You Try So Hard to Be the Best Parent You Can Be, and Yet, Too Often, You End Up
Being The Parent You Never Wanted To Be!
I see you! I was you! In my work with parents over the past 15 years, I have come to understand that becoming more responsive and less reactive as a parent doesn’t come from more will, but rather from more skill.
1 On 1 Parenting Coaching Can Help You Be
The Best Parent You Can be
That's why I invite you to start with a 1 hour Parenting Support Consultation. This will give you the following opportunity:
-
Identify your top parenting challenges
-
Explore the impact of these challenges on your family
-
Get really clear about your personal goals and intentions for the change you want
-
Have the opportunity to feel heard by your partner and to listen to them (if applicable)
-
Learn about my parent-centric philosophy (and have time to ask questions about it).
-
Begin to make sense of your kids’ behavior so you can see a path to helping them.
-
Determine if we'd be the right fit to work together
-
Connect you to the best resources (mine or others' I trust) to help you move forward.
Susan & Jason’s Story
(an artist, a teacher & parents of 2)
When we first reached out to Kathy, we were exhausted and unable to enjoy our family. My 9-year-old was so stressed out about school that he often refused to go. We were left fielded by unpredictable explosive outbursts from him and stuck in a cycle that we couldn’t get out of.
The practices, perspective and calmer foundation we worked on with Kathy over the following six months made a seriously huge difference! We’re now three months into the new school year and it’s going SO WELL for our son!!!!!
He’s been on time to school, barely an outburst, bravely trying to write, having big math success and making friends. He’s only had two mental health days out of 13, which was unheard of to date. Seeing him way more “present”, and so happy, is overwhelmingly beautiful.
Update: It's been a year since we completed our work with Kathy. Our intense work last spring and summer created a reset – a new, steadier foundation from which things have continued to get better. Our son's last year has been a banner one! Tantrums are rare. When they happen, he can pull himself out quickly. At the same time we know how to set up better expectations, give him space and support him, while also keeping our cool as we ride out the hard moments. He made it to nearly every day of school and was really part of his class for the first time in his school career. Overall, it’s harmonious here and much more like the family I envisioned and hoped for. We're ever grateful we did the work with Kathy.
