My parenting journey began in 1994. At the time, co-sleeping, baby wearing, & learning and leaning into your baby's crying were among top tips from the experts from infancy to age 3. In childhood and adolescence, the advice was to keep tuned into your child, have an active involvement in your child's development, dedicate time with them for play and other focused attention, encourage them, and work to boost their self-esteem. It was a big contrast to what my mother, mother in law, and grandparents advised and, let me tell you..... they advised! Overall, through the years, what the experts said we should do, what well-meaning family members offered, and what society suggested, just did not sit right with me. I felt like something fundamental was missing in how I was relating to, caring for, and "raising" my children. Conscious parenting opened up so much insight and opportunity to help me see why what I was doing failed to create change, clarity for why I repeatedly did what did not work, the ability to see and hear my children for the unique individuals they were (and are), and the patience, presence and awareness to foster healthier and stronger relationships with my children.

I never really know what people consider important to them when considering me as a coach, so I will share the work and experience I have as well as what motivates and drives me to do what I do.
Degrees & Certifications: I have training in Emotional Intelligence. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with an emphasis on Child psychology. I am certified as a Master Practitioner and as a trainer of Neuro Linguistics. I am a certified Conscious Parenting coach under Shefali Tsabary, and I am currently enrolled for certification in Conscious Uncoupling under Katherine Woodward Thomas. Since 2007, I have accumulated just under 6,000 hours of training, education, and practice on all of the above listed areas.
What motivates and drives me: Knowing there is always more to learn, especially when it comes to people, and, in particular with children, parenting, and families, hearing about the changes in mindset parents gain and how that transforms their relationships with themselves, their children, and their family, and sharing the skills and tools I have and continue to cultivate to empower my clients.
