You work hard to be the best parent you can be!
and yet, too often you End up
At your wit's end

This is a no-judgement zone for LGBTQ+, Blended, Single & Poly parents & caregivers who keep trying all the things but find themselves falling deeper into shame and self-blame.

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.

In other words, it’s not about trying even harder!

Our conditioning sets unrealistic expectations

of parenting perfection.

But those expectations are fantasies that no one can achieve, no matter how things look from the outside.

You are not alone. Most parents struggle with being a parent, and I’ve worked with hundreds of parents just like you.

In fact, you might recognize yourself in the following:

Check all that apply:

You just wish you understood what's happening with your child or teen

You suspect or know your child is grappling with their gender identity.

You’re so willing to do what you need to - if you only knew what to do!

You’ve read the positive parenting books and talked to family & friends but nothing seems to work!

And even when you talk to family and friends, they don't understand what you're going through!

You have perfectionist qualities and high expectations for yourself.

You've been struggling with the same thing for at least 3 months (and maybe years!)!

You’re open-minded and willing to try something different.

You just wish you were on the same parenting page as your partner(s).

If you recognized yourself in at least 5 things on the list, you may benefit from building your essential parenting skills.

Here’s the thing. Brain science and a larger understanding of family dynamics are not typically part of many popular parenting techniques. I believe you can be trying really hard, yet still be missing this key piece of the parenting puzzle...

Many parents are missing a key piece
of the parenting puzzle...

The understanding that Behavior is Communication. Let me give that a minute to sink in because it’s not what you typically hear! Behavior is your child’s first language. This understanding has allowed me to help parents, just like you, in situations that have felt overwhelming or even utterly hopeless and impossible to them.

Foundation Program

That's why I created The Parenting Foundation Program

I have seen again and again in my work over the past 15 years, how a strong foundation of guiding principles, based on the understanding of behavior as communication, combined with successful parenting strategies, rooted in the science of resilience have helped my clients reach their goals. In the process, they've come to:

better understand what's happening with their child or teen.
feel confident about parenting
break the cycles of negative behaviors.
repair and nurture loving connection with their child.
enjoy more peace at home.

My Parenting Foundation Program strengthens
successful parenting skills & helps you respond rather than react to button-pushing behaviors.

Here’s what’s included for $1295 in this 3 month program:

• 9 1 hour one-on-one coaching sessions in person or via Zoom

• A downloadable Step-by-Step manual (The one you wish had come with your kid!)

• Communication via text or email between sessions

• Co-Parent(s) participation for no additional fee

Before deciding whether the Foundation Program is the right support for you, I invite you to meet with me for a 1 hour, stand-alone Parenting Support Consultation.

This will give you the opportunity to talk about what's going on at home for you and receive some immediate empathy, support and relief. I'll share my philosophy and coaching process and we'll have a chance to see how we click, without any expectation of you doing more.

If you do choose to continue with me, the $150 fee for the consultation will be applied to the Foundation Program.

If not, I'll share trusted resources to help you move forward.

Either way, you'll take away a glimmer of hope & a next step to move forward.

Yes. I want a Parenting Consultation
