Hello everyone!
I wanted to share something personal with you. I just joined the Neuro-Transformation Training, and Iâm doing it for one simple reason⌠I work with parents who are living in constant stress, and I refuse to let trial and error be the best option theyâre offered.
As a licensed professional counselor, parent coach, and a mom of seven, my work has always been about helping families move from emotional chaos to calm connection.
But hereâs the truth⌠even with training, experience, and a whole toolbox of strategies, thereâs nothing like living it inside your own home.
When your child is emotionally intense,
when meltdowns are frequent,
when the nervous system is on high alert⌠it changes everything. Your patience, your marriage, your confidence, your faith⌠all of it gets tested.
There were seasons where I felt like I was constantly bracing for impact.
Like I was always trying to prevent the next explosion⌠and failing anyway.
And the hardest part wasnât just the behavior⌠it was what it did inside me.
The second-guessing. The guilt.
The quiet fear that I was doing it wrong⌠or worseâŚ
That I was becoming my childâs trigger.
Meanwhile, the outside world is full of opinions. People who mean well, but donât understand. People who say things like, âHave you tried being more strict or consistent?â or âHe wouldnât do that if you didnât allow it.â
And youâre standing there thinking⌠If you only knew how hard Iâm trying.
What shifted for me was realizing thisâŚ
We canât parent our way out of nervous system overload with willpower and good intentions.
Connection doesnât start with the perfect consequence. It starts with regulation.
When I began to truly understand the brain-body connection⌠how stress responses hijack behavior⌠how safety changes everything⌠I stopped chasing âquick fixesâ and started building a calmer, more strategic path forward.
Not just for my child⌠but for me.
Here are a few of the principles I now live and teach - the ones that changed everything:
⢠I stopped trying to âwin the momentâ and started trying to create safety in the moment
⢠I learned to discern the difference between defiance and dysregulation
⢠I focused on root causes: sensory overwhelm, executive functioning gaps, anxiety, unmet emotional needs
⢠I built a simple plan for what to do before, during, and after meltdowns
⢠I practiced co-regulation first - because skills donât stick when a child feels stuck in fight-or-flight
⢠And I gave parents language that actually works⌠because simply telling a child to âcalm downâ has never really been very effectiveâŚit just backfires.
Joining this Neuro-Transformation Training matters to me because I donât want my work to only be encouraging. I want it to be transformational.
Parents donât need more information⌠they need integration.
They need tools that work when theyâre tired, triggered, and on the edge. They need strategies that match what the nervous system is doing in real time.
If youâre a parent who loves your child deeply but feels like youâre tired of walking on eggshells, living on the edge of the next meltdownâŚ
I want you to hear this clearly⌠youâre not failing. Youâre not alone. You donât have to feel lost. You can gain your clarity and confidence. I hope you can feel inspired to take your first step too.
Iâm here because I believe calm is learnable⌠connection is buildable⌠and your home can feel safe again. This is a new layer of growth for me, and Iâm excited to bring what Iâm learning back to the families I serve.
As I am often reminded, sometimes our deepest pain helps us find where we can help others. This isnât just about getting a certificateâŚitâs about transformation so I can really help others do the same.
Thank you
