It's hard to be a mom in today's world. Modern day expectations are that mothers do it all. With long days and some sleepless nights, many mothers attempt to balance work and home life. If you have a high stress job, or struggle with anxiety and/ or depression, the task can seem insurmountable.

As a parenting coach, my goal is to help make your parenting job easier. Oftentimes, we attempt to parent in ways we saw modeled for us growing up. Yet due to changing times and societal norms, today's teen requires a whole different type of support.

Never has social intelligence, emotional intelligence and problem-solving skills been more important for them. It's not just about encouraging them to get good grades and clean their rooms. It's about teaching them how to be flexible, resourceful and cultivate the grit to persevere past any obstacles.

Let me help you to help your teen. 15 years as a respectful parenting coach had helped me understand what parents need to be most effective in supporting their teen. In a few short weeks, we can untangle some of the challenges that are getting in the way of your ability to help your teen thrive.
