✨ Stop the parenting power struggles ✨

Ever feel like you and your partner are speaking different languages when it comes to parenting?
Or worse… you’re on opposite sides when your child needs you most?

That’s exactly why I teach the Hand in Hand Parenting Foundations for Professionals course. 💡
Because when both parents have the tools, you stop fighting each other and start working as a team.

➡️ For me, it’s been a game changer. Just this morning, I was triggered by my child and wanted to snap—but I walked away knowing my husband could handle it in a way that fully aligned with my values. That kind of trust changes everything.

And here’s the best part:
👩‍⚕️ If you’re a therapist, you’ll earn 22 CEUs, get certified to run Listening Groups + Parent Resource Groups, and walk away with tools that transform your practice.
👨‍👩‍👦 If your partner isn’t a therapist, I also offer courses for non-professionals so you can both get the same support and learn the tools together.
💬 Plus, you’ll get a free month in the Hand in Hand professional community to keep your growth going.

Ready to stop the cycle of parenting conflicts and start working as a united team?
