Let's Work Together
Parenting
Parenting is a relationship. Your relationship with your child's is very special-it's her first one. It serves as a blueprint for future relationships. There are no tricks or quick-fixes.
It’s about connection, cultivating empathy, giving acceptance, honoring emotions, trust, perspective taking, effective communication, personal growth, changing your mindset about behavior and growing in peace. Together.


Your Childhood Shapes How You Parent
My approach is rooted in attachment theory, latest discoveries in brain science, developmental psychology and mindfulness. I bring a trauma-informed view. While you can't changed what happened to you-healing is possible. Your past doesn't have to be your destiny.
To learn more about trauma-informed parenting, follow and listen to my podcast.
Discipline
I'm a strong advocate for non-punitive discipline. I'll help you to move from traditional, authoritarian (control, fear-based, punishment-heavy) approach into a more conscious, and peaceful one. You'll learn to set limits with firmness and kindness. Punishments damage your child's brain and your relationship. If your partner is not on board-we can work on that too!


Emotional Needs
In my work I identify and work with six basic emotional needs. They are: safety, connection, acceptance, respect, autonomy, and significance. I'll help you to become better at understanding your children's emotional needs and meeting them effectively. Unmet needs lead to challenging behaviors.

My 4-step powerful formula for staying calm in the moment
Because yelling doesn't have to be part of your parenting toolbox. You CAN become a more patient, less reactive, and calm parent.
By taking a few moments before reacting to calm our nervous system is key in handling those difficult moments mindfully.
Your children deserve that!
YOU deserve that!




Compassion
Put your right hand on your heart and breathe. You got this. This is not an emergency.
Arousal
Assess your arousal level. How activated do you feel in this moment?
Language
Use your one sentence mantra that you created ahead of time to help you get grounded.
Mindfulness
Engage your senses. Feel your body. Feel your feet on the ground.
Never resort to yelling.
Never resort to spanking.
Never resort to rewards and punishments.
"When we control our children, we lose our influence."
-Anna Seewald
mis behavior?
I don't use that word. I think it's punitive, disrespectful and useless.
There is only behavior.
Your child's behavior is a powerful form of communication.
I will teach you how to decode your child's most challenging behaviors, uncover the underlying reasons root causes and hidden factors and elicit cooperation.
We all face the same challenges but our stories and journeys are different.
I want to help you to be the best parent you want to be.
It all starts with a conversation. I'd love to hear your story.
