I am a parent educator, a conscious mother, and a teacher with nearly 8 years experience working with students in special education.

​

Throughout my career, I have found the following to be true:

​

Children and families thrive when parents are able to become proactive - positive - prepared. 

​

When parents are able to get in touch with their parental intuition, get clear on their family values, create their family vision, and become confident in knowing the way they'd like to parent.

 

And, when they are able to focus on supporting their parental intuition through learning effective teaching/modeling strategies and creating an environment for their child that supports the development of functional and necessary skills.

My Philosophy...

 

Parenting has shifted dramatically over the last few generations. We have moved away from traditional models overly focused on compliance and 'good behavior' and toward a focus on emotional wellness and intelligence as a foundation for lifelong success. Conscious parenting is rooted in mindfulness, emotional awareness, and intentionality in raising children, focusing on understanding and addressing a child's individual needs while fostering a deep parent-child connection

 

As conscious parents, we no longer assume the child is the problem... we take responsibility for our own patterns and commit to doing the inner work we need to do to establish a strong, secure relationship with our children. We understand that safety and connection between ourselves and our children is of utmost priority, more-so than our child's behavior and how others perceive them. We honor the individuality of our children, and recognize that they may have different beliefs and ideas than we do. We aim to understand and communicate effectively with our children. ​

​

We believe that parenting is not about controlling or molding our children, but about guiding them with empathy, self-awareness, and respect, recognizing that children are individuals with their own unique emotions, thoughts, and developmental journeys.

​

With my ​commitment to positive and respectful parenting practices, I help families develop an approach to raising their children that is tailored around the family's unique vision, goals, and values and aligned with the conscious parenting philosophy.

​

I have worked with families for over 8 years, supporting parents in developing and achieving goals to create meaningful change within their home and beyond.

​

Throughout this time, one underlying pattern has remained consistent:

​

Family change ALWAYS starts with the parents.

​

This is the foundation of my coaching.

​

I believe that in order to become the best parents for our children, we must begin by looking inward and analyzing our own thoughts, emotions, and behaviors first.

​

It is only when we open ourselves to this process that we can start allowing ourselves to be creative and innovative with our parenting; to think outside of the box, to drown out the noise of contradicting parenting advice, and have the courage to ditch outdated and ineffective parenting tactics so that we can build conscious, respectful parenting habits that support a healthy family.

 

 This is not an overnight process; it requires consistency, dedication, curiosity, resilience, and most of all, accountability.

​

That's why I'm here - to provide actionable strategies to help you reach your family goals, and if you need it, also hold you accountable for implementing these strategies and working towards the change that will result in your family's transformation.

​

There's no one-size-fits-all approach to raising children, which is why even consuming all the books, podcasts, webinars, and courses in the world may not fully address your needs. You, your child, your family, your environment are all unique; so addressing challenges requires a thoughtful, individualized approach. That's where I come in! Let's work together to help you create the family dynamic you and your children deserve.
