How We Can Work Together

Parenting doesn't come with a manual.

But it can feel a little easier with practical tools, encouragement, and someone in your corner.

Whether you’re navigating power struggles, emotional regulation, executive functioning challenges, routines, transitions, independence, sibling conflict, school concerns, or simply want to feel more confident in your parenting, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

My coaching is personalized to your child, your family, and your values.

My work is strongly influenced by Positive Discipline and also draws from child development, emotional regulation, executive functioning, brain science, and nearly 20 years of working alongside children and families.

We’ll look beyond the behavior to understand what may be getting in the way, what skills your child is still developing, and what you can do to support both connection AND growth.

Along the way, I may also use practical tools I’ve developed through my own work, including PRESET and Parent Pause™, when they fit your family’s needs.

Start With a Conversation

Complimentary Discovery Call

20 Minutes | Free

Not sure where to begin?

Let’s talk.

We’ll chat about what’s happening in your family, what’s feeling hard, what you’d like to change, and whether parent coaching feels like the right fit.

There’s no pressure or commitment.

You don’t need to know exactly what kind of support you need before reaching out.

Parent Coaching

Sometimes you don’t need another parenting book, Instagram post, or list of things you “should” be doing.

You need someone to help you slow things down, understand what’s actually happening, and figure out what to try next.

Parent coaching gives us space to do that.

Bring the bedtime battle.

The sibling conflict.

The child who falls apart after school.

The morning that never seems to go smoothly.

The power struggle you keep having over and over.

The school concern you aren’t sure how to handle.

Or simply the feeling that what you’ve been doing isn’t working anymore.

Together, we’ll look at what’s happening underneath the behavior, identify the skills your child may still be developing, and find practical strategies that fit your child, your family, and your values.

Virtual Parent Coaching

60 Minutes | $100

Virtual coaching allows us to step outside the hard moment and look at the bigger picture.

We’ll talk about what’s working, what isn’t, what may be contributing to the challenge, and what you can practice between sessions.

You may choose to meet with me:

  • Weekly while you’re working through something

  • Every other week

  • Occasionally for a parenting check-in

  • When a new challenge or developmental stage comes up

There is no package required.

We take it one session at a time and decide together what makes sense for your family.

Coaching may include support around:

  • Understanding what’s underneath behavior

  • Positive Discipline strategies

  • Emotional regulation

  • Executive functioning

  • Connection AND clear boundaries

  • Parent reactions and regulation

  • Communication

  • Routines and transitions

  • Independence and responsibility

  • Natural and logical consequences

  • Problem-solving

  • Preparing children for expectations

  • What to do during the hard moment

  • What to teach outside the hard moment

  • Sibling relationships

  • School concerns

  • Friendships and social skills

  • Repair when things don’t go as planned

After our session, I’ll send a follow-up with the main things we talked about, strategies to practice, and resources when helpful.

In-Home Parent Coaching

Sometimes it helps to have someone right there with you.

For families in New York’s Capital Region, I also offer in-home parent coaching.

60 Minutes | $125

In-home coaching gives me the opportunity to see your child and family in your everyday environment.

Depending on what your family needs, I may observe, help you notice patterns, coach you through interactions, model strategies when appropriate, and help you think about ways to adjust the environment or routine.

In-home coaching can be especially helpful for things like:

  • Morning routines

  • Bedtime

  • Transitions

  • Emotional outbursts

  • Sibling conflict

  • Mealtimes

  • Toilet learning

  • Following through with expectations

  • Building independence

  • Family routines

Just like virtual coaching, you do not need to commit to a package.

Some families meet with me once.

Some work with me weekly for a season.

Others use a combination of virtual and in-home sessions depending on what’s happening.

What Does Coaching Actually Look Like?

We don’t follow a rigid curriculum.

Your child and your family guide our work.

We’ll usually start by looking at what’s happening right now:

What are you noticing?

When does it happen?

What might your child be communicating through the behavior?

What skill may still be developing?

What are you already doing that’s helping?

Then we’ll decide what to practice next.

Sometimes the shift is something you do differently during the hard moment.

Sometimes it’s something you teach or practice when everyone is calm.

Sometimes we realize the child needs more structure, preparation, connection, independence, or support with an executive functioning skill.

And sometimes the work is helping you pause long enough to respond differently.

The goal isn’t perfect parenting.

It’s understanding your child, responding with confidence, and helping your child build skills they can carry with them as they grow.

Growing With Your Family

One of my favorite parts of this work is continuing to support families as their children grow.

Parenting changes.

The questions change.

Your child’s needs change.

And something that worked beautifully six months ago might suddenly need a little adjusting.

You never have to “start over” with me.

Families often come back for support around:

  • Starting preschool or kindergarten

  • School transitions

  • Executive functioning

  • Building independence and responsibility

  • Friendships

  • Sports and extracurricular activities

  • Emotional regulation

  • Sibling relationships

  • Tween and adolescent years

  • New routines or family changes

Sometimes you simply need a reset, another perspective, or a new tool for the stage you’re in.

Not Sure How Often You Need Coaching?

That’s okay.

You don’t have to decide ahead of time.

Some parents come in with one specific question.

Some meet with me weekly while they’re working through a difficult season.

Some gradually spread sessions farther apart.

And others come back months later when something new comes up.

We’ll take it week by week and decide together what feels useful.

A Note About Accessibility

I believe parents deserve support, and I understand that families have different financial circumstances.
