Parent coaching is a private, supportive, and judgment-free space for parents and caregivers throughout the United States. As a parent coach, I help families identify their unique strengths and values and develop goals that align with their parenting vision -because there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we navigate parenting challenges, from power struggles to meltdowns, using practical, evidence-based strategies rooted in child brain development. This will equip you with clear, actionable tools that foster connection, resilience, and emotional growth for both you and your child. This is your space to process frustrations, ask questions, and gain fresh perspectives - so you can parent with confidence and less stress. You don’t have to do this alone, and I'll be in your corner every step of the way. 

Virtual parent coaching is a private, one-hour video session where you can work towards your personalized goals with expert advice. You’ll receive practical, evidence-based tools - no quick fixes or magic solutions. Perfection is not expected. Through coaching, you can:

✔️ Feel more confident and less stressed in your parenting

✔️ Understand the "why" behind your child's behavior, learn more about yourself and respond effectively

✔️ Create a peaceful home with fewer  conflicts and more cooperation

✔️ Strengthen your bond with your children through connection-based strategies

✔️ Enjoy family life again without the constant battles

✔️ Learn lifelong parenting tools that grow with your family

Video sessions are 1 hour long and typically occur every 2 weeks, allowing time to apply the skills learned between sessions. Most clients schedule 6 sessions, as a single session isn’t enough to create lasting change.

The first session focuses on understanding your family - identifying strengths, patterns and your goals. Future sessions dive deeper into strategies and solutions.

Parents who meet consistently see better results.

Video sessions are conducted through Simple Practice, a secure service to protect your confidentiality and payment information. You will receive a link via email prior to session. 

I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (Medaille College, 2015) and a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology (SUNY Brockport, 2012).

I previously worked as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in NYS specializing in trauma recovery. I have over 21+ years working with children and families in settings from daycare to mental health agencies.

After working as a therapist helping others recover from trauma and becoming a mother myself, I found my passion in supporting the parenting community to proactively build the next generation of healthy, resilient children. As a result, I founded The Parenting Resource LLC where I work exclusively as a parent coach and educator nationwide.

Sessions are $180 per one hour session. Clients may purchase 6 sessions in advance for $840 ($240 savings) and schedule sessions at their convienence. 

Payment is due before sessions start and are done via the Client Portal on Simple Practice, a secure service that will protect your payment information. I do not accept insurance and my services do not qualify for a billable code that is required by most insurance companies. However, I am happy to provide you with a receipt that can be submitted to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.  Any reimbursement would be based on your policy’s out-of-network rates. If you have questions about your coverage, please contact your insurance company to understand your policy benefits for behavioral health sciences. 

I offer a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your concerns and answer any questions you may have. 

Therapy often starts from a place of deficit and focuses on mental health concerns, assuming there is a problem that needs diagnosis and treatment. It explores the root causes of distress and works toward healing.

Parent coaching is solution-focused and strengths-based. Instead of diagnosing, it provides guidance, practical strategies, and confidence-building tools to create a more peaceful, connected family. It’s not about fixing- it’s about growing. While my experience as a mental health therapist provides me with an expertise in this area, you are the expert on your child. 

Coaching is not therapy. If at any point, I believe therapy would be beneficial, I am happy to refer you or a family member to a qualified professional. 

No. Parent coaching sessions are for caregivers only. To make the most of your time, I recommend scheduling when your kids are occupied, except for nursing or sleeping babies. This allows you to focus  and reflect without interruptions. I understand finding quiet time is challenging, so we’ll remain flexible if needed.

I believe in science-backed, connection-based parenting that balances empathy with clear, consistent boundaries to give children the tools they need for a healthy, thriving life while giving parents the confidence to navigate any parenting challenge. There is no one-size-fits all approach. Together, we use what we know about child development and your unique family's goals to create a more peaceful home.

Every parent deserves a safe, private space where they can honestly talk about the reality of parenting and explore new ways to overcome any difficulty. You don't need to figure it all out on your own.

I offer a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your concerns and answer any questions you may have. 

When you are ready to schedule a parent coaching session, you will receive an email with a link to your client portal to complete intake questions and scheduling.
