transformational PARENT coaching
finding empowerment and connection in the storm
Craving a parenting reset?
The world is shifting dramatically and rapidly on all levels: politically, economically, climate-wise, etc… and we need humans who are fully embodied, responsive, and ready to lead our children into a world we can’t yet imagine. Is that you? Are you are longing to feel more grounded, connected, calm, and empowered as a parent? Or perhaps you are anxious and overwhelmed and confused by the deluge of parenting information and mandates out there? Or maybe you’re feeling alone and insecure, unsure if you’re doing it “right”? Or you have a sneaking suspicion that all the parenting advice just doesn’t seem to “fit” your kiddo but you’re not sure what else to do? Or your mental and physical health are suffering from parental overdrive and you desperately need support? I know. I’ve been there too.
What I also know is that the more we understand ourselves and what holds us back, the more we come alive. The more alive and embodied we are, the more empowered and creative we are and our parenting shifts in huge ways. Our relationships deepen, our job as parents becomes more rewarding. We live and parent from our values and the noise falls by the wayside. If you are looking for clarity, richer meaning, and connection with yourself and your kids, you’ve come to the right place.
The gift of transformation
As a parent coach I am your cheerleader and accountability partner, deeply supporting you, believing in you, and challenging you to stretch into your fullness. I am not only with you in our sessions, but throughout the week as well with text and email support to encourage and remind you of your values and intentions as you put our work into practice.
I have specialized personal and professional experience with:
- kids with neurodiversity and executive functioning challenges
- kids and adults with anxiety, overwhelm and perfectionism
- LGBTQIA+ kids
- attachment challenges
- work-life balance challenges
- healing crises and chronic illness
A transformational parent coaching session
Although every session is unique, here is a rough blueprint for a typical coaching session:
- CONNECT – How are you doing? After dropping in to bring our full mind and body online, I want to hear about any dimensions of your family and personal life that impact parenting. How are your habits or “experiments” going this week? Are things shifting? How?
- DEEPEN – Together we investigate like a team of compassionate, curious scientists to understand the current challenge more fully.. We peer beneath the surface and discover the tectonic movements driving your and your kids’ current thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviors.
- EXPERIENCE – What do you need to take the next step? A mindful process to dive in more deeply? A new experiment or adjustment to a current one? Practice a new skill or mindset? We get creative to gently and powerfully invoke the next step in your transformational parenting journey.
- GROW – What will you carry from our session into the week ahead? How can I support you? Text check-ins? An email summary of our session? We make sure you are thoroughly prepared to integrate the session and carry it into the week ahead.
