Are you tired of sticker charts and time-outs? Ever feel like these behavior-based ways of parenting seem to leave you and your child frustrated, alone, and involved in a seemingly never-ending power struggle? What if I told you there’s another way? A way that feels more instinctual, loving, and dare I say…fun? And it’s backed by neuroscience! All behavior makes sense—even the most puzzling! Behavior is communication. But it does take a little (or maybe a lot) of curiosity to understand it. Together, we can approach your child with compassion so you both feel less alone, and you can regain access your parenting intuition.
What You’ll get: Brain based strategies that encourage connection and cooperation. A better relationship with your child. An understanding of child development, neuroscience, and attachment. The courage and confidence to parent your child using your own individual parenting instincts.
Parents don’t want to change behavior, they want a happy, healthy child. Children don’t want to “be bad” they want to do the right thing. I use relational neuroscience and play based therapy to help you understand your child’s behavior so you, the most important person in their life, can help them build strength and resilience.
