Life as a parent can sometimes feel very stormy for you and your child. It might feel like there is no let-up in facing a big challenge that won’t go away.

Or you can’t catch your breath between the constant stream of challenges that keep coming your family’s way.

Challenges like navigating big emotions, anxiety, overwhelm, high-sensitivity, self-criticism, difficulty coping with the demands of everyday life and difficulty with friendships and relationships, and more..

Facing these challenges can leave you drained and deeply frustrated.

It can take a toll on your relationship with your child. And on the whole family.

Imagining a life where your child and you grow strong because you have the skills and self-trust to meet difficulties - big and small - can feel impossible Especially a life where a deepening of trust in yourself and each other allows your relationships (within and between) to thrive..

Let me guide you as we walk the steps of the Pathway together:

Enabling you to feel grounded and self-connected and to find your emotional balance - to feel at Home.

Allowing you to connect and co-regulate with your child so that they learn the skills of emotional regulation and how to trust themselves.

Empowering you both to learn how to find solutions to challenges because you both feel self-connected and self-regulated - when you both feel at Home.

Showing you through direct experience that when you are both at Home, your capacity to work things out together grows.

Facilitating you to experience a deepening of your connection with your child and with yourself.

Supporting you to gift yourself and your child lifelong skills of self-trust and resilience so that you both know that you can meet life’s challenges and grow stronger.

And when you go stronger together you both know and trust in your own innate worth and capacity to flourish - because you have walked this path together.
