cool?
Reads parenting books but feels like the messages are mixed?
Has some parenting goals but doesn’t know how to achieve them?
Feels resentful when your child gets upset with you?
Knows how you want to parent but find yourself being unable to actually do it on a day to day basis?

DO YOU

Know you want to make changes but aren’t sure where to start?
Need to get your spouse on board with your patient parenting style?
Like your caregiver but know you could improve your relationship?

ARE YOU READY

to address your child’s root needs rather than just managing behavior?
to think more about the parent you want to be and figure out how to get there?
to savor and enjoy life with your children much more?

Knowing how you want to parent and being able to do it are two separate pieces that take work to fit together.

FOR MOST OF US, ONLY CONSCIOUS, MINDFUL, PARENTING WILL ENSURE THAT YOUR CHILD WILL

be able to come to you in almost any situation
have an overriding feeling of confidence in him/herself
have the power to stand up for others
know what (s)he wants and have the discipline and drive to go after it
feel loved unconditionally

THROUGH COACHING, WE WORK TOGETHER SO YOU CAN

Navigate your biggest parenting challenges by learning to see and communicate authentically with your child
See how the way you were parented directly and indirectly influences the way you parent
Help you frame your parenting so you feel confident in almost every situation
Make choices about the parent you want to be and be supported while you work to get there
Rewrite the difficult scripts you are enacting and reenacting with your child
Learn to talk honestly with your child now so you can still be talking later
Learn how to communicate without yelling
Create, maintain, and nurture supportive relationships with in-laws and parents
Help your spouse understand and get on board with certain parenting choices you feel strongly about
Create and maintain healthy and fair relationships with caregivers
Scaffold and nurture sibling relationships
Understand how your brain and your child’s brain influence mood and behavior, and how to work with those patterns

My mission is to coach parents so you can learn to see, hear, and honestly interact with the children in your lives.

IF, LIKE ME, YOU ARE SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES THAT CHILDREN

Should be seen and truly heard
Benefit the most when they learn something for themselves through experience
Are to be trusted and treated with dignity
Need to make mistakes
Can be greatly influenced by the adults in their lives
Need adults to help guide their development and growth
Need adults to help them navigate the rapidly changing world
Bring out our greatest love and at times most intense frustration
