Parent Training

“Parents are the ultimate role models for children. Every word, movement, and action has an effect.
No other person or outside force has a greater influence on a child than a parent.”

~ Bob Keeshan

Kids? Help!

Parent Training is perfect for helping parents who are feeling overwhelmed, parents who are baffled by their children’s behaviors, parents who are looking to bolster their parenting “tool box,” and parents who simply want to take their parenting skills to the next level.

Kids can be non-compliant and ignore instructions no matter how many times they’re reminded. They can be impulsive, oblivious to warnings and the rules they’re breaking. Being oppositional and arguing back may be a regular occurrence.

You are likely seeing weekly or even daily meltdowns when asked to do something they aren’t keen on doing.

There’s help – beyond the do-it-yourself books.

At one point or another, every parent becomes stressed, overworked, exhausted, and gets to the end of their rope. Despite the dizzying number of parenting books out there, a manual cannot provide real life support or coaching for the specific challenges you face.

You don’t have to do it alone. There are a number of evidence-based programs that can help bolster the skills needed to manage stress levels, develop better coping mechanisms, understand behavior variables, and create a cohesive rewarding relationship between the parent and child, as well as between parents. These can result in a healthier, calmer, more controlled home environment.

Parent training is a unique blessing.

Parent training is a cross between consultation, behavior modification, learning new skills, and developing a new point of view and mindset.

Sometimes we have to take a step back to fully realize a situation. Parent training offers objective, alternate perspectives around events and patterns of family life.

You will be amazed at how much of a difference a small change can make. By changing what we focus on, the language we use, and how we respond to things, it can transform challenging moments into connecting moments. This will build self-confidence, well-being, and increase time and energy, so you can focus on the joys of your children and partner.

How can I help?

I combine evidence-based practices with what a decade of real-life experiences with countless families has taught me.

Since each family is unique, you will not find a cookie-cutter approach with me. I understand that not every practice will fit seamlessly into every family’s life. But I have the knowledge and experience to piece together those important puzzle pieces.

My ultimate goals are to increase happiness and quality of life. I aim to ease the struggles in order to create more cherished memories.
