ARE YOU A WORRIED PARENT?

I WILL COACH YOU TO “PARENT WITH PERSPECTIVE” AND LIIVE WITH GREATER EASE.

ARE YOU A young person, uncertain about your future path?

I WILL COACH YOU TO USE YOUR STRENGTHS TO CREATE A PLAN FOR SUCCESS AND MOVE TOWARDS YOUR GOALS.

BEFORE DECIDING WHERE TO GO OR WHAT TO BE, I HELP YOUNG PEOPLE GET CLEAR ON WHO THEY ARE AT THEIR BEST

I work with families to support them through the college application process and preparation for “launch.” I help parents navigate the challenges of the high school years, transitioning to an “empty nest,” and beyond.
I coach students and young adults in the early stages of their careers to recognize and focus on their best qualities, skills and talents, so that they can reach their true potential and build their best life. I use proven positive psychology coaching approaches designed to improve overall wellbeing, increase happiness, and build resilience.

AS YOUR COACH, I WILL HELP YOU:

  • shift your mindset

  • build your resilience

  • focus on your strengths

  • find greater purpose, meaning and success

  • improve your overall wellbeing

  • …create a HAPPIER, MORE EASEFUL LIFE

 

“I am passionate about raising and educating our next generation with kindness, empathy and compassion. That’s why I founded Parent with Perspective.”

Who I Help

As a Certified Positive Psychology Coach and Parent with Perspective, I love working with:

 
 
  • Individuals and families who want to create their best lives and become happier

  • Overwhelmed moms and dads looking for practical parenting tips

  • Young people preparing for a launch to college and career

  • Moms anticipating an “empty nest” and refocusing on reaching their own potential

 

 

MY FOCUS

Happiness is not a state of being, but a lifelong process of cultivation. When we shift our attention to our strengths, find our joy, appreciate and savor the good, we become happier.

Through coaching, workshops and webinars, I integrate a variety of evidence-based practices from the science of happiness and success, the wisdom traditions, and my own experience, to help people create their best lives, raise happier families, and enjoy more harmonious relationships.

Coaching Benefits

Founded on the fundamental principle that positive change is possible, positive psychology coaches support their clients in clarifying their goals, seeing themselves in a new light, finding hope, taking actionable steps, navigating their way towards what they want to achieve, and celebrating their progress. Through this process, clients create new habits and acquire useful skills that are designed to cultivate resilience, success, happiness and wellbeing.

Read My Book for Educators:

If you could transform school culture through empathy, wouldn’t teaching and learning all things be easier?

This is the question that inspired me and co-author, Angela Stockman, to begin seeking out systems and educators where students and staff flourish.

In our book, we feature stories from game-changing teachers who are taking a human-centered approach. We offer easy-to-implement tools, practices, and protocols for creating and sustaining compassionate classrooms.
