Parenting Services

Most of us get dropped into the most important role of our lives with very little idea how to actually do it. I mean the big stuff.

Building attachment. Setting boundaries. Establishing our family values. Effective discipline. Teaching them how to be good people. Creating a home our children want to come back to. ​​

 

I can help with that.

My Story

I became a parent in an unusual way: I started fostering when I was 38, single, and living across the country from family. And I didn’t have the luxury of starting with an infant; I got two under three, then moved on to teens! Talk about jumping in the deep end! 

 

What I did have was a lot of experience with kids, excellent training about attachment, development, and trauma, and about 20 years of leadership training.  

 

Those things gave me the perspective, confidence, and tools that I’ve used to navigate all kinds of parenting challenges. 

 

I love being a parent! And I’m pretty good at it. Not because of secret knowledge or innate gifting. But because I know how to identify a problem and make a plan. I can tell what's really important and what doesn't matter. I can see the big picture and make day to day decisions that line up with my ultimate purpose: Launching a strong person into the world, secure in attachment, knowing they are loved. 

 

Now it's my privilege to help other parents navigate the rough spots and build strong, loving relationships with their kids!

Parent Coaching

Your children need you to lead. Did you know that? Most parents don't. There's no manual for this and parenting can be overwhelming. But you are more capable than you think. 

As your coach, I'm in your corner, 100% committed to your goals. I can help you identify what's holding you back and I will tell you the truth about it. I'll help you find solutions that work for your family and be fiercely on your side as you grow.

Whether you want to book one session or sign up for six months, the first step is always a conversation. Book a free consultation to talk about your needs and see what's best for you.
